0xDECAFBADIt's all spinning wheels and self-doubt until the first pot of coffee.Queue everything and delight everyone- (Found July 8, 2008 ) This is a blog post I've had simmering in my brainmeats for well over a year or two. I'm suddenly inspired to break blog-radio-silence and get it out of my head. From Let the microblogs bloom - RussellBeattie.com: Once this is widely accepted (and I'm sure there are many that would ...http://decafbad.com/blog/2008/07/04/queue-everything-and-delight-everyone Metablogging- (Found July 8, 2008 ) Back in November, I built decafbad recaffeinated using Tinderbox. Through it, I wanted to finally get my head around playing with the web publishing features of Tinderbox and I hoped that after the Yak Shaving, I would enjoy the results enough to be motivated to continue pushing out ...http://decafbad.com/blog/2008/02/01/metablogging amazing visitors- (Found July 8, 2008 ) And I'm amazed that people seem to still visit this blog, despite the near-complete inactivity. That reminds me, I really should do something with that MyBlogLog API sometime I'm totally digging what Kent Brewster is doing with it.http://decafbad.com/blog/2008/02/01/amazing-visitors Greatest Hits Vol. 1, the Tinkery Bits- (Found July 8, 2008 ) As you may have noticed, I've been shaking things up around here a little. Sorry for turbulence in the feeds! I've moved to a new server, and I've been trying out Movable Type again, but with mixed luck. Why Because I've been using WordPress for a few years, ...http://decafbad.com/blog/2008/04/26/greatest-hits-vol-1-the-tinkery-bits Greatest Hits Vol. 2, the Babble Bits- (Found July 8, 2008 ) Following right on the heels of Greatest Hits Vol. 1 is another volume, this time including the entries that were more made of babble or ramble and not so much with code. Again I welcome additions, comments, criticisms, and complaints. .entry-content ul li font-style: italic; .entry-content ul ...http://decafbad.com/blog/2008/04/26/greatest-hits-vol-2-the-babble-bits In retrospect- (Found July 8, 2008 ) When I first created this blog back in February 2002, I was talking to myself and I knew it. But, that didn't really matter: Since becoming newly digital in 1983, I'd already spent years plugging away at personal projects big and small, frequently abandoned, talking to myself all the ...http://decafbad.com/blog/2008/04/26/in-retrospect Go Midwest, Young Man!- (Found July 8, 2008 ) Reminiscent of this time almost two years ago, it's been a busy period so far. I've been working on another book, entitled Professional JavaScript Frameworks, and have changed jobs twice since leaving Yahoo! in early April. I think I'm done bouncing around now, though: As you may or ...http://decafbad.com/blog/2008/05/14/go-midwest-young-man Markdown, Oh the Humanity- (Found July 8, 2008 ) I use Markdown to write for this blog, and I don't think I could write much online without it. (Of course, that's not saying much latelybut nevermind that for now.) Although I do appreciate all the effort put toward enhancing on the web, I'm not a fan of WYSIWYG ...http://decafbad.com/blog/2008/05/18/markdown-oh-the-humanity Week 3 at Mozilla- (Found July 8, 2008 ) So, it's getting to the end of my third week at Mozilla, and I'm a part of the Planet nowhooray! Having gotten a membership into that club, I feel like I should start making some noise about what I'm doing at work. Having stayed mostly quiet about day ...http://decafbad.com/blog/2008/05/22/week-3-at-mozilla Firefox 3 Download Day Mega Widget- (Found July 8, 2008 ) Update: Oh, and rumor has it that this widget will switch to reporting on downloads, rather than pledges, once the main event has begun. Update 2: It didn't quite go like clockwork, but this widget is now showing estimated downloads by countries, rather than pledges. Thanks to the completion of bug 435967, ...http://decafbad.com/blog/2008/06/16/firefox-3-download-day-mega-widget |
