By some fluke of circumstances, I have ended up listening to my iTunes library organised by song name, beginning with Sonic Youth – Teenage Riot. It’s shaping up into a nice little playlist – who needs a DJ 😉
Teen Age Riot – Sonic Youth
Teenage Ska – The Skatalites And Friends
Tell Her Tonight – Franz Ferdinand
Tell Mama – Janis Joplin
Tell Me Baby – Red Hot Chili Peppers
Tell Me Why – Neil Young
Tell You Why Tomorrow – Husker Du
Temptation island – love as laughter

I have a real-world example of where this would be useful in plone skinning – in some places inline images are still used for icons (here and there – they are generally being phased out). At the moment I usually set them to display:none and apply padding and background image to the containing element, but this may be a better solution.
I’m surprised that I still can’t find an ftp export plugin for iPhoto. This would be really handy for maintaining websites but also using the ftp facility with photobox . In fact a photobox export plugin for iPhoto would be even better. If anyone knows of one or a tried and tested solution please leave a comment here!
and just like that my battery fixed itself! Ha. if only – I actually coughed up and bought one from ebay in the end as the Apple store one isn’t going to arrive until well after plone conf seattle (but when it does i’ll have a spare which will give me a full working days worth of battery power). I think the calibration is confused at the moment as it thinks I have 4539mAh capacity (out of 4400mAh) – the battery status think in mac osx is stuck on “calculating”
This is a useful article about what Content Management is (and isn’t). Probably very useful to give to clients who aren’t sure what they want or need (or don’t need) in the way of a CMS.
Fantastic – at last a solution to IE background image flicker that doesn’t involve applying background images to containing elements. I will be using this – I’ll be interested to know if I can use the IE CSS filter version without a performance hit, as that could just sit in my IE-only stylesheet.
As I mentioned before a few of us from netsight are going to Plone Conference 2006 in Seattle. Besides actually attending the conference i’ve been reading up on other things to check out while i’m there. I plan to visit a few of these coffee shops with wifi and i’ve also just read that the blog business summit is also on at the same time – maybe there could be a bit of cross-fertilisation there as many of the plone bloggers will be at Plone conf?
something worth bearing in mind when moving a plone site (or upgrading a plone site, or any other process that requires a full export and reimport of a plone site). If like me you have a habit of installing lots of products just to see what they do, it is worth uninstalling them (removing any objects in the site created using them first) before you do the export. Otherwise you might just find yourself having to track down all the products you used at any point on the site before it will let you import the zexp.
I wonder if I am missing here – While the plone navtree is set up to help me apply a style to the currently selected item, I can’t think of a way to apply a style to the parent folder of that item. If the current location is something like:-
root -> sub-folder 1 -> item 3
“item 3″ will have a class of :”navTreeCurrentItem” applied to it, but I would also like “sub-folder 1” to have a class, something like “navTreeCurrentNode” so that I could apply a style to that too.
I can’t think of a straightforward way (well, any way in fact, I get so lost trying to find the relevant bit of code in plone 2.5) to do this, please let me know!
