Monkey Business

Not much to report really this New Years Eve aside from the php bittorrent front end is going very well. It now supports multiple simultaneous downloads and proper output handling. Should hopefully implement a load more functions for status checking over the next couple of days!

Found a cool little site yesterday, take a look at guimp.com (excuse the poor joke!). This one isn’t for those with poor eyesight but is a very good demonstration of the principle of space saving ^_^

Coincidentally 2004 is the year of the monkey.

Torrent Station

As if I didn’t have enough to do I’ve just started a new little project to build a php based front end to BitTorrent so it can be remotely controlled via a web browser. I only started on it yesterday but already have a working prototype that currently only supports one download at a time but hopefully will support more soon.

In other news… The release of “A Sniffy Sort of Christmas - Volume ‘03″ has been heralded a huge success already selling over 300% more copies than Vol. ‘02!

Seasonal Joys

As usual Christmas is over before you even feel it’s started (for me anyhow), but it has been pretty good with the food being the highlight as ever! Already I noticed preparations are underway for New Year but some people have already taken it way too far :confused:

Hopefully the people round here won’t keep up their dreadful Christmas lights for much longer - when I happened across a two meter high Winnie The Pooh dressed as Father Christmas down the road the other day I really felt that values of taste and decency were dead and perhaps its time to move house!

Monopolised

Christmas eve is here already but unfortunately the same cannot be said for Amazon who still have yet to deliver all the stuff I ordered on Dec 8 for people’s presents - there’s a small chance it might arrive today but I’m not counting on it! For me one of the most important aspects of this season is the food and that’s still on the table if my mum has anything to do with it :) Tonight hopefully we’ll be in for a mega game of Monopoly with all the family but unfortunately certain members do try to curtail the game after a few hours - not this year though if I have anything to do with it.

All that’s left to say is have a very merry Christmas!

Compilation

Reinstalled the Norwich server yesterday afternoon with a fresh copy of Slackware 9.1 and have just posted my refined Kernel 2.6.0 Compile Guide. All seems to be working pretty well so far - the web page for the Norwich server will be available at norwich.randomwire.com eventually but won’t be anything special!
