Calling MyChores fans!
I have added MyChores to sphred.com - a site for promoting other websites especially new ones. I know MyChores is not that new anymore, but it is still relatively unknown so i think this is a good idea.
Here's the link - please go vote!
You will need to sign in or sign up - which is [...]

On Twitter, and patience.
Somebody has written a post complaining about the performance of Twitter, and i have to say, i am upset at both the post and the comments in response.
I'm thinking if we get enough inspired commentary we might actually get some answers out of Twitter about why they have such a hard time just keeping the [...]

MyChores
I have been working really hard on MyChores today. Ported it across to the new server, fixed a bunch of code issues ready for Rails 2.0 and tweaked the session storage method. The last of the DNS servers seem to be picking up the new location now; it seems to be going to the right [...]

An experiment

Caught out!
In an email i just read from Cheryl:

I feel like somebody just caught me doing something shameful! I always like to deny that there can be any possible truth to astrology - it just [...]

VMware Server
I am totally thrilled - i have managed to install VMware Server and got Windows 98 running as a virtual machine! I connected up the network so that i can see MyChores running on the host machine, therefore enabling me to test on IE without having to borrow my partner's computer all the time.
That is [...]

I did it!
I migrated the MyChores journal across to WordPress! I found some excellent scripts to perform the migration (not everything worked since the Typo journal was horribly out of date!) so i have all the posts and categories as before, plus there was some dark magic involved to keep the old permalink format and redirect the [...]
