PayPal Developer Day Perth
Through some work of magic i dragged myself out of bed at 6am this morning so i could get into the city by 8am to goto the PayPal Developer Day, a half day event put on by PayPal to engage the web developer community. While the day was great and I learnt alot about PayPal’s products, a few issues come to mind.
You Don’t Need Find The Phone Apps..
Last night mid-way through my train ride home i had a sudden realisation, i had no idea where my phone was and I left the office with it, OUCH. The though patterns started to retrace, etc. I got off the train a stop early and shot to my parents house to use their phone to try call it, unfortunately the battery on my phone was dead.
Sitting at my parents house I started to realise where it got to and convinced my mum to drive me 40 odd minutes back to work and wait for me while I looked everywhere for it. You can be assured I didn’t find it and in a way I’m kind of retrospectively happy about it. read more…
Old Music I Made
Way back in 2005/2006/2007 my audio PC was rocking hard and i was trying my best to punch out some drum n bass and learn my way through Cubase.
What i’ve embedded below is the 2 “finished” (term used very loosely) drum and bass tunes that i did during that time. Steeple was the first tune i ever completed in Cubase, a few came before it unfinished or finished in various Tracker applications pre-2000. Unfortunately i think i lost the most recent version of both of these tracks, it’s on a CD somewhere, so enjoy Steeple and Transform, my terrible gift to you.
Ruxton – Steeple
Ruxton – Transform
It’d also be nice to hear some feedback, if you want drop a comment below and let me know what you think. It’s been nearly 4 years since these were finished and while i have no intention of reworking them or revisiting them, it’s always nice to hear other peoples views.
I wrote this little post quite some time ago, around the weekend my first 2 sites were accepted into the Woopra Beta.
If you’re wondering how to pronounce Woopra, i like to think it has an exclamation mark on the end (Woopra!) and that it’s the sound Bruce Lee makes when he karate chops your arse. Because I get the impression thats exactly what Woopra is going to do to online analytics.
Got a worpdress blog? do you link to the iTunes Store with or without an affiliate program? this plugins for you!
The plugin adds an itunes button to the visual editor which when clicked brings forward a dialog containing a search for the iTunes store link maker.
After searching, clicking on any link will ask for a title for the link and insert it into the content editor. The link also enables the ability to directly link to albums, something the standard link generator does not normally do.
Enough gaff, if you want it, it’s here. It’ll be on wordpress.org soon enough.
