I am now making my personal site Zwiki-aware. Then I'm going to experiment with moving some or all of my site over toa Zwiki model. [Dan Shafer]
I know about Zope, of course, and I've seen Wiki's in action, but I'm not familiar with Zwiki. I'll have to check it out.

...I would submit that Frontier (and by extension, Radio, or the frameworks that comprise Radio and Frontier) contain a bug in the way they handle this particular pieces of the API. [Steve Zellars]
Exactly what I said. If Frontier and Radio are messing with the opaque data structures of Apple Events then they get what they deserve. I think Apple has done an amazing job getting legacy code to work on Mac OS X. But I can't imagine how they could make this part of things any easier. I suppose they could have predicted the move to OS X back when they came up with the Apple Events API :)

My favorite ER character is Dr. Romano. He comes off as such a jerk. And, in some ways, he is. But I think he is the most realistic character on the show. He is tough and sometimes mean. But he's really good at what he does and frequently fair (though not always).

Last night's episode of ER was quite good. But I think I've grown tired of watching it. I am interested to know how they "get rid" of Mark Greene (as this is Anthony Edwards last year). So I will definitely be watching until the end of the season. But I may not watch next season. I've been watching almost from the beginning. It has always been a strong show and many episodes have left my on the edge of my seat. I believe, however, that they have involved their main characters in too many medical stories of their own. The Dr. Greene character, for example, has had to deal with a physical attack, the death of his father (and mother), a brain tumor (that he will probably now die of), the drug overdose of his daughter, and... I 'm sure there is more. Other characters have had an equal number of crises.

A friend of mine just posed this question: "What would you do if your vocabulary consisted only of I love you and fuck you?"

Also on the list of interesting posts from yesterday is Steve Zeller's comment about the Mac OS X Apple Event Manager breakage. [...] What a hoop to jump through. It's hard to imagine that changing our Apple Event code will generate any more sales. [Scripting News]
It looks like what Steve is saying is that you should be using the API's as specified and if you are then there won't be any trouble. But if you aren't then you'd better start or your apps could break. I snipped Dave's rant about how his apps never break with newer versions of Windows. I wonder if that is true. I wrote a major app for System 7 of the Macintosh and it stull runs under Mac OS X. Actually, so did Dave. It's called MORE. I can still run it today.

I went back and looked at my first Radio post and I see that I had a misspelling: "compliment" should have been "complement". Oh well. I'm not changing it now.

I've been using Radio for almost two months now. I never thought I'd keep writing. Like everything I try, I figured I'd be passionate about it for a few days and then move on to something else. But that didn't happen. I also thought that if I stopped writing for the few days I would be at Joshua Tree, I wouldn't start again when I got back. But I did.

No, I bet that it cost them approximately $300 to make the case and that doesn't include the innards. And that probably isn't the price they'd charge somebody else.

I finally got to see the aluminum cube computer case that sent the net all abuzz yesterday. It does look cool. And at approximately $300 US I might get one just for fun :) I assume that's just for the case. I'd have to get the internals myself. Hmm. Looking at the site more closely makes me think that migbt not be true. They list hardware specs. It's Athlon-Inside, but I guess I could put Linux on it.

I can't believe it's March already. Where has the time gone.

I'm still planning to redesign the look of my weblog. I had wanted to get rid of tables and use CSS, as so many others have, but I tried some experiments and I found that Radio messes with my templates as it renders my sight. For one thing, I saw some stray <p> tags in there that I'm sure I didn't put in. Things did not look right at all. I'm sure that if I played with it long enough I could get it to work. But I'm going to try something else instead. I'm going to start with the "woodlands" theme and work my way backwards, hacking it into what I want.
