Using Script tags in WordPress is a pain in the ass. They have a visual tab and a code tab, but the code tab does some strange parsing. I want a REALLY code tab where I can type it in exactly as a want it. I now have to look around for different WYSIWYG Editors…
I have lots of experiments for jQuery that I made years ago. I wonder if they are helpful to anyone. Feel free to use: http://www.commadot.com/jquery/

Ok, I FINALLY upgraded my WordPress 2.0.2 to 2.1. I was so scared of messing it up, but apparently it worked fine. I just followed the instructions. It’s got lots of improvements. I am pleased that it was so painless. The UI for the 2.1 release is pretty much the same. I hate waiting to…
http://www.getfirebug.com/ This plugin is just awesome for Firefox. It does everything I want to help figure out how a page is put together. I suggest it for every developer out there. Other software stuff: Adobe Photoshop CS3 looks cool. I was playing around with it at Penny’s house. She is using it for creating patterns…
Ok, so I redirected http://pictures.kokopop.com to go to the new place. I like it, but I still have some reservations. Plus we need to tag and upload about 6 gigs of photos. Ugh! Additionally, I am getting a little annoyed with PowWeb. The speed seems to be getting slower and slower. Plus they still haven't…
Microsoft, I believe, has made a mistake. The new version of Exchange 2007 ONLY runs on 64-bit operating systems. As someone who has installed Windows 64-bit edition, I can say, "It sucks." Nothing works right. Drivers are jacked. Programs don't work. Microsoft expects everyone who runs Exchange to do so on a brand new machine…
The Jets lost, but they had a great season. Very young team. I am anticipating a good draft and a strong season next year. I am very happy with their performance. I am happy to make the prediction now. Next year, the Jets will win the Superbowl. I have been stressing out over Microsoft lately. …
I got little sleep last night. Right before going to sleep, Katie said, "I think http://pictures.kokopop.com has a bad user experience." I tried to go to sleep, but couldn't. She was correct. It was limited. And making the albums was a pain in the ass. Plus their were features I wanted, but couldn't have. So…
I have never used Microsoft PowerPoint 2007 for UX design before. It's actually quite an improvement over the 2003 version. The ability to manage styles so easily really has made using it a pleasure for my task, which is UX Design. I have literally designed a major portion of the Marketo app in record time using…
First, I turned off the "must be logged in to write comments" option. Danny had complained. Wuss. So to avoid spam, I tried to turn on Akismet. I have no idea if this is going to work. I shall see. Then I wanted a WYSIWYG editor for writing posts and I saw this one called…
Thanks to Rachael Luxemburg for sending me this great article about what I go through. All of the creative community I work with thought it was right on the mark. I am still in love with jQuery by the way. It is much easier to deal with than the Jets. I wanted to make a…
Getting a little comfortable with WordPress now. The way plugins work is actually pretty easy. I tried out a whole bunch of standard editor plugins. The reason for this is that the out-of-the-box WordPress does not include spell checking. I tried 5 different ones. Ajax Spell Checker EditorMonkey Visual.SpellCheck WYSI-Wordpress Xinha4WP combined with Text Control…
DirecTV sent me a letter. It looks like they finally figured out the legal issues and now can broadcast local channels in HD. This has been a big competitive pitch by the cable companies. So the letter said, 'Call us and we will hook you up with a new satellite and a new receiver'. This…
