I can’t believe that I haven’t been updating this site being that one of my pet peeves is a lack of updates.

I have been continuing to work on porting our sites at work over to the new server. Been rewriting a lot of PERL scripts in both Javascript and PERL for NT. NT may be cheaper up front, but you give up some things that I have taken for granted serving the sites with UNIX. (mailto)

I’ve also been sick this week for three days. Old sinuses acting up again. Feeling a little better now. I really have to do some updating this weekend.

Work Ethic and MYTH: THE FALLEN LORDS

December 10, 1997 By Robert Occhialini

Okay, so five days have gone by and no content changes. This has happened for two very distinct reasons.

  1. I have started playing multiplayer Myth: The Fallen Lords over at bungie.net
    I am addicted. I want to be in the top hundred this week.
  2. I have decided that I will not add more content to the induvidual sections until I have implemented Frontier 5
    Version a22 for the Macintosh was released this morning.

There is a lot of talk about XML going on. I expect that I will be making the rounds tonight and posting what I find.

Case Studies in Tuxedos

December 6, 1997 By Robert Occhialini

You can expect some serious content revisions here over the next two days. I plan on moving all of the QuickTime 3.0 information over to a new page, adding reviews to all of the induvidual sections, and archiving the November journal entries. Seems that there are a few of you reading this page daily now. I will spend this morning picking up a tuxedo for a Christmas party tonight. After that, you can expect the code to fly.

MacAddict has a pretty solid article on Goodies for nothing!

In the Valley of Caffeine

December 5, 1997 By Robert Occhialini

After burning the midnight oil arguing interface philosophy with my cat, I am on the coffee horse and typing like a crazed fanatic.

QuickTime 3.0 beta(This link is to Apple’s Preview Page) is pretty interesting. For a long time I’ve felt that the best minds at Apple were on QuickTime development, and they continue to prove me correct. I will definitely be doing my first software review for this site on it, so check back.

Some other QuickTime 3.0 resources:

Get QuickTime 3.0 Preview Software
  • QuickTime 3 looking good
    A good review by MacWEEK, maybe I don’t need to review it.
  • Developers eager to tap power of QuickTime 3.0
    Pretty much a response piece…I would pass on this if you are pressed for time.
  • Featured as a Cool Tool of the Day
  • Download it from here

I also meant to mention GUI Junky, an interface hacking site that looks like it might pick up where MacOver faded…

I will begin porting all of my pages at work over to a new server this weekend. If anyone has any suggestions on moving from UNIX to Windows NT(Netscape Enterprise 3) feel free to drop me a line. I will post any experiences I have to share.

I’m pretty sure that this page represents the look and feel I will be using. Still a lot of loose ends that need to be taken care of. If you actually see this page and have an opinion, please let me know.

I expect that I will have at least half of the new content up by the end of the weekend. I have just finished building and uploading the basic site structure.

Salon Magazine has a great article on Johnny Cash.

I also want to plug the best tool for building web pages. Everyone give it up for BBEdit.
