Quick post, since I haven’t done this in forever (really need to post on http://mini.budy.org more than here).
Google Chrome is awesome, it has it’s moments of frustration, but honestly what browser doesn’t. It’s so simple, and the Omni bar is so awesome (I often forget how awesome it is until I’m forced to use another [...]
I haven’t created a fun little project lately, but I have still been playing.
Lately I’ve been into messing around in Drupal and seeing how quickly I can bring an idea to life.
A week or two ago, I sat down for an evening and cobbled together a tool to replace a real life tool I used. [...]
Was looking into this the other day with Ian, only to find that there is no native support within Flash for alternate input devices beyond the mouse and keyboard. That really is silly. At this point, with as sophisticated as Flash has become (it can use your dang GPU for hardware rendering!), it certainly seems [...]
Well I’m a little behind on my resolution, but not too far yet. So without further adieu, here’s my latest mini-fun Flash project:
This movie requires Flash Player 9
swfobject.embedSWF(”http://chris.budy.org/playground/tinydrops/tiny-drops.swf”, “swfd7d11″, “400″, “300″, “9.0.0″, “”, {}, {wmode: “window”, menu: “false”, quality: “high”, bgcolor: “#FFFFFF”}, {});
I was browsing Gizmodo today and came across this post:

Which showed me this image:
Which inspired me to play around in Flash, and make this:
This movie requires Flash Player 9

I hope to play around a lot more this year. I guess [...]
A nice walkthrough of how to get RoR all installed on Ubuntu:

Just sitting around tonight. Had some very long nights trying to wrap up some client work for a deadline that was today. Made it though, so all’s well. But my brain is sleepy.
I finished the external parts of the greenhouse today with Akiko. We made a door and added it to the structure. Has a [...]
My blog started as a place for me to rant into the ether my gripes with a company, and it seems I have no shortage of gripes lately. I’ve always hated iTunes, I held off for quite some time in using it. I preferred Microsofts Media Player to iTunes as a lesser of two evils. [...]
It’s been a while since I posted last. Try (again) to get this going. I have been more or less pleasantly busy over the past couple months in both my professional and personal lives. Professionally we’ve had plenty of work to keep us busy and personally my wife and I have been trying to eek [...]
My sister has a couple photos of the two of us floating around her house on display and I wanted to reciprocate the favor. I came across some photos at my house today and got a good one showing off my sister and myself with our mad youthful stylee…
I must admit, my sister was way [...]
