What is the reality of the situation.



    #wiki fever.

    Final thoughts of the evening before passing out in a puddle of my own cortical juices…

    Currently addicted to VoodooPad …er… Lite version anyway. The personal Wiki r0xx0rs my b0xx0rs. I’d heard about it about a month ago and was intrigued. I was a little hesitant to dive in though b/c my notes etc. were all jotted on to little Stickies Cmd+H’d out of view etc. etc. But I took the 1/2 hr the other morning to cram some of the more pertinent info in there and I’ve been in love since the 2nd hr of using it. Content w/ the Lite version for now but I have a sneaking suspicion that going to the full version may become necessary.

    On the Wiki front, my experimentation w/ XWiki has taken a nice turn. I’d been farting around with it for the past couple weeks trying to get the thing up and running with limited success. After I re-installed it (”completely” this time…) I managed to put a lot of the pieces together that hadn’t been adding up (”connecting the dots”, if you will) and breathed a few sighs of relief. Grooming that bad boy to see how it’ll work out if I deploy it at the office. Still some things about it that bug me but we’ll get where we need to be through hacks and/or brute force.

    Now I shall brute force myself to sleep.

      [...] Fighting w/ CSS. This wiki thing is working out great (certain … uh … politics aside) except for how it seems to only play nice in Firefox. Haven’t checked Mozilla but I’m sure it’s fine in there. The IE and Safari caveats are driving me fucking bananas though. Wrestling w/ stylesheets written by other folks. I suppose I’ll come out the other side having learned something. But I just want things to NOT GET CUT OFF. As one of my web developer friends commented recently: “Seriously, sometimes putting stuff in a table is just the only way to go.” [...]
