I’ve updated the look of my site. I think it’s a bit more modern. I also got a bit fancy with my background image. I’m obsessed with randomness, so i wanted to make sure I could have a random background image. That part is easy.

< ?
include_once('bggenerator.php');
$bg_file = background_name($_COOKIE['width'],$_COOKIE['height']);
?>
body { background: url(”< ? print $bg_file; ?>“) fixed; }


FINALLY!!!

Centerflow has been a work in progress for months now. I’ve gotten a good amount of feedback who like the tool, but have trouble installing or configuring it. Ever the problem solver, I decided that the next step for centerFLOW was to follow Wordpress’ lead and offer the web application as a service for people to signup and use, instead of downloading and installing

Feel free to signup at Centerflow Signup

I’ve released a new version of Centerflow. It’s pretty much ready to go.

Before, the Projects and Messages model were using scaffolding. I’ve changed it so that the Projects model can now edit, merge and delete properly. Deleting a project will also optionally merge tasks into the parent project (unless, of course there IS not parent project)

Messages no longer use the scaffold page. I jacksoned the Message listing so that editing messages happens inline, much in the way tasks are edit.

Last year, many states (including my home state of California) moved up their primaries to happen in early February. The idea was that the earlier their primary happened, the more influence their votes would have. Ironically, the exact opposite has. “Super” Tuesday didn’t really change much. The only thing that has happened is that the later states, such as next weeks “Crucial” Tuesday with the highly populated states of Texas and Ohio have more impact than before. Looks like the idea has backfired.

For the past couple of months I have been working on a project management tool using CakePHP.
It’s now available for download so check it out.

I’m watching CNN right now and in the most recent democratic debate they noticed that the democratic candidates have much of the same stands on issues. How is that a big suprise? They are part of the same political party. What’s more the “talking heads” opened up their remarks by talking about how Hilary Clinton is speaking more from her nose than her diaphram; Barack Obama was more “at ease” and had a lot of warmth.

Anderson Coopers “360 Raw Politics” is not very good.

Eric Meyer, writer of many CSS books, and overall CSS guru held an interview for blog.lunarpages.com. They used some of my questions, even!

I took a personality test tonight. Turns out I am an ENFP or Extraverted iNtuitive Feeling Perceiving kind of guy. One description said I was a “Champion Idealist.” I like the way that sounds. These tests are frightenly accurate. Here’s a summary:

The following comes partially from the archetype, but mostly from my own dealings with ENFPs.]

I just installed WebJukebox from CoffeeCup software. It’s great .
