It’s T-minutes 2 hours now till I roll up at my desk at 6:00 am to get started on preparing for the new PayPerPost.com release at 7:00 am. Not a big deal since I’m up at 3:00 am anyhow but this release is special to me and I’ve been waiting over a month to get this release out.

Today’s release incorporates a section that houses employee created plug-ins and applications as well as non-employee PayPerPost related plug-ins and applications. I have three lined up and ready to go. Last week I was finally given permission to release what I had but could not make any “official” announcements about it. Today’s release is finally going to bring some closure for me.

Well at least for now. An idea for another widget is trying to make itself heard in the crevices of my brain.

The other day I was introduced to a web application called eyeOS and I didn’t get a chance to play with it until this weekend. Now that I have finally gotten to kick the tires on it I have found that it is a great program. Especially since I work off three different computers at times.

eyeOS is a web based operating system. It very much looks and feels like one as well. You have a desktop with a traditional file system complete with a trash folder. It has games, applications, a browser, and two text editors. What is really good for me is that files can up loaded and then down loaded as well.

Installation is extremely easy in that you don’t need a database! All that is required is the uploading of three files and an img folder. Set the permissions to full read/write/execute and proceed to the install.php file. It will as for the root user password and complete the install. You’re done. Granted be sure to log in as the root and create yourself as a user to avoid using the root account all the time.

I really like this program and I recommend that anyone who needs a central repository give this a try.

It’s Sunday now and I’ve spent nearly the entire weekend working on some Word Press plugins that have buzzing around my head. I probably shouldn’t officially tell you what they are yet because I have to wait till early this week to officially make an announcement on my other plugin. I’m sure if you look in the navigation to the left you might get a good clue as to what they are.

The first undisclosed plugin is really neat. My forum avatars now rotate on every page view. No more being limited to one avatar. It also works as a photo gallery if I choose. The second plugin really helps me as a developer because I can upload the files to the site. Then with the special code provide monitor the views and downloads of the files.

So that was my weekend really. I have to run to do my homework now and we have peeps coming over for dinner tonight. So I best leave now. If you do try the plugins I really hope you enjoy them.
