Seems I’ve got the code in various places, but the database was wiped before I started backing up my MySQL db’s. D’oh.

Now I’m stuck with reverse engineering a database from the code, and we know there’ll always be something I’ve interpereted wrong, and something won’t ever work the same :(

Interestingly though I found out that I can do SVN and trac from my Dreamhost account, and I do most coding stuff on MAMP locally anyway (it’s easier than scp’ing files over…)

On to funsies now, philage sent me a heap of demotivation posters …

which I quickly forwarded on to Benn. We all know why.

Going to Melbourne next week, could be interesting.. Maybe not. PJ and Lucy have already put in orders for Krispy Kreme … haha.

Oh and I’m also playing with making WordPress plugins now.. I made a simple one that uses twitter‘s API to pull my tweets down, and I’m playing with WP2.5.. The new interface is so pretty!

Since I’m now on reimage (reinstall) 4 of the virtual PC I decided to start on a cruiser and see if that helps improve my chain of thought…

Finally given up on Mandriva (Benni will be going “oh thank god” about now), but it was nice.. and easy. Ubuntu is different, but I’m confident! haha

Decided to play with some virtual machines, which is really cool. I now have a “spare” machine set up for MySQL, and a dev server as well. There’s just so much different stuff that you can actually do. It would be interesting if work took up something similar; although I could see work’s clients chewing resources more rapidly than my small projects!

Anyway, just wanted to share my nerdy news with something ;)
