So, work has switched over to mainly application tweaking. This is a nice break because it doesn't require a lot of design, or thought. It's really just bug fixing, and stuff like "adjust this image so it's 4 pixels over in the negative x direction."

Anyway, I've been using trillian astra for a while. I was a trillian pro user ever since Miranda stopped being updated on the AIM side. The primary dev, snaphat, freaked out because he was the only guy working on it. So he left to focus on school, and I went over to Trillian.

Astra is pretty nice, but its web-side (primary new feature) seems a little lacking. It's just difficult to get the "extra options" to work nicely. The web-trillian is written in flash (heart) and runs well as far as flash-apps are concerned.

See, I get my own little trillian signature. It's supposed to show all my connections. I have personalized it, but none of them show up. Luckily, Trillian has focused a lot on the main app too. They have file transfers working almost perfectly, now!

 That's all for now. I'll be updating more often now that I have stuff working.

Yeah, so it's been forever (as always).

 Bull Session is the company I know co-own and work for (if you've missed that). We've made our first product, and are currently testing the market to see what we should do next. I've been spending the past week doing spikes of different technologies. This is the fun part of the job!

So, I may be a bad person... I went to Barnes and Noble today and left feeling pretty good about myself. I walked in, found some good python and Actionscript 3.0 books . I took the ISBN numbers (why do we have two ISBN numbers now?), browsed to half.com, found the books at half (how it gets its name) the price, and purchased them INSIDE of Barnes and Noble. I did feel a little guilty, so I bought two reference manuals (totaling $20).

My smart phone has totally changed the way I shop and act. I now know where I am at any time, I know the price of everything online. I feel like an empowered person. I really like writing code on and for my phone! I have python and C# on my phone, so I test small ideas on the go! The only problem come when I want to get away. It's like telecommuting. At first it's amazing! Your office is in your room. But after a week, you begin to realise that you can't ever get away from your work.

I also installed Doom-CE and Worms world party on my phone. It's nice being able to play games on my phone without having to pay a ton of money. My old vx9800 was based on Brew , which requires every app be registered to Brew (BDS) before it can be run (registration costs money). Since Brew requires registration, Open Source community has been slow to develop for it (causing J2ME to take off like wildfire).

Firefox tab effects and stylish (get stylish themes here). Get it, and be happy.

My wedding plans are going very well. I am currently planning our honeymoon. Maui sounds like a lot of fun.

Thanks all for now! Later! 

Well, it's been a while since I updated my blog... So here we go.

I got a car, I got a woman, I got a project, and I got tired. I got rested, I got more tired. I got a flat, I got a spare.

That's about it. I'm going to be adding a new project to my projects page soon. It's called ADMIN (Adam & Dawn Movie Internet Navigation) , and yes, I know that acronym is a stretch.

I'm currently working on adding chat to it so Dawn and I can talk to eachother.

I'll be updating more soon about the startup I've been working on. Until then, go play on ADMIN . It's linked to IMDB. I was originally using a webservice to grab in the info, but the requests were taking 2-5 seconds each... so I just wrote my own. 

Later!
