This January I started using

This January I started using MacJournal. Have tried several other products. However, for me this works best. Tried to convert my last digital journal without success. Did manage to convert it to text. However, all the dates were lost. From the subject matter reconstruct the approximate dates … This exercise pointed out a major problem with digital journals. That is, they are only as durable as the software used to create them. With my first two, I never considered archiving content in a format readily imported into other applications. I did create backups. Problem is these backups require the original application… MacJournal provides multiple export options including saving in HTML.

Spent a few enjoyable hours recovering a digital journal covering the period from September 1999 – June 2003. Reading this record events and my thoughts brought back so many memories. Its like time traveling back to the past. Think I would like to add some notes like from an outside agent who knows how it all turns out …

In January, 2003 I installed

In January, 2003 I installed MT and began blogging. MT is a great product. From the very first day I have had no problems. So why change? It is a time issue … and blog administration is something I can eliminate. So to this end I am giving Blogger a try. So far it seems simple. Did notice that spell check does not work. My browser is Safari 1.2.4, perhaps that the cause. The help screen is not clear as to what functionality is supported.

Took some time off from work this morning. Not by choice… Have two appointments. The first is with our home builder. Seems like we have several drywall cracks we want repaired. Second, our Sprint Broadband internet is down. Have had this service for the past 6 years and this is the first hardware problem. If you can get their service its the best. Fortunatly we have QWest DSL as a backup. Its OK but not a reliable as Sprint. Cox service, at least in my neighborhood SUCKS. Its downtime was in excess of 50%.

Here are some code snippets

Here are some code snippets which I used to load usercontrols dynamically
–The way to load
protected override void OnInit(System.EventArgs e)
{
// Add the header and footer controls
header hdr = (header) LoadControl(“/include/Header.ascx”);
if(hdr!=null)
{
hdr.AppTitle = mySettings[“ApplicationTitle”].ToString();
hdr.ID = “header”;
this.Controls.AddAt(0,hdr);
}

–The way to find
//_ctl0_lblTitle
header hdr = (header) this.FindControl(“header”);
if(hdr!=null)
{
hdr.PageTitle = value;
}
