    Well I’m slowly making progress on this site. Last weekend (I’m just getting some time to post this now…) I created a way to add albums to my site. This has given me the advantage of being able to have more pictures divided into their perspective albums. This isn’t a difficult concept, but if you…

    So yesterday at work, Will introduced me to a new Firefox add-on. Its called FireFTP. I’m quite impressed with it, and here are a few reasons why: 1) Speed – It loaded the ftp sites pretty darn fast. I was impressed because I know its faster than what I use to use. 2) Run inside…

    So I recently watched Robots and I really enjoyed it. It is a funny movie that has a great plot, and some great character development. I have seen it before, but it is so engrossing that although I had seen it before, three days after my sister-in-law started watching it and I saw the first…

    Yesterday and today I noticed a problem with my feed creators. It seemed I was getting multiple feeds for each day. I knew partially why this was happening, and that is because my feeds are created by a php page so I created a script that would hit the web page and cause it to…

    When I first started my new job, my boss was telling one of the other guys about a program called “SpaceMonger”. It sounded pretty neat, so I thought I would look into it. I figure this is a good place for me to express how absolutely pleased I am with this program. What SpaceMonger does…

    Last night I completed the creation of the RSS feeds for the Book of Mormon – A chapter a day. There are now two feeds. One is the RSS feed described in the previous post, and the other is a podcast. The podcast links to lds.org giving both a link for the text, and the…

    So for the last couple of days I spent hours trying to figure out what was wrong with the podcast I had created and why it wouldn’t display correctly in Mozilla Thunderbird. I had 3 other podcasts that were showing up great, and this one didn’t. It turned out in the end that the podcast…
