If everything goes well, distracted enthusiasm will become a fantastic platform to release some software I'm looking forward to sharing. But first there's a number of things I need to get happening.
- Migrate DE Code base to Subversion
- Finish of JCMS bits and pieces (my php content management framework based on ruby on rails)
- Fix 'perma links' on DE, making them nice and dynamic again
- Create the ability to link to images, upload images or just use Flickr better
- Finish off my del.icio.us Rails plugin
- Draw up plans for my Cocoa Tape measure program (link pending)
- It would be nice to get some wooshka graphics up on this site too.
So lets get moving!

San Francisco here I come! fingers crossed. I've submitted almost all of my application to the AUC and Apple (final one due Thursday), so the wait is on to see if I'll be heading to WWDC this year.
Weekend Ride
In the mean time, there's another bike ride to be done!
160km there and back Melbourne to Bendigo over next weekend. Yeehaw!

Mootools is definatly the weapon of choice for me this week as I create my PHP JCMS framework, but mootools is a friend on any project. I'm sure someone has come up with ruby wrappers for some of it's javascript.
But, what I'm here to post is this link for inplace editing. Inplace editing from the mootools forum

Yesterday I took delivery of a brand new ipod Touch that we purchased at work for mobile device development. I have to say it's a beautiful thing, and it makes me envy those people with iPones at the moment. The idea of downloading podcasts and viewing the while in transit, +music + photos and the interface are just excellent. I have my money saved....
It has also been on my mind recently -> the idea of purchasing a mac mini for arount $1,000 to be my local server at home. Again, just like my thinking about a new MBP, I think I will wait until Lepord arrives.
- Finish Image / document Uploads please!

Here's the ride I plan to undertake tomorrow. Google quotes the distance at 31 Ks. Last weekend I managed to do about 60Ks on the bike, this week I'm aiming for the same, but I need to be at work by 11am, and Hayley needs to be there by 10am. Something tells me it will be an early start!
Check out the route, from Black Rock to Williamstown

Today it hit me that Google Analytics was a good idea. I don't know why I thought I'd need to pay for it! If I get these great stats about my website, imagine what google can compile about the millions of websites that use their service.... damn scary.

Jesse - Distracted says:
I'm hoping I have some time this weekend to look at that, but I don't have my mac until early next week so I might not get anything done.
Jesse - Distracted says:
off the top of my head, based on the shit website they have, they need a slightly better website than an online business card.
Jesse - Distracted says:
fine food / wine / awards / locations / contact
Jesse - Distracted says:
+ the posability of a 'newsletter' or 'product list' or maybe 'online ordering'
Jesse - Distracted says:
so, maybe the nav woudl ook like home / about / find foods / wine / awards / locations / contact
Jesse - Distracted says:
homepage would contain latest news

- Add AJAX and comment form to article/show page. Popup from mootools.
- Implement Captcha for comments.
- Add extra badges from here
- Image Uploads
- decide on enthusiasm or development and ways to incorporate both.
- Subversion and Capistrano I think...
- Tags functionality.
- decrease gap between title and 'posted by' line
- Upgrade running version to Edge Rails, and upgrade pagination to script/plugin install svn://errtheblog.com/svn/plugins/will_paginate
- Get HTML escape function working with code syntax blocks
- Ideas about implementing a wiki somehow
- have to have copies of each revision in the database.
- - start moving on "last updated (updates auto now)" and having a 'view by' option for the main page and categories.
- definatly, get some mootools going on
- Implement WYSIWYG for editing. But how will source highlighting work?
- change order of posts appearing in admin view, add category ajax select
- Create a CSS class to deal with quotes in posts. Use an image in the BG, two big quote marks would be awesome
- Layout left margin/padding on safari.

Trying out some code higlighting here.
verify :method => :post, :only => [ :destroy, :create, :update ], :redirect_to => { :action => :list }
def index
@page_title = 'blog'
@page_subtitle = 'Fight Club was the beginn\ing, now it\'s moved out of the basement, it\'s called Project Mayhem'
@article_pages, @articles = paginate :articles,:order=>'created_on desc', :per_page => 15
respond_to do |format|
format.html {render :action => "blog'.rhtml"}
format.rss {render :action => "rss.rxml", :layout => false }
format.xml {render :xml => @article.to_xml}
end
end
