APOD: 2002 January 19 - Stars Without Galaxies: "Using the Hubble Space Telescope, researchers exploring the Virgo Cluster of galaxies have found about 600 red giant stars adrift in intergalactic space. Above is an artist's vision of the sky from a hypothetical planet of such a lonely sun. " | ||

http://www.blogtrack.com/beta/all.yz treats radio categories as independent weblogs. they just went on my aggregators page and make me think to give some fine thought to how i'm dealing with meta-tags and my site organization. the fact is that - yes, categories are weblogs to other people. interesting. the whole thing is an iblog.. but the components become blogs. hmm.. check out the page. | ||

I've been having such fun hacking away on Radio, I just had to buy it. I look back on my early skepticism about UserTalk and cackle. All it took was a big enough dash of Killer App Sauce to make the platform compelling. Radio 8 provided a generous measure of that ol' sauce, and my diggings under the hood haven't disappointed me. Thanks, UserLand! [Deadly Bloody Serious Radio]
Garth - i feel the same way even though underneath there are a lot of feelings that the language and ui, the growth-path, the way the learning curve is managed, the way to extend this thing are just not considerate of people outside their development team. i get the vague sense that there's soo much legacy thinking in this thing, so little chance of getting a birds eye view of it - that i'm taking a step back in time to '93. the outliner architecture however is brilliand and the functionality - however tweaky - provides me with relative ease - after moderate pain - to feel ok about building an information space in this framework; yes, definitely worth the $40. definitely a v0.8 foundation product for a new way of working with the net. this is what we all wanted in '94 but couldnt quite see it | ||

have a meeting with a group of consultants next week and it seems to me that i should go away for a day before or else my mind will go on blathering about the trends its wrapping itself around now that i'm all hibernated out... there's abuse potential here too and with the aggregators doing what they are doing i think i have to chat up some people in sebastopol to get the take of more seasoned minds on this (whatever you think it is) phenomena. its a bit 'blue' per wilber, imo. we'll see. </end spill... see if catg now posts :)> | ||

interesting bug preventing my current changes from propagating!
i'm refering to xml.gif as xml.jpg and the icon shows up in the local browser and yet its a gif on disk. at the same time the event log says the .jpg file is not there. that's true :) who's hiding the bug here? ...and why oh why is there no .png support? | ||

the lighter templates i'm rolling out make the editing process much swifter; not webhub speed, but cheers! anyhow. i'll finish the rollout tomorrow and spend the rest of the day on mission... punctured by a massage, i think. | ||

spent a good part of the evening biting into css. there will be nightmares in userland as the many many places that 'dont work right' for css get tweaked.
my pet peave... i can not use expressions in a css file AND i can not get syntax highlighting in them when i edit them as text.. a kludge, ahem solution, might be to designate a dir for txt as css.. or a #pref directive to tell the render? to process certain files anyhow. from a programming pov, i've just about had it with the opacity of this box. not even for loops are explained in one spot, there are no examples with, for example, the string functions to cut and copy. i can do what i want, yes. but the environment sucks time in many ways that i would have been ok with 10 years ago, but not today. .. overall that's ok. i'm a user here and noone's paying me to help them see how many obstacles they've put into their user's path ;-) | ||

radio lost the category assigment for my last 8 posts before crashing this afternoon after i had been editing severely broken html and macros in the js editor.
i fixed them manually and wish there was anm integrity checker for the db. that, and a sane way of given the editor a new layout and default presentation mode. it would also be good to have the freedom to choose checkboxes, radiobuttons, single and multi-select listboxes for the category selection. they are all the same from a POST pov. well, almost. | ||
