Social updates

As I say at the top of this site, my social-style entries are posted to a separate Ode blog instance at updates.stevenrosenberg.net. The Ruby script I use to do this is pretty ugly, but I released it on Github anyway. I started working on a version that is much more class-based (as in object-oriented), but that project stalled out a bit. I'm considering bringing this concept to Android, or doing it in Java with a JavaFX GUI, or doing it in Node.js for JavaScript practice.

As for entries from this blog, they make their way to Twitter via IFTTT. I didn't want to pay to keep using dlvr.it. I understand their business model, but this is small potatoes, and if I can get it for free, I will. I could just as easily use the Twitter API and leave these services out altogether.

Hello, world — this is my website

No databases were harmed in the making of this blog

You're seeing this blog, powered by Ode, through the magic of the Perl programming language and the Common Gateway Interface. Also involved: the Apache web server and Linux operating system.

Ode does not use a database to store content. Instead, every entry exists on the web server as a "flat" text file.

Comments are managed via Disqus, integrated through the work of Ode project leader Rob Reed.

Counter and categories: Thanks to Rob Reed for his help on the Counter addin, which provides the post-count and category features seen above. The show/hide feature is coded with inline JavaScript.
