In an attempt to keep closer, tighter (better, stronger, faster) control over my content, I’m sure you have already noticed a few changes to the sites. Particularly the lack of comments. The lack of comments will continue here, here and here until I decide otherwise.
That doesn’t mean you can’t criticize my work or provide feedback. On any of the items I post you are more than welcome to scrape, grab, hotlink or download any of it and post it to your site. Or link back to my stuff. Or, and this is new, friend me up at Facebook.
I have setup a new FriendFeed account and have linked up only the sites that don’t have comments (including the tumblr). I have also activated the FriendFeed app on Facebook so everything I post will go right into my news feed.
I think for now this is a pretty good solution. Of course, if you would like to add your 2-bits, go right ahead.
UPDATE: If you are a facebook user, you can login using the button on the right to post a comment as well.
You might remember my Facebook Connect how-to that I posted back in January. I got a request about how to modify the widget in the shape of a comment, but I deleted by mistake. I did reply via email and thought I would add it here for wiki purposes.
From Archchef at casualgaminformer.com comes this question.
Is there a way to disable the “Last visitors” section in the widget? I don’t exactly want nor need it but can’t find any way of killing the darn thing
This one is very easy. To remove the part of the widget you don’t want to see, open fbconnect_widget.php and scroll down to line 31, or there about. There are 2 lines below that, remove them, save and upload. You should be good to go. If you want the code, leave a comment below and I’ll hook you up.
I know the plugin still isn’t 100% here. I hope to have that fixed before I go to Vegas this coming weekend.
In case you missed it on Facebook, my tumblr or my YouTube channel, here is teh lad smokin’ in the 100m breast stroke at his first swim meet.

Found out today, that time is only 15 seconds off of what the guys are on the Varsity squad are swimming. Not bad for a kid who has only seen about 2 weeks of pool time!
And, make it worthwhile. Click the HD button. Exactly why I bought the Canon HF100 right there friends.
I’ve got more than a few things to get done today. I spent the better part of the week sitting on my hands for the most part and getting nothing done except for a few lackluster workouts.
Well, maybe that is not entirely correct. I did get a few things done this week.
- Got another website customer, and another possible is in the works.
- Created a new business card. Printing them next week.
- Upgraded the iMac to 4GB of RAM. All I can say is holy crap!
- Sent my resume out 5 times
- Gave serious thought towards getting serious about starting my own company
- Napped
- Made another video to test iMovie ‘09. More on this later.
- Made an episode of THCS. I need to order a new mixer bad.
- Spent more time that I care to admit on Facebook
I can tell you about this site, which is cool. It’s a site for an old time Hot Rod guy (like, one of the pioneers of the whole thing) with cool photos and some history. He recently passed away and his family wants to be able to post old articles and photos and all that. Perfect job for Wordpress. I’ll let you know when it’s done so you can check it out.
I also have changes coming to this site. I put together some really cool stuff when I was ‘at the job’ and one of them was the coda slider. I’m going to try to incorporate into this site for latest posts, portfolio snippets, video and a contact form on the home page. Watch for that.
Go watch the video. It’s funny. I might post it here, but I forgot to not cuss, so maybe not.
A quick personal wiki/how-to entry on getting the Facebook connect plugin working with a custom Wordpress theme.
I spent a good part of the day setting up the Facebook Connect plugin over at Motoringfile. I also set it up here, but haven’t spent nearly as long tweaking it. That means it’s personal wiki time! Weeeeeee (Read on…)
