I committed a small enhancement to Roller's CVS tonight. Twisty Comments should now be FIFO instead of LIFO. Most commenting features are designed this way, including Roller's other two options (popup and single-page). Thanks to Keith for testing out twisty comments and inspiring me to fix this bug.
My laptop is out of town, so I figured this would be a good time to send my phone (T68i) off and get the firmware updated. The reason I wanted
the update was to get a zoom feature on my Communicam. I documented the painful process a while back, and have been
putting it off ever since.
I called up tech support to make the request - and was disappointed to find out that they don't do requests, only repairs. This means no zoom for me, unless something actually breaks on the phone and I really need something to be fixed. The internet and information flow being the way it is though, I'm willing to bet that the firmware upgrade is out there (and downloadable), now I just need to find it!
Pssssstttt - have a hard time reading this site? Here's some homegrown zoom for ya.
Note to self: This may help you in running moblogger from a servlet:
Process p = Runtime.getRuntime().exec("/bin/chmod 700 /path/to/myfile");
I found this nugget on the tomcat-user mailing list - and I'm assuming it can be used to run any command-line process.
After trying to work with Hibernate's new Query by Criteria feature in version 2.0, I've come up with a page detailing what I'd like to see. Basically, this page results from the API not working for my needs - and since it's still in its infancy, hopefully this document will help shape it future. I'll add a comments link on the document (to this post) for any feedback or comments.
Erik hooked me up this morning with a link to Haiko's blog this morning - where I found the lovely ephPod software as an alternative to MusicMatch (the Windows software that comes with the iPod). I actually don't mind the MusicMatch software, though I did use ephPod to make and synchronize a playlist this morning. ephPod definitely looks better, but I like the organized-by-artist feature of MusicMatch.
I also found Outpod for quick-and-easy synchronization of Outlook contacts. This software worked very well - though I have no clue why I need my contacts on my iPod. They're already on my phone thanks to iSync and Bluetooth. What would be really cool is if my phone (T68i) had the iPod's capabilities and I could just listen to MP3's on my phone.
All in all, it was a great ride in this morning with a fresh batch of hand-picked songs - not to mention that the iPod is very light. I couldn't even feel it in my pocket - where as my old Sony Walkman would flop all over the place.
