Last week I went through one and a half hellish days of interviewing candidates for my replacement – one position for PHP and another for the research coordinating. Larry and I talked to over a dozen people. It wasn’t bad, per-se, but I wouldn’t do so many all at once again. It really made me …

DFL major release!
Lots of news over here at the Digital Fish Library. We just moved the production, qa, and dev staging sites to our new servers over the weekend, and at the same time made some major updates public that will surely allow the website to grow with few pains over the next several months. 1) Family …
Changing scenery… Downtown!
It was a bitter sweet week this week. I took a job with a company in downtown (San Diego), thus marking my remaining two weeks at UCSD. Sweet, of course, because I’m finally at the level where my skills are (very) marketable. Bitter? I’ve been in research for over four years now – under Dr. …
Mr. Fish Lite is coming
If you’re interested in the DFL project, you’ll be happy to know that German and I are tasked with a bit of a crack programming job in the next week or so. Actually, we told our boss the idea we had about making a “Lite” version of the data viewer program that runs through some …
php|architect
I just wanted to plug the php|architect (phparch.com) Magazine. It’s not too expensive and there are a lot of good articles each month.

I likely won’t be there for the conference, but German will – he is the first author, after all. DFL Publications.
Glossary links, anyone?
We’ve all been to those sites before – the ones that dubiously insert advert links on keywords throughout the page. It’s pretty annoying because they often have nothing to do with the reason(s) why you were on that page to begin with. So now here I am, telling you how to do it easily. But I assure you – my intentions are completely pure!
Semantic Research: Knowlege Organization
My lab had the opportunity to meet with the folks over at SemanticResearch. Overall, definitely a very intriguing company. But first things first: their offices are located IN the MTv Real World San Diego house, which as some of you might know – is awesome! I really don’t know how they get any work done …
DFL site update
I’ve been making a lot of minor updates to the DFL website. I finally got around to making the site look decent in Internet Explorer. I really should have done it earlier. The only major rendering differences between the Safari/Opera/Firefox camp and IE is the location of the main page block: IE positioned against the …
