My brain hurts..

I think maybe I strained a muscle in my cranium somewhere with all this work the last few days. Let’s recap, shall we?

In the past few days I’ve added an RSS feed, an Email subscription list, Forum system, downloaded two freeware news aggregators, tested them and wrote up an article reviewing them, spent countless hours going over the scripts for the statistics, to no avail, and spent a few more hours evaluating other potential stats scripts, in case I can’t figure out what’s going on with these. (To no conclusions as of yet) And I spent some time cleaning up some of the database stuff that you won’t see, but that bugged me when dealing with them.

So now I’m realizing that I’ve not even read other blogs or paid any attention to the outside world except for the 3 hours I spent at the Blue Jackets game last night. Luckily, it’s a weekend and I probably haven’t missed much.

Anyway, I hope that all of these prove to be useful to some folks. That’d make it worth all the extra effort! And it would encourage me to keep improving on it, as of now some of it is a little rough around the edges. So I’m off to catch up on some blogs then to a family gathering to celebrate my brother’s 17th birthday and finally to come home and meet up with my wife, who’s been visiting her family all weekend, and spending some quality time with her. See ya’!

    Here’s what I don’t get. Everyone gets the occasional stupid, downright offensive comment, right? Why then do some bloggers make such a big deal over them? Why do they engage these people in an argument, or publicly expose their IP address or whatever other information they can get hold of? What purpose does it really…

    A post with a bullet, or three. * Firefox’s update went pretty smoothly on my laptop, it had one little hiccup on my work desktop. After restarting Firefox, the Clippings extension threw up a script error. Disabling Clippings and reinstalling it fixed the problem. BTW, Clippings is a very handy tool when your helpdesk software…

  • OPML Editor

    I downloaded and played around a bit with Dave’s OPML Editor last night because I thought I might have use for an online outliner. You can see the result here. I think it’s a decent tool, and useful for a lot of things, but I’m not sure it’s the right tool for what I want…

  • Tech blogs

    In response to that last post, Craig emailed and asked if I would recommend some tech blogs that are good for keeping up with the news. Well, since I know darned well that if I started listing tech blogs I’d leave somebody out I figured I’d do two things. First, I’d point you to the…

  • Back, sort of..

    The abuse site is back, sort of. I have a copy from back around the 1st of September loaded right now, entries after that are around but I’m going to have to reinstall MT and rebuild everything so a lot of stuff doesn’t actually work. I won’t post anything there yet, so hopefully if anyone’s…

  • The missing question

    When I agreed to do that segment with Kevin Devin from In the Trenches, he sent me a list of possible questions, so I would have a pretty good idea of what he was looking for. There were a number of those questions that I wanted to answer, and take advantage of the opportunity to…
