Can we be like Google please and have a labs sub-domain…

That being said, got some nice stuff on. Flex 2 really does look as though it could be really good. Watch that space.

RIP John, you’re missed.

BBC Radio 1 has loads of stuff planned for tonight. Should be well worth a listen.

Just accidently found a really cool feature in Dreamweaver 8. If you select a block of code and hit “CTRL + T” you can type in a CF tag and surround the selected block of code, ideal for cfoutput, cfquery & cfif to name a few, ooo, and cftry.

Very handy. I think, and from the last version I didn’t think I’d say it, but, I actually like DW8. The code editor works, it doesn’t crash, it doesn’t randomly delete code, code collapse is back (ohh the Studio 4.5 memories) and the “CTRL + T” functionality. Very cool. Nice job MM.

I’ve had a bit of a play with Flex 1.5 and it’s nice, very nice but I don’t see how it’s going to go mainstream with the ridiculous cost! It’s going to be hard for any organisation to justify the cost.

Hopefully now Zorn is coming along and now that MM are part of the Eclipse foundation they’ll bring costs down. Only thing on the side you have to wonder about is with a big organisation like MM joining Eclipse will that influence it to much, who knows, time will tell. We’ve the ‘Macrodobe’ thing to actually happen yet which seems to have gone quiet. Guess these things take time though.

Whether this is true or not true (as the Whitehouse is trying to claim, naturally), you have to wonder about him, I mean more than before!

Looks quite interesting. Can’t think of a use for it right now but it’ll come to me.

Collaborative writing software online with Writeboard. Write, share, revise, compare.

I use TorrentFlux on one of my linux servers to consume torrents, recently after upgrading to MySQL noticed a bug, turns out it was unrelated to the the upgrade but in fact a bug in the .torrent file in question.

If you get:

“Got bad file info – path disallowed for security reasons”

there is a problem inside the torrent file, probably files starting with a . , fine on linux but not on windoze.

The solution is to go and edit on of the files. Go into your BitTornado directory, usually: /usr/local/TF_BitTornado/BitTornado/BT1/btformats.py

Change line 7 from:
reg = compile(r’^[^/\.~][^/\]*$’)

To:
reg = compile(r’^[^/\.~][^/\]*$|^$’)
