Today I set up FeedBurner for the site. While it is not “active” for the site yet. By active I mean that I have not added a plugin to or changed the code in the template to show the new url. I could possibly add it before the new theme or when the new theme [...]

Google SoC
Today I found out that google announced the projects for their Summer of Code. This has only been my first year of Computer Science but oh man I am going to apply for some positions. Now I am not going to try for positions that would be impossible for me at this time. Some of [...]
My processes of making a theme
I started work on the new design for the site tonight. My process might be a little weird though. I started off by creating all of the php files needed. Then I went on to look at how the default theme for WordPress was written. From there I re-wrote some of the code to do [...]
Thoughts about the new design
I have been doing some brainstorming on what the new design would look like. I am actually going to draw out the look before i sit down and build on my computer. My main focus is simplicity, thats how I have always been with things. That is probably on my desktop I currently have 4 [...]
Today
Since most of my tests are finished I continued my journey to learn php. It has been pretty interesting already, I just started learning about arrays, the nice thing is that we just went over them in my java class. I also cleaned up my mac a bit. I used monolingual to strip out all [...]

I have the synergy folder inside the applications folder. I use an [...]
Ideas and more ideas
On what to do with the new theme. I have not started the actual putting the pieces together. This is more of a brainstorming process now. It would be nice if the site had OpenID support, there are plugins for WordPress that allow users to login with their OpenID. Essentially what they do is when [...]
Some happenings today
Firefox 3 Beta 4 was released today. I have it running on my mac. Wow the interface fits better with the overall look of OS X then before. Most of my plugins do not work with this new build, but I expected that with all of the changes. Yes I did go in about:config and [...]
Something cool about OS X
A few days ago I found out some of the little things osx has to offer. I was thinking about learning Ruby on Rails and found out that 10.5 Leopard already had RoR built in. Wow thats cool, I did not need to go out and figure out how to get that set [...]
Adventures in php
I have started to learn php. So far it is pretty similar to the java that I have done in school. What makes it even easier to learn is that my mac had apache and php5 on it already. This allows me to not have to upload files to see if what i have done [...]
