Yep, I finally got around to consolidating the blogs. I tried to maintain as much backwards compatability as feasible, though. alpha-geek.com/left and alpha-geek.com/right are still there, and the different RSS/RDF feeds are in place for those sites (as they were). As a matter of fact, there is many different feeds for each category (RSS .91and 2.0, RDF, and Echo 0.1). So, if all you want to read is my Perl postings, just suscribe to that feed.

If you notice anything "wonky" (technical term) with the HTML, CSS, or various 97 different types of feeds, post a comment. I'll fix 'er up.

Your right side navbar sucks when there aren't enough comments for a story. It wraps around the bottom all the way to the left border.

You should fix that.

On a totally unrelated note, I came here late at night to find your photo-gallery webapp design posts, and make a comment I'm now going to place here. I was browsing through digital camera reviews (still have that bug), and I came across some guys gallery, which had a very cool feature. Rather than popping up new windows from a thumbnail, the picture opens in your browser like you may expect, but these pictures are special: they're hyperlinks to "window.history.back()" (whatever it is, I didn't look. Same number of navigation clicks as a popup, but no popup.

Thought that was cool, and if I were to throw up a gallery, that's now how I'd do it. Just thought I'd share that.

Off to OSCON? Did that fall through?

And where did the Scott comments go?

I don't know how to prevent that using CSS. I would have to put it in a table, but I am trying not to use all-encompassing tables.

Yes, goddamned secretary. I had the passes to the convention, but no hotel or flight bookings. (No one ever accused her of being a genius.) So, with still 1.5-2 weeks to prepare, I handed her URL's for the booking. That never happened because Lev, CWRU's CIO, inked a deal [hmmm... this might actually be something I should not be blogging because he hasn't issued the big press release]... well, he inked a deal with an ERP vendor who is about to get bought out by a big database company. These ERP arrive on the scene this Thursday. Things like "vacations" or "training" or "waltzing in at 10:30" are going to have to stop while the project gets off of the ground.

They've been removed. Scott started bitching about several of them as they might possible be "taken out of context" and/or "misinterpreted by his better half." Rather than try to weed through them all and catch the incriminating articles, they've been removed.

That was very cryptic of you, J$. I have no idea what you could possibly be talking about.
