So, we finally have the mac mini and the laptop both up and running through the linksys router connected to what I can only describe as a “neighborhood LAN.” We were coming home last night and there were 2 or 3 dudes on the rooftop across from us throwing bundles of cable to 2 or 3 dudes on the rooftop across the street. Guess someone’s getting the world wide web.
Next on my list (after somehow juicing up our heart-breakingly slow internet connection) is to move all the plutino.net into CVS. Now that there’s actually stuff here and we’re bouncing back and forth between computers, I’m worried about losing some of these digital gems. I’m also working on a new engine for our “blogs.” I regret to say that I’ve totally gotten over my old php/mysql engine and while waiting for inspiration on a new one, I’m hand-coding these. The new one is going to be php/xml/xslt and I hope that I can just use the php XML DOM features right out of the gate. We’ll see. If anybody has any ideas on this front, please email me at iamabignerd AT plutino DOT net.
