Okay, so today I was playing with the final copy of WordPress 1.5, figuring out just how much work needs to be done for me to upgrade and how i’m going to use the new features such as the page management. I don’t think i’ll be using that specific feature because alot of my pages use actual PHP and MySQL to determine the output and the page management feature doesn’t support this.
With the update, i don’t think i’ll change much of the layout, if at all. I’ll be updating a lot of pages such as the portfolio page to contain more information on specific projects, updatin the about page and pretty much redoing both the links section and the gallery.
Recently I just haven’t had the time to write like I would have liked to. Numerous thig such as work, Tafe, and now MyBB 1.0 Gold going in to the private Beta – things have just been so hectic. Not to mention the fun i’ve been having with Tia, fixing a few peoples computers as well as working on the server administration interface for the new Messenger Plus! Custom Sound Messages feature – something really to look forward to.
Now that Apple have once again done a supurb job with the new iPod mini (6gb) as well as the 30gb iPod Photo – they’ve also updated the firmware for my 3G iPod! The long waited features that we saw in the 4G update: Shuffle Songs selection in Main Menu, Music menu item in Main Menu and Support for iTunes 4.7 and later.
Alot of other things have been floating around the internet such as Paris Hiltons phone book.. Why do I roll my eyes at that? *oops*. We also have those stupid things like this, and the stupid virus pretending to be from the FBI.
We also then have this incredibly stupid, arrogant, crap.. I could go on for ever but i’ll leave you to judge it yourself.. Mac Mini: The Emperor’s New Computer which is just a complete load of crap, But i’ll probably rant more on it later.
Managed to get my father to buy me two $14.95 4 port USB 2.0 hubs today, they’re powered and for that price (in AUD) they’re very much worth it. Now when I tell you the brand name is Tevion which is for sale by ALDI stores, i’ll have you know that it is all standard components just with a ‘Tevion’ logo on the case – there isn’t much to a USB hub. It was bloody cheap and apparently someone bought 3 boxes of 20 each! These hubs make it a lot easier for me to quickly hotswap things on my laptop, or even on my desktop..
Peace out, for now..
