Oh, hai2u.Well, several friends from the real world asked me to put together a guide for the n00b web developer.. so here it is. By no means should this be considered an all inclusive 'i can haz websitez' tutorial. I'm not going to teach you how to write code. Go figure that part out for yourself. What I will cover is the basics of setting up your development environment so that you can start

So my daughter asked to see my website. I showed her my blog and she said she didn't like it and the colors needed to change. She's 3. I opened the color editor and we she picked the colors for everything.I'll fix it later.. she's having a blast messing with it. Back to normal.

This is more or less a list of things I consider "broken" or "needs better implementation" about wildflower.. basically a list of things I'll attempt to address in my branch of wildflower unless someone else beats me to it. Just a preliminary brain dump, don't expect any pearls of wisdom here.Wildflower Post/Page PublisherIn TinyMCE Editor, insert image tool has awkward selection method.

I took these photos back in October when I was working at Gelb. The idea was to use the Google Mini to power a PDF search for one of Gelb's dashboards. I had difficulty getting it installed though and left the company before the project was finished. Here are the pix though...

Ok, so after over a week of brokenness and screwed up Apache Brad and I finally diagnosed a problem i've been having with XAMPP.Here's what happened / Symptoms:I was working with wildflower and wanted to try a branch I had downloaded from GitHub. Well, somehow during archive extraction the .htaccess files did not get copied over correctly. So I jumped into the terminal and was (rather carelessly)

Update! Code at Git Hub works. I'll update this page once a few bugs are taken care of.Wildflower is a CMS written in CakePHP. It's ao frickin simple to use as a base for my applications that I showed it to my boss on Monday ( I had figured out how to extend the admin interface for my own models which I had baked using ModelBaker. I used the difference viewer in Netbeans to merge the baked models

My boss just referred me to the 'Getting Real' eBook by 37Signals. I skimmed through it and was intrigued by the 'less is more' approach they have to software development. It's perfect for start-ups like my own company, Reflection Technologies. I just thought I would post a link to the eBook for my own future reference and for anyone else who might stumble across my blog..From the 37Signals

The debate about what counts as a living thing is fuelled today by the discovery of the first virus that is able to fall "ill" by being infected with another virus. the discovery of a giant virus that itself falls ill through infection by another virus seems to suggest they too are alive, highlighting how there is no definition of what is 'living'.read more | digg story

The company I work for has, yet again, won 2 Crystal Awards from the American Marketing Association - Houston Chapter. The first award was for our Experience Management process that we helped MD Anderson to develop. This process helps MD Anderson know how patients feel about the care they receive through a series of online surveys, focus groups, and so on. See also, Experience Mapping."Marketing

Well it's been a while since I posted something here.. so lets see. Oh yes, Icarus is alive again and will be serving as our media tower. w00t.After almost a year of downtime I finally figured out that the stupid PSU had died. I replaced it with a heavy duty PSU from a 4U server I happened to have laying around ( I know, I know.. who the hell just keeps 4U servers laying around..but w/e.). After

This is a demonstration of a revolutionary war era musket done by Dr. Livingston, Professor of History at Montgomery College in The Woodlands, Tx.If you have to take a history class, I highly suggest you take one of his courses. He has to be one of the most energetic educators I’ve had the pleasure to learn from.w00t4bagpipes ;)

Ubuntu kicks ass. All I have to say is Ubuntu 7.10 Gutsy Gibbon is kicking ass, taking names, and chewing bubble gum all at once! I've got to say that this operaing system gets better and better with each new version and continues to be a shining example of the best that the Free/Open Source Soft community has to offer. Being the outspoken free software advocate that I am, I've taken the time to

War on Terror, etc etc.. silly fool.Don't let the door hit you on the ass on the way out.I saw these videos on youtube that really just got me pissed off....

We had a great meeting last night at the Ubuntu Houston group. We had 6 people, which is about average for our meetings. I think we can do better though. Next month I would like to see 10 people at the meeting.We talked about Server virtualization using VMWare, Conversion success stories in both the business world the home pc arena, building firewalls from "junk" PC's, the difference between

It's election year and I've been devouring every bit of political nuggets I can get my hands on... man this year is going to be a total fiasco. Obama and Clinton have all the none-republicans all sorts of polarized, the general consensus in the country is that the douchebag neo-cons need to gtfo, and to top it off: we are still heavily involved in a highly unpopular war.I'm really suprised that
