<p>A responsive look for notes from /dev/null.</p>

<p>Since migrating to <a href="http://blog.getpelican.com">Pelican</a> from Posterous, I've been wanting to take a stab at changing the theme so that the layout is responsive. Here's a first pass at it and so far I'm liking how relatively straightforward Pelican is to customize.</p> <p>So far the systems I've tested this layout on are:</p> <ul> <li>Safari 6.0.3 (OS X)</li> <li>IE 10</li> <li>iPad/iPhone Mobile Safari iOS 6.1.3</li> <li>Chrome (Ubuntu, Linux, Windows 8) </li> <li>Mobile Firefox (Android 2.2)</li> <li>Android 2.2 Browser</li> <li>Firefox 19.0.2 (OS X, Ubuntu)</li> </ul>2013-03-20T10:48:00-07:002013-03-20T10:48:00-07:00Charles Choitag:yummymelon.com,2013-03-20:/devnull/browseaudit.html

<p>A Python script to read your OS X Safari history file and privately list your most frequently visited website domains. Output includes HTML, CSV, and listing to stdout.</p>

That said, it has the purpose of showing you where you're spending too much time with when you're on the web. </p> <p>Surprise yourself today.</p>2009-04-17T14:04:00-07:002009-04-17T14:04:00-07:00Charles Choitag:yummymelon.com,2009-04-17:/devnull/really-cool-application-building-blocks-to-pl.html

<p>There's been a spate of really cool and interesting development tools to build web applications that have popped up over the past two years.</p> <p>Things that I've been playing with, in no particular order:</p> <p></p> <ul><li>Google App Engine (GAE)</li><li>Google Web Toolkit (GWT)</li><li>Android SDK</li><li>iPhone SDK</li><li>Air/Flex3</li><li>Amazon S3/EC2</li></ul> <div>Grokking all of this into a coherent whole is part of the fun.  As a quick and dirty exercise, I wrote a GWT QuickTime component and marveled at how much it worked cross-browser. Here's a <a href="http://caachi.dyndns.org/~cchoi/CiGwtTestbench/CiGwtTestbench.html">link to it</a> (warning this link is fragile since it's a prototype) with some additional components added to it.</div> <p /><div>When I get more up to speed with GWT conventions I'm thinking of open sourcing the GWT QuickTime component. </div>
