Second polish cut, getting a little smoother. Consolidated all my backups, liking Time Machine.

Made the first polish cut on Sunday, got the Flash code live. Played around with ZFS, crashed my computer a number of times.

A new year, decided to redo the main site. Unified my CSS. Cleaned up all my old php scripts, making them database-agnostic. This allowed me to dump five or so year’s worth of detritus from my SQL tables, so now they’re all shiny again.

Switched all the Sorenson 3 stuff over to H.264. I kinda liked Sorenson, it was compatible back to 2001: forever in computer terms. But it’s an evolutionary dead end, H.264 and its variants are the future. Now the main page works with an iPhone as well as the iPod Touch.

In theory, the latest flash betas will play 264 if it’s piped in correctly, which means that Linux and Windows boxes without Quicktime will be able to watch things. But getting that working is a project for another day.

There was another one a few days ago, but it was too tall to be useable. 500GB in a laptop is pretty impressive, though.

A nice new year’s present, ZFS read/write binaries for Leopard.
