Back to computers
Busy busy busy. Hacking all kinds of goodness. I am going to attempt to add multi users and multi lists to the tada list clone. It occurs to me that while I get some use out of it the way it is, it shouldn’t take long to add those features, and people might actually be compelled to use it if I put them in there. Has anyone tried it? What do people think about subbmitting it to freshmeat?
I ran into a stumbling block on my other super secret app a month ago. It’s weird, it’s not a programming hangup, it’s something else entirely, though at this point I’d rather not say what it is…though I do plan a future post about it. I didn’t want people to think I abandon it, I think about it just about everyday. However this block makes working on it seem lame right now, however there may be a way out…sorry for being cryptic on that point, I’ll clear that up soon.
At work I have been working on a admin frontend to proftpd, with a mysql back end. This is has been a lot of fun, though I did notice, this is the third app in a row where I used my ajax library. It has a fatal flaw in it that causes you to have to write some really awkward server side code. That ends today. Talking to Eric, is always a good thing, even if I don’t get an answer from him, usually the act of going over the problem with him and listening to his line of questioning will often give me a head slap moment when I see the error of my ways. Perhaps someday I will have slapped all the dumbness out :)
