Fanlisting Conversions
Thanks to inspiration from the Quilting Bee message board, I spent today messing about with fanlistings. I had tried before to convert to Enthusiast 3 and it broke horribly, so I gave up and went back to Fanbase. This time I managed to get all seven of my owned FL’s converted successfully from Fanbase to … Continue reading
I’m on Sorenson
I just installed Sorenson‘s EnVision SL software! I called up VRS and told the interpreter I was just testing, so I know it works. So if anybody wants to call me direct, use my first name at my domain name. I don’t have it set up to use audio, so please make sure you have … Continue reading
Need Wishlist Software
I think I’ve come up with an idea for a project to do after I’m finished teaching myself PHP and MySQL. I want my own damn wishlist software. I’ve been copying my lists into MetaWishlist but it’s not quite what I want. I have tried a gazillion others – seriously, I’ve tried Felicite, Baggle, The … Continue reading
SETI@home Teams
Does anybody have a favorite team for SETI@home? I used to do the project way back when it began (1998?) but I haven’t done it in forever. I’m thinking of starting to run the software again, and I want to join a team but I don’t know which one! I’m considering Amateur Radio Operators, Team … Continue reading
Library Thing
I mentioned Library Thing in a quicklinks post, but I hadn’t had time to fully investigate the site. Now I have, and this definitely merits its own entry. Like all good geeks and smart people, we have a few thousand books sitting around the house. Most are in bookcases, a few are in piles, some … Continue reading
Everybody Shut Up
I am finally fed up enough with the usual Friday chattering and slacking at work that I have turned on Launchcast to try to tune them out. Music is not a major part of my life, so I almost never do this; I also have it incredibly low – I almost can’t hear it when … Continue reading
Bulletin Board Conversion
Tonight I am attempting to convert my community site from PHP-Nuke to Invision Power Board. I tried to just use the PHPbb converter for IPB, but that didn’t work too well. I am presently converting from PHP-Nuke to PHPbb (ironically, I did the reverse quite some time ago), and from there I will try the … Continue reading
Fanlisting Conversion
I just spent the whole morning – about four hours – converting the fanlistings I run from phpFanbase to Fan Admin Plus. It’s still in beta, and I’ve sent in a few bugs that I discovered – in fact I’ve sent quite a few e-mails about it this morning! It took me a while to … Continue reading
My Alaska Journal and Pictures
There! It took me almost an entire workday, but I have gotten all the journal entries set up and the pictures posted. Upgrading Gallery was a little tough, and I haven’t figured out how to customize the style, but it’ll do for now. If you have already read all of the journal entries, you can … Continue reading
Preparing the Journal
I have gotten all of the journal entries typed in, but they are not yet linked up, they don’t have their own category, they’re not illustrated, etc. I was going to use Flickr for the pictures because it makes use of the EXIF date information, but the set feature is not as flexible as I … Continue reading
