I guess I just did. (:

Woohoo.
I now have website themes on my homepage; a result of staying up a bit late a few evenings ago, writing a bit of web code. It's thanks to some nifty use of PHP, XHTML, and CSS.
Changes, etc.
Today, we had to take Occy.Net down. This makes my home page currently inaccessable. You can read the scoop on the site.
In the mean time, I am working on getting another place to host my web site and e-mail.
In other (unrelated) news, Comcast finally switched away from using @home in my area. As a result, half the 'Net is slow (packet loss & bad routing) and the other half is unaccessable. Unfortunately, my connection is also unstable, so I have pinged out a few times on IRC already.
Now for the good news of today: I have updated my Advogato diary finally! Woohoo! (:
An entry here has been long overdue. Too long.
Strangely enough, there isn't much to say at the moment.
Oh well.
Long time no post. (:
I've been busy working on the next generation of Linux.com. It's going to really rock. It's going to feature tons of CSS niceness and still (somehow) be compatible with Netscape 4.x. It already meets these goals on the development site. *grin*
So anyway, enough about work.
I've updated my personal web site a little bit tonight. Fun stuff there.
Now for something totally different:
Mozilla. It's the hype of the day. If not, it's at least the topic of discussions and rants on a few of the IRC channels and mailing lists that I am on. I think it's a good thing. There have been many speed improvements and bugfixes over since the 0.8 release alone, and many more to come shortly around the corner.
Sure, you might not be a developer of Mozilla directly, but there are ways you can help... Report a bug. Don't forget that Tuesdays are bugdays, afterall! (Drop by #mozillazine on irc.mozilla.org and report, report, report!)
Anyway... I really should post more often.

New HTML Parser: The long-awaited libxml2 based HTML parser code is live. It needs further work but already handles most markup better than the original parser.
