Clothes don’t make the man
Oct092003
It hasn’t been a good day for me and clothes. First, when I was getting the milk out of the fridge this morning, I knocked down a little plastic container of salsa, which splattered all over my slacks, got a few drops on my shirt, and a healthy blob which almost went into my left eye (which closed reflexively, just in time). So I had to quickly strip and change clothes before I left for … Continue reading
Simplog 0.9pre1
Oct092003
More news in the blogware software arena. MyPHPBlog has been renamed to Simplog, and release 0.9pre1 is now availble for testing. I used to be a developer on the MPB project (I contributed the RSS feed code and rough initial support for pingback/trackback), and I still keep up with their announcments.

The Bongo Project
Oct032003
A quick update while I have a break between phases of a programming project at work…. The Bongo Project is at least as cool as the Carrier Pigeon Internet Protocol implementation (an implentation of RFC1149, “A Standard for the Transmission of IP Datagrams on Avian Carriers”). A student took up a professor’s challenge to implement the physical layer of the OSI model with bongo drums using a couple of linux boxes with microphones listening for … Continue reading
