Twittering Tunes on the Twitosphere!

Ahh Twitter! To be honest I still don’t fully get the fascination everyone has with twitter. But I’m obviously wrong here, otherwise it wouldn’t be the big deal it is today.

I suppose if I lived in a larger city, had more friends and maybe a more active social life; I might have more use for it. Although having a blog might change that. :) Maybe I’m just a little antisocial or something.

BTW I currently do not have a twitter account for this blog, but I will soon and when I do I will make the annoucement, I hope I’m worth following. It could be quite the ego shattering experience.

So why are you posting about it? Well, they sure do have a nice development platform. And I just had to check it out!

Facebook Development – getting started

While I’m learning silverlight behind the screen, I thought I’d put a little article together about setting up your development environment for the Facebook Development platform. This little example is for use with a PHP setup. Its really pretty easy and quick to get everything up and running. Just read the article and if you feel the need leave me some comment love.

Wow that was fast!

This blog has been here since 2006, albeit inactive the majority of that time, I think I’ve only ever deleted 1 spam message in all that time. But of course now, after an update and a few new posts and Wham-o! Spam-o! Go figure. How obnoxious is that? Have a blog up for a couple of days and here they come, posting comments about gibberish, male enhancing products and all that other fun stuff. Just beautiful. 

Updates and Changes

Well hidy ho! I finally revamped the blog and upgraded to the latest version of Wordpress. Those you were here before might notice that the entire format, purpose etc of the blog has changed, and with good reason. Unfortunately having a blog dedicated to a single topical area just doesn’t cut it for someone like myself. As such attempting to keep a blog associated with a single area leads to few or no posts ever. With this new much broader purpose I hope to be able to post updates much more frequently.

Check out the About page to see info on what I am hoping to accomplish with this new blog. Post soon!
