  • HOLY -string of explitives-!!! safari on the PC!

    okay, so, yes, i’m one of the, like, 12 people who cares, BUT:i’m cleaning up a site for a friend of mine that i work with who runs a nonprofit.  and he shows me the site on his macbook and there’s some huge glaring layout problems including a gigantic DONATE button smack in the middle of…

  • holy crap-o i can feed into facebook

    file this under: i didn’t know you could do that i am now effectively feeding my blog into facebook.  that’s pretty f’ing spiff. —————- Now playing: “Cat Power – Nude as the News.mp3” via FoxyTunes

  • the suprising relationship between pirating and purchasing

    i found this snippet on slashdot today, which says that p2p downloaders (read: music pirates) buy more music according to a study commissioned by the Canadian government (more and more i’m thinking that, despite popular american opinion, canadians RAWK). now this is something i’ve known for years, because it’s precisely the case for me. with…

  • holy google apps, batman!

    so i was checking my gmail yesterday, i think looking to see if i could route my heritage mail to gmail, or something like that, maybe i was just killing time, when i noticed a thing that said something to the effect of add you domain email here. so, i decided to check that out…

  • jazzsequence subdomains and revised error pages

    so i configured some (more) virtual hosts in apache and redid my custom error pages.  the error pages got reset after apache got updated recently, so i had to redo them.  you can see a 403 forbidden error here and a 404 not found error here. and i also set up the following subdomains: music.jazzsequence.com…

  • another reason the dmv is the ninth circle of hell

    ok, so this would have been better with the visual, but, as it turns out, while i wasn’t looking (read: while it’s been sitting on the desk, not plugged in, acting as a malformed and warped shelf for junk), my scanner up and died.  dead, no pulse, doa, unliving, dead dead dead.  so.  you’ll have…

  • msff

    i’ve added a couple hacks to the site to dissuade viewers from using internet explorer, including a javascript-powered microsoft-free weekend.  back in the early 00’s, microsoft-free friday was a thing.  this was around when firefox was just starting to gain momentum.  there were a couple of ways of implementing msff — one was an apache…

  • it is done…

    i’m not going to publish the link yet until the client officially approves the site, but my first website for heritage is done. i was able to do most of it over the weekend and on my half day friday, overall spending maybe 8-10 hours working on it total. i was happy to find out…

  • first site…

    so the way it works is that i create a photoshop document (psd) of the web site i’ve been assigned to based on the content given to me and a “design interview” (di) with the customer.  the psd is basically what the site will eventually look like when all the html and css coding is…
