10+ YEARS


Over 10 years ago, I wrote my first blog post. Since then, I've authored books, had kids, traveled the world, found Trish and blogged about it all.

How blogging has helped me this morning

My early-morning blog reading comes through once again. First off, Charles explains how I should implement Remember Me. If understand him correctly, I basically need to create a new table (i.e. user_cookie) that has two columns: username and cookie_id - where cookie_id is a random 128 bit number. The key to his strategy is replacing the number with a new one everytime the user logs in. Why didn't I think of that? Thanks Charles!

Secondly, this Tweaking MySQL Primer (via Erik) has some good tips on MySQL. I'd prefer a more generic "tweak your database" howto that covered many databases, but this will have to do for now. I'm going to try a little OPTIMIZE tablename on this site in a few - it's it's down all morning, now you know why...

Lastly, what the hell are Erik and Rick Ross cooking up?

I spent five hours on the phone with Rick Ross (of Javalobby) on Saturday afternoon. I think we effectively fixed everything that is wrong in the world. Stay tunned. ;-)

WTF? 5 hours on the phone? I don't think I've spent 5 hours on the phone with anyone in my entire life. It must be good - or they're not very good communicators... ;-)

Are you using a RSS aggregator or do you just read blogs through your browser? When I first started reading blogs my browser was fine, but now I try to skim through about 25 ~ 30 and check out Erik Thauvin's blog. Without a reader my method is to open my bookmark file in my browser and then just go down the list of blogs right-clicking on them and opening them in new tabs. I get about five open, read them, close them, and then go back to the bookmark page and do it again. Ugly, but it's quick. Thanks... Erik

Erik - I use NetNewsWire on the Mac, and a set of bookmarked tabs on Windows. So I do both depending in which machine I'm on. Since I work from home twice a week, those are the days I use Windows XP and Firebird's bookmarks. When I'm at the client, I don't read blogs. ;-)
