Wireless Printing from Mac OS X to Windows XP
• February 14, 2005 • Apple, Technology • No comments
Now, I feel like a bit of a bonehead for not figuring this out earlier considering how much networking I’ve done over the last few years, but I’m thrilled that I finally figured out how to print a document from my wireless Powerbook to the printer connected to my Windows XP desktop. First off, here’s [...]
Mac OS X 10.3.8 Is Now Available!
• February 10, 2005 • Apple, Software, Technology • 1 comments
Normally, I don’t post about the latest updates to the Mac operating system, but this time is special. This is the most special of all updates because it fixes the two major problems that I’ve had ever since I bought my Powerbook G4 over the summer. “…a problem in which, on rare occasions, a PowerBook [...]
Tarzan 1.0.1 Now Available!
• February 3, 2005 • Code, Projects, Technology • No comments
Tarzan 1.0.1 is now available. This is a relatively minor update where only three things were changed: I resolved some localization issues that primarily affected France, Germany, and Japan. If you’re currently localized as an english-speaking country, you probably won’t notice anything new. However, setting the character encoding for your Tarzan-enabled pages to UTF-8 is [...]
Tarzan 1.0 Is Now Available!
• January 31, 2005 • Code, Projects, Technology • No comments
Tarzan 1.0 is now available! There were only a couple of minor bug fixes since RC2, so existing installations shouldn’t be affected at all. I’ve also written a custom extension for displaying my own wishlist. If you’re interested in checking it out to build off of for your own wishlists (or whatever else it might [...]

Localizing Tarzan and AWS 4.0
• January 25, 2005 • Code, Projects, Technology • 1 comments
The inital response to Tarzan has been very good! I got a handful of comments and several messages through my contact form about it. Overwhelmingly, people want to see Tarzan localized for their country’s version of Amazon. Initially, I started digging around to start implementing support for the UK. After a while of digging, however, [...]
Introducing Tarzan
• January 23, 2005 • Code, Projects, Technology • 7 comments
My birthday is in November, and Christmas is in December, so the “holidays” go for about a month-and-a-half. Every year, I’d start getting these questions like “What do you want for your birthday? What do you want for Christmas?”. Of course, when you’re asked on the spot like that, you can never remember what it [...]
SimplePie 0.96 Now Available!
• January 14, 2005 • Code, Projects, Syndication, Technology • 2 comments
I quietly posted SimplePie 0.96 a few days ago, after having it in place in SimpleReader for about a week before that. So far, so good. For those of you currently using SimplePie, this new version makes more strides towards improving support for sucky feeds, tested support for PHP 5, and other bits of fine-tuning. [...]
