Ecto 3 and MarsEdit 2

Ecto 3 is due any decade now. I'm reminded of the glacial pace every time Daniel says something about MarsEdit 2.0.

Sunday at the U.S. Open

I sat in the same seat for 14 hours, arriving just past 5:00 in the morning. And it wasn't even the best spot!
But it was pretty good, and my notes are here.
It will be good to get back and see my family.

Saturday at the U.S. Open

This is the one post I won't just refer to The Sand Trap. I didn't write anything Saturday there.
I met my cousin at about 7:15 by the second green, and we watched 19 golfers go through the second hole. Masters champ Zach Johnson triple bogeyed after putting in a bunker to get to a [...]

Friday at the U.S. Open

I spent Friday at the U.S. Open (as I will every day this week except Wednesday) and my observations are here. Executive summary: Steve and I watched seven hours of golf at the first and ninth holes and we saw one birdie. One.
Oh, and Phil Mickelson is a silly, whiny man.

U.S. Open Predictions

They're here. I'm going with Tiger… big surprise.

Tuesday at the U.S. Open

Observations from Tuesday are here.
Played at Cranberry Highlands this evening. Pace of play was absolutely dreadful. Over five hours for twosomes. Played a scramble on the back nine and, largely on my ball, was -1 until we quit in the middle of 18 because we were sick of waiting and it was getting dark.

Monday at the U.S. Open

Observations can be found here.
Unfortunately, I played a golf course called "Alcoma" before going to the U.S. Open. Ugh is all I can say about that.

MovableType 4 Beta

Yawn.

Though I don't assign multiple categories to posts here at nslog.com, I do at The Sand Trap in two instances: for "Hot Topics" and "Reviews." The former helps me fill out the "Top Stories" section in the sidebar and the latter simply helps me direct people to our reviews (via http://thesandtrap.com/reviews/).
I discovered in WordPress 2.0.x [...]

Since updating to WordPress 2.2, times reported back to my blog editor (be it ecto or MarsEdit) are incorrect. They're the UTC time and not the adjusted time (-4 for me currently). Since ecto and, I presume, other blog editors pass the time along as part of the XMLRPC statement when they're posted, subsequent editing [...]

WordPress Hack to Search Pages?

Can WordPress be hacked to search pages as well as blog posts? This functionality would be nice for a site I've recently done at edga.org, most of which is built on WordPress pages, and for a site I'm currently working on.
A search turns up a bunch of SEO-related pages as well as this plugin from [...]

Don Imus Fired

I may have more to say on this later, but for now, just a poll.

Should Don Imus have been Fired for Saying 'Nappy Headed Hos'? Yes No View Results

Launchbar vs. QuickSilver

I use LaunchBar. It does all I need - quickly launch things or allow me to drag and drop. I can even add items to the party shuffle (though I wish I could disable certain functions, like "play" and a lot of the other iTunes shortcut).
LaunchBar or Quicksilver? LaunchBar Quicksilver Neither View Results

I despise - absolutely despise - feeds advertised as "RSS" which are actually Atom feeds. Oftentimes, FeedBurner factors into the equation.
If you're going to list a few varieties of feeds, ostensibly letting people choose which format they'd like, I say you provide that freakin' format. Don't switch it on the back end.
Why? Because some home-grown [...]

Today’s Post

One of the habits I got into was writing something every day on my blog, and usually not just some "I posted" type of post, but something with at least a little meat or which is a little interesting.
Today I wrote something, but will not be publishing it for some time. The executive summary: some [...]
