Okay, okay. I was about to go to sleep and I see that I haven't posted anything since yesterday afternoon, so I feel compelled to churn up some nugget of insight right now, on command.
I really am going to sleep now though, so this is a quickie. The Blogger Purity Survey is moving along. I sent out the list of 500+ questions to eight fellow bloggers, and six have already gone through the list, rating each one on its merits for inclusion in the final survey. Now I'm feeding those numbers back into an excel spreadsheet, removing duplicates, fixing grammar, and sorting into 5 or so categories. The net result is that the BPS will go live for the masses within 7 days. The other big news is that Mac OS X 10.1 was finally released today (well, 'announced' today, (well, it was 'announced' back in July) for Saturday release) and I can't wait to get it on my powerbook. The big upside for me is that, after installing PHP and mySQL, I'll once again have a development machine without having to mess with stuff via FTP and SSH to Dreamhost when I want to tinker with code and databases. I lost that when I tore down Linux in favor (and I use the term lightly) of Win2K. And best of all, it'll be portable, so I can actually develop web apps on the train, instead of write untested code that I'll have to debug later. I'm also taking the train tomorrow, which means I'll be able to start catching up on the ever-growing scraps of blogthoughts that is threatening to burst my meager wallet. Okay, now to sleep. If you like it, please share it.
