@unitedbreaks is jammin today
"In a time before caffeine (morning), two rivals enter the arena - only one leaves." Apparently coffee kicks Dr. Pepper's ass every time.

I ported @t's new base 60 code (from cassis) to perl: http://github.com/sivy/NewBase60 #diso #perl
@dotBen I hadn't - thanks. It's true that there is a starving artist vibe to the indie-advocate gig. What to do about that #open #advocacy

TinWhistle (was NewBase60)
Apropos of my recent interview with Tantek Çelik about URL shorteners, I've ported his NewBase60 code (part of his CASSIS project) to perl. It's now found on github at
. This code converts numbers (in this case, dates expressed as days-since-the-epoch) into a base60 (sexagesimal) representation that's really short. For example, '1971-06-29' becomes '94', and '2010-05-26' becomes '45v'.
