BookCrossing RingMix #1

Over at the Dutch BookCrossing forum, there was the idea that anyone interested could join the 'MusicRing', where every participant would compile a cd (either mixed or with seperate tracks) and those cd's would, once a month, be passed on to the next participant. This is a perfect way to learn about new music you'd normally not find out about. My cd is now finished. It's mixed (well, tracks flow into each other, not beatmixed), and contains 16 tracks: 1. Beefcake - Untitled 1 2. Eboman - Sample Jazz 3. Suki Takahasi - The Public School 4. Eminem - Lose Yourself 5. Carl, Tomas Danko, Eminem - I'm sorry Eminem 6. Tobiah - I love your music 7. Daft Punk - One More Time 8. Girls On Top - I wanna dance with numbers 9. Bitcrush - Have you lost your way 10. Mercurial - March of the Lemmings 11. Metaxu - 01091939 Warsaw 12. Urawa - Assembly 13. Somatic Responses - Spatial Awareness 14. Deceptikon - Bossanovastyles 15. New Order - Blue Monday 16. Liquid - Liquid is Liquid (remix) I'm very happy with the end result. It's a shame there's copyrighted tracks in there, because now I can't publish it on the web...

Work, indie or for a boss?

Last week I made a hard and important decision: I would start looking again for a regular employment.

Firefox 1.5 beta, but with all your favorite extensions

The Nightly Tester Tools extension for Mozilla Firefox simply rules! Thanks Dominik!

Where do you suggest I start?

How to start your own weblog. This is a short tutorial that lays out the steps that might be good when you want to start logging.

Firefox 1.5, the first beta

Well, I've upgraded recently to the first beta of Firefox' new version 1.5. So far, I seem to notice little difference (which is a good thing and a bad thing at the same time).

mod_rewrite saved my old RSS and Atom feeds

After moving to Textpattern, I had one tiny little problem: Everyone that subscribed to my RSS and Atom feeds wouldn't know about the change. Luckily, zeroK came to the rescue. He suggested to use mod_rewrite and even helped me compose the write mod_rewrite code for it: ??RewriteRule ^rss.xml$ /rss [R,L]?? ??RewriteRule ^atom.xml$ /atom [R,L]?? I tried accessing rss.xml and it indeed gave me my new RSS, so if all is well, all you old Left on the Web subscribers should now see this new post! Come by and see what I've done with the site.

Hey, what's this?

Left on the Web has changed software and layout. A small explanation.

Stress

I'm currently a bit stressed out. Trouble with a client while nearing the end of a project, no fun at all. I've had little time for fun. I've done some digging and I suspect this site will soon be "re-done". I have made the decision to move away from Pivot and towards Textpattern. Different reasons for that, with the main reason being a problem I recently had with Pivot where I for a minute was afraid I had lost all posts. It might just have been a glitch and was easily solved, but for now I'm moving this site away from Pivot. Downside is that I will have to write my own converter for the move, since there is no Pivot -> Textpattern converter available right now. But that's a nice little project to do once I've finished this damn project and hopefully solved the problems with the client.

Talk of the town

News is spreading fast on the Internet, especially with news like this. Vinton Cerf, who is widely creditted with inventing TCP/IP, the protocol used for the Internet, joins the ranks of Google. Google just became a whole lot mightier. I say: wow. WOW.

Mambo -> Joomla!

The old Mambo CMS has a new name. The developers of the old Mambo software had quit their work for Mambo after an argument over the Mambo Foundation that was started. Now, they have presented their new name: Joomla! I wonder where they got that name, it doesn't sound very intelligent. ;)

Crop of the Pops

Oh! Fun game! See how many album covers of your favorite band you can recognize:

Computers are gay?

Every once in a while, you find a picture on the Internet that is both hilarious, and at the same time quite shocking. This is one. [[popup:homocomputer.jpg :( thumbnail):Computers are gay?:1:center]] Even if a computer were a homo invention, what the hell is wrong with that?
