Album Of The Month - Aug 07


It’s this one…

Arctic Monkeys
Favourite Worst Nightmare
I’m playing it heaps and just loving it. The highlights would be ‘Fluorescent Adolescent’ and ‘Do Me A Favour.’ Over and out ;)

Not announcing ColdFace


Okay this is it… I’m working on a little project called ‘ColdFace’. There I said it. Now I have to make it happen or look like a doofus for talking it up.
Thanks to BiteMan and Edifier for (both) suggesting the name ColdFace. I had another in mind and I might still change it. Because I [...]

Album Of The Month - Jul 07


I’ve listened to very little over the last month… it’s a sad state of affairs. I’m picking this CD although I’ve only listed to it once. A few hours ago I didn’t know of a ‘new’ Elliot Smith album :) Maybe others don’t know.

Elliot Smith
New Moon
I have no problems plugging a posthumous release. It’s [...]

CF’s CreateObject() on GoDaddy


The fact that GoDaddy disable the ColdFusion CreateOject function is a real pain. I’ve previously blogged about it, as have a number of others. Scott Pinkston does a good summary of how to code around it.
It continues to annoy people who then vent about it on Sean’s lengthy CF GoDaddy blog entry. And fair enough [...]

Album Of The Month - Jun 07


OMG it’s almost 2am… OMG it’s mid July already!

The Bees
Octopus

Linux, done!


The move from Windows to Linux was really smooth. I was pleasantly surprised. It took about 2 hours and although I made backups of everything, I really didn’t need to. All files and databases were preserved perfectly and Wordpress started working properly. Hence the new banner image, thanks go to iTunes and mspaint. This has [...]

On the move


I’m already over trying to make Wordpress run on Windows (argh GoDaddy). They’ve got me, I’m upgrading my account and moving to Linux hosting. If my backups work properly, this blog will be resurrected on the new platform in a few days. I’ll then be able to do ‘fun’ stuff like customize the blog banner. [...]

Album Of The Month - May 07


I haven’t done a proper introduction yet. Oh well no biggie.
Album Of The Month (AOTM) is exactly as it sounds. Each month I’ll choose an album and do a small commentary about it. A blog post once a month is not much to ask. If my blog is only displaying the AOTM entries, then I’m [...]

ColdFusion - turn the logging up to 11


A wee while ago Robin Hilliard blogged some log file tips for Flex and ColdFusion (CF). Bring Flex Data Services (FDS) in to the mix and you may actually pull your hair out.
Open neo-logging.xml for editing, here’s a few more tips…
Pop it up
An alternative to running CF in a terminal/console is to enable the ColdFusion [...]

A quick dig at Digg


So Digg had this cool contest. Build a Flex/Flash/Apollo application using a Digg API. Nice! Who wouldn’t want to do that.
Here’s where Digg fails to impress - the contest is only for US residents. Why do ‘they’ always do that? Isn’t this the Internet, man?
