Everyting Tech
But first, Morning I had our draft report submission. We were not completely ready as one of the guys who was supposed to complete the report index (You would not now how long an index a 100 page report can make:wink: ) never mailed it to us and was ex-communicando in the morning. So we went in for the submission without that.
Now once we were in college, there was someone else giving a demo of their project so we had to wait a pretty much long time. And gawd… was it hot. I was getting frustrated having to wait there in the heat. Well we finally got a system with a cd-rom drive and got the lecturer to sit with us long enough to explain the report. It was sorta fun. We BSed quite a bit but managed to convince him that our project was quite cool :-D
Now all we need is the external guide’s approval and we are home free literally.
Then we all waited in the college just chatting before everyone decided to leave.
I am tired. Its 2130 hrs here and I have just returned from office. The deadline for the report cometh and there is still work to be done. I am tired, sleepy and pissed.
To top it, our project guide is on a trip to the UK and so all the report review and suggestions take place through e-mail. Just adds to the delays.
I will sure be happy when this project gets over.
Oh.. More bad news… It is only the beginning cos I am gonna become a s/w developer. So it wont be the last time that I will be staying late in the office for a deadline.
Arrrrgggghhhhhh……
We are in the final stages of our project completetion. It is getting hectic with the documentation work which is not complete. And the draft has to be submitted tomorrow :!:
It is getting tight. Had a long day today with all the report work to be done. We should be able to finish most of it by tomorrow though. But we still have a bit of work on the project left over. I plan to sit on it tomorrow for the entire day. Will try and finish it within the weel :roll:
Lets see how it goes.
ok. I have not been able to obtain a backup of the database. I am still gonna install pixelpost on the same DB anyway.
I only hope is that the content survives and I still have the blog as it is :neutral:
Voila.. The attempt worked.*phew* I now have a working photo blog though I will not give out the link as yet since there are no photos there yet ;-) (There _is_ a clue in this post abt what it is called ;-) )
Will do once I put a few up :-D
Ok.. Something is reaaaaalllly wrong with my time since plugin. It shows the time since the entry was posted for the previous one as -1 yr and 12 months. Just hover over it and have a good laugh.
I have been breaking my head over it as to why it does not work but to no avail X-( It is really frustrating and I’ll go to sleep over this :sad:
Ok.. I am ready to take the risk cos backing up the DB will take some time cos it takes a lot of time to communicate with the hoster.
Another problem now. I need a name for my photoblog. I cant think of any and none of my friends can…
Someone suggest one ASAP :?:
I am thinking of starting a photoblog too. I think I will use a photoblog suite called PixelPost, considered one of the best photoblog tools. Only trouble is, it requires a DB and I am not sure I want to risk using the WP(WordPress), that is my current blog’s DB just in the case that PixelPost decides it should be cleaned of all data and started afresh.
I tried making a backup of the DB but could not get /phpmyadmin/ to get to work. I even sent a support request to my hosting providers Symonds.Net and he tried to be helpful but only told me what I already know. So I sent him a mail asking him to do the backup and send it to me via e-mail. He is yet to respond but I guess that is due to it probably being night in the US where I assume they are located. I hope he replies by tomorrow so I can start photo-blogging :-D
An update to WordPresss.. Wheeee!
I love it when a new update is announced..It means more bug-fixes and more features. And the new version of WP does not disappoint. It has quite a few bug-fixes and changes. The most immediate noticeable change for me was the colorisation of the activated plugins as I activated them one by one after the upgrade. Makes a lot more easier to identify which are in use and which are lying around unused :-D
Apart from that, I managed to install a lot of cool plugins and update my blog’s look and feel quite a bit. One of the most noticeable changes is the weather updates of my city and an option to allow the viewer to choose a theme to suit to their liking.
Other subtle changes is a date on-hover time modified display (Hover over the date of the entry posting to see) and a insta-comment preview.
I have quite a bit of other plugins lined up too. Will get them online in the next two days or so ;-)
