AndrewBlogAn experiment of blogging in its natural stateMaking the Switch: TextPattern- February 13, 2004 I've made my decision: I'm going to wait until TextPattern comes around to switch from Movable Type. Most likely, you're wondering "what in the heck is TextPattern" The Basics:Text Pattern is "Textpattern is a server-based system designed to simplify publishing on the web." It's created by Dean Allen and is the backbone of his site, Textism. This immaculate program places a high emphasis on validation to the strictest of W3C standards (but only if you use textile which I'll talk about...http://andrewblog.weblogs.us/archives/013663.html Making the Switch: Apple- February 11, 2004 I'm a PC buff. I've used Windows my whole life, and I know the ends and outs of it, but I've found my self longing for something fresh, something new; something like a Mac. I know that Mac don't have the largest gaming library and they don't give you the ability to upgrade you computer to the extent you would want, but they've intrigued me. I want a Mac. I want one soon! All you long time windows fanatics are probably thinking that I'm out of my mind, but before you judge me "foolish"...http://andrewblog.weblogs.us/archives/014410.html Banner Picture- February 11, 2004 I found a killer banner picture over a SerioComics! I believe he'll let me use it because he's nice like that. Anyways, it a really cool picture of an arrow... Now I just need to decide how to implement it into the banner. Oh yeah, I'm also going to loose the roundness in my banner :-).http://andrewblog.weblogs.us/archives/014914.html The Green River DVD- February 10, 2004 Gary Ridgway, better known as the Green River killer, has the most convictions of murder out of any of serial murderer. He didn't get the death penalty for the 48 women he murder. Instead, he got life in prison because he revealed the locations of the women he murdered through a series of cooperative interrogations. Now those interviews are available for anybody to buy on DVD for $2200(I believe there are 109 DVDs). I watched some clips of this DVD on the news today and I think that this is.http://andrewblog.weblogs.us/archives/014805.html Edges- February 9, 2004 It's the edges of my site that i dislike... I think that's the major thing... i'm fixing it right now. (I know my blog has been really boring the past two days but please bear with me I have some good content coming)http://andrewblog.weblogs.us/archives/014753.html Wishlist- February 9, 2004 For those of you who feel like blessing me with a gift for all the hard work I've done in order to keep you informed with the latest news, I've update my Amazon.com wishlist. Also, you can use this as a way of bribing me to help you with you site or something like that...http://andrewblog.weblogs.us/archives/014682.html Changes- February 8, 2004 My site might look strange for a while because times they are a changing...http://andrewblog.weblogs.us/archives/014672.html Xbox Live hits asia- February 7, 2004 Xbox Live is becoming Asians. They didn't offer any information on pricing, but I fear that it will bomb if the price is anything like the price it is in America. The current $70 price tag in US would come out to 3000 baht in Thailand which is more then a month of rent in an upscale college dorm room (I would know, I've been their)! I sense that this will either be a major success or a major failure.http://andrewblog.weblogs.us/archives/014413.html FrontPage 2003- February 7, 2004 Microsoft's new FrontPage is now more standards friendly. The code is clean but not according to the ads! Dave Shae thinks you should look at line 28.http://andrewblog.weblogs.us/archives/014364.html |
