site design
I’m playing around with a new site design. Mostly black & white, with simple graphics using the “Poor Richard” font. It still needs some work. I definitely need to work on the way this text looks, for instance. And, oh yeah, I need to find a better HTML editor than HomeSite 2, which has gotta be about 10 years old now. Maybe TopStyle?
A Stroke of Genie-us
Okay, I have to admit I’m stuck on “A Stroke of Genie-us” by The Freelance Hellraiser. Christina Aguilera meets the Strokes. Okay, if I was really hip, I would have known about this a year ago.
crabwalk
I’ve been checking Josh Benton’s blog on crabwalk.com a lot lately. Follow some of his links, and waste some time. Good stuff.
learning C#
I think I’ve finally finished converting my little calculator program from C++ to C#. The last stumbling block was figuring out how to substitute standard input with the contents of a string that had been passed on the command-line. The answer was to declare a TextReader object, then assign it to Console.In when I wanted to read from the console, or a StringReader object when I wanted to read from a string. Easy! (Once you’ve figured out that there’s such a thing as a StringReader object, and that it’s interchangeable with Console.In.)

Excellent Sinfest today.

Canon LiDE 30
Picked up a new scanner today — a Canon LiDE 30. Had a heck of a time figuring out how to clear up enough desk space for it. I had to turn my mouse pad sideways so it would fit, but I still seem to have enough room to use the mouse comfortably.
