I don&#8217;t normally post my nerdy tid-bits here, but we did something totally cool today.<br />
We built a pseudo-purchasing system (ie shopping / &#8220;add to cart&#8221;) <strong>revolving entirely around functionality in an ORM and PHP&#8217;s built in session handling</strong>.</p>
<p>The beauty of it all, is that once our logic validates the cart is ready and all processing is done, all that is required is calling <code>$object->save();</code>, and the ORM takes care of persisting it all.</p>
<p>I&#8217;m a little inspired with how easy this was, and how well it really worked (it seriously was awesome).. I&#8217;m going to put some thought into other ways that code libraries that I already use can be put to use with their &#8220;<em>in the box</em>&#8221; features, but in an &#8220;<em>outside the box</em>&#8221; kind of way.</p>

<p>It&#8217;s a pity that this wasn&#8217;t fully done. It would have ended pretty well.</p>
<p>Anyway, got this from a site I closely follow for all my <a href="http://xenutv.wordpress.com/2008/08/11/xenu-for-president-2008/">scientology info</a> (PS if you&#8217;re seeing this, hi Mark!) and thought that it was funny.</p>
<p>Better than the barackroll is for certain the <a href="http://www.xenu08.info/">Xenu08</a> site. I know if I were American that he would be my preferred candidate. Well.. I was initially barracking (pun) for <em>Hildog</em>, <strong>obviously</strong> since she&#8217;s more alien, <strong>but</strong> with her out of the contest, definitely xenu.</p>
<p>Hrm, anyhow, it&#8217;s late (12.45) and I have work tomorrow. So that is all for now. Keep searching the skiis&#8230;er, skies.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Seems when work did a batch of recent DNS updates, they put my site on the wrong IP addresses, and subsequently it was redirect looping. Uh-oh.</p>
<p>Fixed it for now, although I need to remember to fix it for good tomorrow (few more settings).</p>
<p>In other news, WordPress 2.6 is out and I need to update. I updated my test site I have stored locally and everything seems to have run normally. I&#8217;m loving the wiki-like revisions features, very very nice. I&#8217;m going to try updating tomorrow morning <img src='http://chasmofsarr.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_biggrin.gif' alt=':D' class='wp-smiley' /> </p>
