I’m looking through a list of small (read: FAST) Linux distributions to put a small webserver like AppWeb on. Here in the Loch Raven tech room, I’m basically sitting on a pool of older hardware. These can be turned into some decent webserver boxes with PHP on them. I could run a separate MySQL server if [...]
So lately for me it’s been either go somewhere to jack an internet connection or sleep. That’s all I do anymore. I need some merferkin’ BIDNESS. Because that means money. And that means I don’t sleep all the time. Well it COULD mean that I sleep all the time, I just need money so I [...]
Did I mention that last year, I built a mobile webserver cluster on a cart? I want to do something like that again. If you know of anyone that has about 9 identical computers (ideally being released from inventory from some corporate entity) and a good 12-port switch, let me know.
Since I’ve all but taken Nedrub.com offline, here are the new addresses for MySpaceDP and XMLTopFriends. MySpaceDP 5.1 can be found at http://www.drewburden.com/projects/myspacedp/ XMLTopFriends is at http://www.drewburden.com/projects/xmltopfriends/ MySpaceDP is a tool that allows you to insert an image tag in a Web page or profile and it will always match that person’s default picture on [...]
All my apps on drewburden.com were down for about a day, due to a DNS issue. I think I have that straightened out, all the stuff like MySpaceDP and XMLTopFriends should work now. I finally have DrewBurden.com moved to another server, and all of my sites except the PodMedia sites are off the Common Tech [...]
I’m still in the process of getting all my web sites off the Common Tech server. Here’s what I got so far: geekchat.us: Moved to WordPress.com. You’re reading it, duhhh. fragforjes.us: Moved. Now it’s on a dinky little server on a cable internet connection in a closet in the office building I work in. This [...]
I’m no longer hosting my own blog, but this may be just temporary. I like the fact I don’t have to keep WordPress updated now… DrewBurden.com may go offline for a few days soon. That means my apps won’t work, but you’ll survive. I’m also going to Louisville today. I get to take my new [...]
Use Pidgin (or Gaim)? Use MySpaceIM? Wanna get rid of MySpaceIM? I’ve compiled an unofficial build of Pidgin 2.0.0 with MySpaceIM support. Just add an account with the MySpaceIM protocol and set your user name as your MySpace email address. While it has the plugin, I can’t guarantee it will work. If it doesn’t, just [...]
What if I told you… I was sick of the fact MySpace didn’t have any interfaces so you could syndicate data elsewhere? I took matters into my own hands… again? First I whipped up MySpaceDP, a tool to always return a user’s default picture, which has steadily evolved into the monster hit it is today, [...]
I’m in the process of consolidating all my stuff on the web to DrewBurden.com. I’ll start using that as my primary web contact point, and I’ll renew geekchat.us and nedrub.com for one additional year to allow everyone to adjust the email change. After that, I’m dropping the domains. I like the design I’ve put together [...]
