Window on the World- Without Leaving your House!


I found something extraordinarily cool on the internets the other day- it's called What I See Out My Window.

Anthony McCune, writer, photographer, artistic soul at large, has made this blog solely for people to see the view from each others' windows. I love this idea so much!

Here's my 'window view', which you can see on the site, along with others'.
Check it out, submit your view, and let's connect the world, one window at a time!

Those Darn Externals

So I'm creating a blog for a client and I thought that I would just use typo. It's simple to use, is now on Ruby on Rails, and I can modify later. So I download it, load up my settings, and then try to throw it into my repository. Nope, not happening.

Apparently typo has a few exports up their sleeves that I wasn't aware of. It's not as simple as exporting the typo dir, because then you freaking miss those libraries. So here's a quick guide to getting your own clean, frozen typo.


svn co http://svn.typosphere.org/typo/trunk typo_stable
svn export typo_stable typo
svn export typo_stable/vendor/rails typo/vendor/rails
svn export typo_stable/vendor/plugins/rspec_on_rails typo/vendor/plugins/rspec_on_rails
svn export typo_stable/vendor/plugins/rspec typo/vendor/plugins/rspec
svn export typo_stable/vendor/plugins/acts_as_list typo/vendor/plugins/acts_as_list
rm -Rf typo_stable


Now just add that to your repository and you're golden. You know what to do from here. Get back to work! :P
