First off, I’ve been having some problems getting things up and running due to a few errors in the code. Tried some of the fix suggestions by Andi Gutmans here, but to no avail. I also didn’t try too hard to correct these problems. After all, I was more interested in seeing how the code …

Newsvine – out of beta
Well folks, Newsvine is finally out of private beta! It’s a great spin on aggregating news over the net. First, it claims to put wire news up faster than any other site because it skips all the editorial processes that most news websites (think CNN) go through before anything makes a page. Thousands of articles …
Incremental backups with rsync… UPDATE
One week later the scripts seems to be doing their job just fine. The primary server is around 56GB right now, and each day is taking 150-160MB in updates.
DFL Beta
The new DFL Beta site is up. It’s finally at a place where the other collaborators can begin working to add content without me having to be an intermediate. It’s a little sparse in the fish department right now, but that’s up to our friends down at SIO to do for us – write roughly …

PHP Collaboration Project
I listened to the php|architect Pro PHP podcast, Jan 26 episode, the other day. In it there was an interview with Andi Gutmans about PHP6 and the “new” PHP Collaboration Project. There are three parts to this project: 1) A PHP Framework 2) Eclipse IDE integration for PHP (plugin) 3) Best practices. A few points: …
WordPress 2.0 Final released
WordPress 2.0 final was released today. Since you’re at this blog, you’ve already seen it in action. I’ve read some comments on Digg where people are pretty happy with it – especially the spam zapper. http://www.wordpress.org/
ApacheCon Photos
I’m sorry this is such a lame post, but I’m in one of Chris Shiflett’s photos before Rasmus’s talk at ApacheCon. This Photo Me: The second person from the left, sitting down. You can really only see the back of my head, and my shoulders, but I’m physically in-front of the camera man. Rasmus: the …
