So, I’ve switched form Gentoo to Ubuntu. It got to the point where I couldn’t compile anything. Mostly due to the lousy disk performance of my awesome new host. My first venture was Debian, but, I found it difficult to install newer packages (PHP5, Ruby, etc). I like Debian so Ubuntu was a natural second choice and they have the packages I need without having to futz with too many things.
New Deals
So, while re-configuring the web server (I’ve gone with Apache this time… more on that later) and re-installing WP, I found a couple of cool plugins. One is myGallery. It’s fancy. Have a look at the Photos section if your so inclined.
Another thing I’ve been working on is an AJAX recent track list for last.fm. It can be seen up top. Should work in Firefox, Safari and IE7 (I haven’t tested it in IE6… but hopefully it should work). Maybe in the coming days I’ll share the code… if your interested.
That’s all.
