Sunday projects

Spent part of the day today upgrading the Child Abuse blog to Movable Type version 3.2. The upgrade process wasn’t too difficult, but there have been some slight changes to the admin sections that’ll take some getting used to, and it’ll take me a few days of use to really get a feel for the new features before I can give you all an educated opinion, but I think the upgrade will be a good thing.

The other project was looking over submitted proposals for the Friends of the Library website. I like what I’m seeing there technology-wise. I think we’ve got some people who share my vision for putting in place the infrastructure for the site to grow into going forward. Now we’ll just have to see if we can communicate that vision to others effectively and whether that’s the plan they’ve envisioned!

And the beauty of having a three day weekend, is that I still have a day to enjoy with my wife after getting that done today!

    Remember how I was going to be playing around with that Ubuntu VMware set-up on the VMware player? Well today I discovered that VMWare player will support wireless connections, which I could have sworn I read somewhere that it didn’t. But that’s not the main point I have. Today, after discovering that, I was trying…

    OK now that our little national diversion is over, can we get to the really important issue of the day? Can we settle the NHL lockout? Please?
