Oh, yeah! Sept 4, Dodge Theater, Phoenix...

Jim points out that we're back on the air. Yay!

If you're working on making a site accessible, and need to know what it means to satisfy level 1, 2, or 3 of conformance to the Web Accessibility guidelines, here's the checklist.

I'm reading Mark Pilgrim's Dive Into Accessibility site, and also Joe Clark's Building Accessible Websites. Both are invaluable websites.

Man, oh man. So I got my PC today, a hand-me-down from my dad. I needed something to test out the sites I've been developing on, and I'm sad to say I've looked them over.

I'm about to start a site for an organization that works with the visually impaired, so I thought I'd dig up Mark Pilgrim's excellent resource, Dive Into Accessibility.

In about an hour I'm going to my first face-to-face job interview in 14 months. I'm nervous.

Whew. Well, my interview skills are rusty. Thanks for all the well-wishes from friends and family.

Apple is finally shipping the new (drool, drool) G5s. Oooooh, baby!

Nate is building a robot out of LEGO and custom-built electronics, and it is amazing. It's radio controlled right now and has a radio transmitting video camera. Check out this video of it in action (12.8 mb Quicktime). Go LEGOMAN!

Sometimes we need to grant admin permissions for a subsite to a group or member. Right now the groups admin pages are horked, and you have to do it via psql.

Since this will be gone soon I'm sure.

Good info on how to be a math/systems geek (read Programmer) and not drive your management ballistic and yourself out of a job.

This is the place to buy your cat5e ethernet cable. I just bought 75' of cable, two wall plates, and two wall jacks for just over $16. 50' of cat5 at Fry's was $29.99. D'oh!

Jodi and I had dinner last night with Bill and Sandi. Bill surprised me with a late birthday present, the Coolest Mug Ever!

Life can be so unfair.

A while back I wrote an Applescript that would render an outline from OmniOutliner into html based on user-defined templates.
