Working Out Problems With Comments ...

Just wanted to let folks know that we're still working out some weirdness with comments in our drupal implementation. In particular, some comments are not showing up for a week or more.

(in case you're wondering, it's not a moderation problem - we have it turned off!)

Anyone who's had experience with sorting out those sorts of problems on drupal blogs .... well, help is always welcome.

In the meantime, please keep posting those comments and we'll get it sorted out as soon as possible.

Thanks!

How the “Mad Kitty” Came To Be …

Having a bit of "down time" with fam and friends has been great ... hope yours has been at least as good.

Seems like about a zillion years since I was buying student tickets for games at Mizzou (the University of Missouri), but like many folks I've continued to follow their teams over the years. Really only problem in that ... for most of the past 30 years they've been pretty bad, well actually that would be understating things ... a lot!

But all that's changing now, and for the first time in my lifetime I got to see Mizzou play a football game in January. With polite apologies to any of you Arkansas fans out there, today's 35-7 win over Arkansas was awesome.

I mention all of this to give you a bit of background on the rest of this post.

Off-topic - iPhones, WM6 and the Net

I saw a little note yesterday and found it rather curious - despite having some nearly infitisimal percentage of mobile devices, 0.09% of all web pages viewed in November were viewed on iPhones.iphone vs htc.jpg

By way of contrast, all Windows Mobile devices added together account for only 0.06% of web page views in November. Palm OS accounts for about 0.02%. In fact, the iPhone passes those two combined.

Off-topic - Time Machine is … Nice

About a year ago my personal workflow was based upon a desktop at the office, another (more or less identical) desktop at home, and a laptop for all other cases. While that worked pretty good, I just wondered if maybe I could make my world a bit simpler. My road schedule has picked up quite a bit as Appistry has gained customers and overall market traction (a very good thing!), but that was turning the process of keeping three separate machines current more trouble than it was worth.

So I chucked all three (with various flavors of xp), and picked up a single macbook pro (15", merom generation). So how do things look a year later?
