We’ve re-posted the “COM XML-RPC” object- the first version had a bug in the type library that meant you had to instantiate it with the version number.
Wheeeeeeee! This is my first posting ever from my new… iBook! Yes, we’d been talking about it for a loooong time, and finally we decided to do it. We’re headed cross country next week, and I need to keep in touch with the rest of the world. How would I update this site without it?
Robert over at Bump has a picture of himself in his office - check out the iBook. It looks like Robert is resting comfortably in an Aeron chair from Herman Miller. Lucky bum.
Robert’s been listening to Rush, a fine Canadian band - one of the finest. The title of Bump today is from “Subdivisions”.
Mike Murry is having trouble using the “COM XML-RPC” object from Cold Fusion. I don’t have any Cold Fusion experience (yet)- could someone help him out?
A web morality tale from WebFaust. Ouch.
Mac Mom: “It worked!” My mother joins the ranks of the Manila Newbies. If André’s girlfriend and Brent’s wife (link?) can do it, so can my mother. Go Mom!
Adobe releases SVG plugins for the browsers, and converters for Illustrator.
I think SVG is a good idea, and I think with Adobe behind it, it won’t go the way of VRML, a 3d format that has faded from view. As an XML-based format, it will be easy to generate dynamic vector-based graphics, oh yeah. Now- if Adobe wants this format to be widely adopted, put out Freehand converters. Sure, Macromedia’s probably working on it, but Adobe has the head start. Show some internet good will and do it, Adobe.
Robert Ochiallini outlines Bump’s business strategy for the forseeable future. I’ve decided that I’m aligning my strategy with Robert’s, and I am actively looking for Redmonk.Net to be acquired. As an outlet for “COM XML-RPC” products, and sporting a spiffy new vaguely Germanic interface, we at Redmonk.Net believe that we would be a valuable addition to Bump’s internet offerings.
