He’s a coding fool..

OK, good night’s sleep last night, mood much better, let’s get to blogging! 🙂

The coding fool I’m talking about, by the way is Josh, aka nf0. In the last few days he’s written a couple of really useful scripts, eBayTools, which lets you “take a list of items, search ebay, and create an RSS feed with the results”, and MtForums which “will grab the latest topics from the Movable Type forums and convert them to RSS for consumption in your favorite aggregator.”

Both look really useful, I may have to add them to my ever-growing to do list!

    Next time you’re going to listen to PhantomFM at work, you might want to remember that as an Irish station, they aren’t beholden to the same FCC censors that US stations are. You probably want to shut the door to the office before someone walks by only to hear “F*** you, I won’t do what…

    Just an update on some things I’ve been doing. Angela already wrote about the Roomba, so I’ll leave that alone, other than to say, as a gadget type of guy, I’m fascinated by watching it work. (Of course, the whole point is that it works while you’re doing something else, so I need to break…
