Sunday projects

ByMike McBride Reading Time: 1 minute

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!

    Long time readers may remember this post, when I requested Law-firm IT folks take some time and train their users not to send links to documents from their document management system when sending them outside their firm.

  • Gmail Remote Command

    This seems like a rather insecure way to remotely control your PC. Afterall, anyone can send emails to your gmail account with “keywords”. Unless you can use long, randomly-generated, sets of characters. Even then, if you really have a need to control your PC remotely, learn to use a VNC program. Tags: GmailRemoteCommand Follow these…

    You’ll of course remember a few days ago when Chris posted his Blogger’s Manifesto, right? Well now David Weinberger has parodied that into the Real Blogger’s Manifesto, which is pretty funny. Then, Mike Sanders kicked in with his question about the original manifesto; how Chris can routinely judge others while asking not to be judged…

    Where else can you read an intricate analysis of Mariner first basemen’s ball tossing habits , followed closely in my RSS feeds by Doc’s entries from yesterday, including a detailed analysis of the Ford Mustang as less than useful and a story of a guy pissing all over a bathroom stall? I guarantee you’re not…
