A few quick things, if only to remind myself to remember to think about them:\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nInspired by a suggestion from Eric Scheid to move from my server-included blocks to client-included blocks via ?JavaScript, I did a little exploration into the idea and whipped up a quick, generalized script to mangle the contents of any given URL into a document.writeln(). Not sure how robust this thing is.\n\n\n\n\n\nAlso, not sure how widely supported the JS-include hack is. On the other hand, Stephen Downes had made a good point in my blogchat the other day concerning JS-based hacks: my visitors can turn them off by disabling Javascript. Having been employed in the field of internet promotions these past 6 years, this seems like a nightmare. But, having been reading the Cluetrain Manifesto and following smart blogs, I start to think this is a Good Thing.\n\n\n\n\nI see that JanneJalkanen and crew are musing out an update to the XML-RPC wiki interface. Having worked on my own implementations of this interface, I need to keep an eye on this, even if I can't quite be as active as I like.\n\n\n\n\nHTTP Extensions for a Content-Addressable Web seems hot as hell, especially for the future decentrallized publishing world I'm dreaming of.\n\n\n\n\n\nI'm updating my home linux box, Memoria, with Debian, defecting from Mandrake Linux. Wish me luck. Oh, and the HD in the machine has a few cranky parts from having been dropped. Wish it luck.\n\n\n\n\n\nRunning a telnet BBS at telnet://deus-x.dyndns.org:2323. The domain may change to bbs.decafbad.com soon. I miss the BBS days. I may bemoan the loss of local community gateways onto the 'net someday soon. I'm using Synchronet on a poor overworked Pentium 70Mhz PC running Win98, on which I also inflicted Radio UserLand for the time being. No one really calls on my BBS. I've been thinking of hosting the UNIX version on Memoria.\n\n\n\n\n\nThinking of trying out Radio UserLand on Memoria under Wine. I've seen mutterings which claim that this is possible. Anyone?\n\n\n\n\n\nI want to wax pretentious with a few musings on the Singularity, birth control, anti-biotics, glasses, and self-modifying code. I might not get around to it, though.\n\n\n\n\n\nWasabi-coated peas are at once wonderful and terrifying.", "needsBuild": true, "prevPostPath": "2002/05/10/oooadh", "prevPostTitle": "Onto the next day job subversion: K-Logging", "nextPostPath": "2002/05/13/oooaeo", "nextPostTitle": "Mr. Downes' Javascript-based referrers" }
