DJ’ing with Ableton Live This application is a really versatile sequencing application that runs on both Windows and Mac OS X. I’ve been playing with it since they released the Mac OS X version in January.

Macromedia: Best Practices with CSS in Dreamweaver MX

I think that I am experiencing Macromedia MX overload. Having all this new stuff at once has made me like a kid in a candy store, but now I have the ensuing tummy ache. I take back the majority of what I said in my rant on Friday. Dreamweaver MX appears to make me want to buy it when it is released. I don’t say this lightly, I’ve been a BBEdit addict for the last six years of my life. What they’ve done with it makes it a much closer Mac replacement for Cold Fusion Studio than anything else. I’ve got Cold Fusion MX running on a server here at the Bump clubhouse. By all appearances, I’m impressed and want very much to do real live work with it and the Flash remoting stuff. Anyway, I’m a little bleary eyed right now. Time for some shuteye.
I’ve been having this routing issue on my home network. I couldn’t figure out for the life of me what was causing it, but it was causing annoying problems with certain Internet apps, and also with some file sharing. This afternoon, I was moving my Airport Base Station, and ended up plugging it into a different port on my router. Poof. Problem solved.

CFCzone.org is a site devoted to Cold Fusion Components, which are one of the new features in Cold Fusion MX.

I need a new logo for this site. My design skills really don’t include logo design. I have no experience with it at all. So I’m asking for help. The help could either be the enabling kind where you tell me to check things out, suggest a methodology and tools, and then I go off and do my thing or the help could be in the form of actual design help. Since I’m not exactly rolling in the dough these days, far from it actually but that’s another story altogether, I can’t really offer anything aside from gratitude and credit or possibly some sort of barter. If this sounds like something you’d be interested in, mail me. Thanks.
There are some really useful and interesting ColdFusion MX Resources up on Ben Forta’s site. For those unfamiliar with Cold Fusion, Ben Forta is sort of like the Obi Wan Kenobi of the Cold Fusion world.
For the music listener’s in the audience, these iTunes Applescripts do all manner of useful things like provide better handling of your Library and let you set a whole genre to a specific EQ setting. Best of all, they are provided by Apple. Why didn’t they just ship them with the application itself? If you are interested in digging into doing some scripting yourself, there is some great information on this page, (this site also has more downloadable scripts.)

Almost as if in response to my rant about their two unreleased products for Mac OS X, Macromedia announced, and released preview versions of Dreamweaver MX and Fireworks MX
Apple released substantially upgraded PowerBooks today. My first generation Titanium, which I supposed was going to last me for at least two years, is now only 13 months old, and I still want one of these newer ones for the increased processor speed, level 3 cache, and increased video memory.
