Introducing the Lifestream

Sunday (14/9/08), 11:44 pm. 1 comment.

A lot of what I was/am trying to accomplish with the Tumbl3 redesign is a certain amount of centralization and connectivity between the various fragments of my online presence. So far I’ve greatly simplified the design to allow for various content types, built and integrated TweetRemote, and have now added a lifestream that runs off FriendFeed.

Besides being an excellent tool for all the stalkers out there, I’m hoping it will prove to be an easy way to share all the cool stuff I find and possibly do around the interwebs. It does not get sent through the RSS feed for this site, so you don’t have to be worried about being overloaded with information. However, if you do want to keep a more watchful eye on it you can subscribe to me on FriendFeed or keep a watch on this feed (or just randomly check the page–some things are just more fun the old-fashioned way).

The code is very easy to set up for any account (really only requires changing one variable), so it may also get a public release in the near future.

What other ways have you seen or used for controlling the fragmentation of online presences due to the social web? Do lifestreams interest you?

Just a little less than a year ago I launched Better-Than-Live AJAX WordPress Search. I felt it was time to get back in the swing of things, so I’m now releasing version 2 of the script.

Making Code Poetry Part I

Sunday (20/8/06), 9:00 pm. 15 comments.

Code is Poetry. It’s a phrase found in WordPress’s footer that should be true but often isn’t. At 9rules somebody asked if code really is poetry–I say that not all code is poetry, but all code should (and can) be poetry.

Whew. That was a lot of buzzwords for one title, wasn’t it? Yeah, yeah, yeah, I know. But hey–if they fit the bill, I can’t do anything about that, can I?

Just signed up for Webvisions last night, it’s gonna be awesome (and in Portland, to boot). If you’ve been thinking about going, now’s the time to sign up–today is the last day for the early bird discount (and students get even more off). I’ve been looking through the schedule and here’s what is lookin’ good to me at the moment:

My $.02 on frameworks

Tuesday (9/5/06), 3:10 pm. 3 comments.

There’s been a lot of commotion lately over the subject of frameworks. You’ve most likely already read them (but there’s the links just incase), and I figured I might as well add my two cents to the mess.

Playing with WordPress Categories

An unfortunate downfall of WordPress’s the_category() is that one cannot define what comes before and after each category.

Allow me to introduce you to my new little app, Postable

Friday (24/3/06), 8:31 pm. 124 comments.

I absolutely hate having to switch all the “< " and ">” signs in my code to “&lt;” and “&gt;”, respectively. I also hate having to write “&amp;” anytime I want to include an ampersand. This makes including code snippets on my blog and whatnot extremely annoying, and today I finally got fed up.
