I was using client side scripting to interpret and sort my
livejournal and delicious entries together. Now I'm using
PHP and
XSLTs to process and sort my livejournal,
delicious, flickr, and librarything entries. See
my homepage for the finished result.
LibraryThing is pretty cool despite being pretty niche. Its like flickr but for books. I display a random sampling of the covers of books I have listed in
librarything on my page. I've also hooked the display of the covers of my book up to the corner image. Now when you hover over the cover of a book a bigger picture of its cover appears in the corner
of the webpage. Also, flickr entries in the main section how have the same on hover behavior.
This may not be the best use of my time, but its still fun.

Polytope Tetris. Constructive thoughts:
- One dimensional view. It should be easy to just hack up the two dimensional view.
- Cross sectional view. I want to have a view that displays cross sections of the game space taken across one dimension all in a row. It'd be nice if this cross sectional view could use any other
view to display each cross section, however I don't think the game's arch easily allows for that. Instead I may have to make it specific to the three dimensional view
Deconstructive thoughts:
- I went to the site the other day and saw that the project had an activity rating in the 90s. And this is while its still marked as Beta. I think I'm going to re-release the exact same bits
under a new name and move it out of Beta or Alpha. I'll call it Platinum Edition.
- There are a number of issues with this whole project. I'm trying to get my thoughts down here.

comic penny-arcade nintendo humor 2004 Apr 29, 7:39This was the first question I received and the only non programming related one. You have 10 very large jars of marbles and a digital scale which will accurately display the weight in grams of
whatever's placed on top. Some of the jars contain 1 gram marbles and some jars contain 1.1 gram marbles. Using the scale only once, that is you only get 1 measurement, how do you determine which
jars contain 1 gram marbles and which contain 1.1 gram marbles?
