I stumbled across this site earlier and thought it was a bit more similar to what I want to build. The transaction page (just going off the demo video) is a simpler, though–transactions can only have one category. I definitely want to support multiple tags per entry.
I’ve also been thinking about other ways […]
I saw this over on Yahoo! Sports today: a chart comparing Bonds’ home run totals by year with Hank Aaron’s. I know it’s Flash 9, and I’m assuming they did it with Flex Charting. This is the kind of fun little chart that really shows the potential, I think.
Way back in high school, I ordered a DVD called Perfect Blue from a flier somewhere (I think I was a member of the “SciFi Bookclub” or something at the time). I’d never heard of it before, but it reviewed as a Hitchcock-esque anime with overtones of Philip K. Dick. I didn’t much […]
At work, I’ve been spending a ridiculous amount of time with Flex’s charting components. Eventually I want to move in to doing more of the Ruby on Rails stuff, too, though–so I’ve been trying to think of projects I could do on the side as a kind of warm-up diversion. Being new at […]
A random smattering of thoughts and occurances from the last few days:
After experiencing it first-hand, I was told that the traffic on El Camino doubles every time the temperature rises 10 degrees.
Moving into a new apartment is expensive (this week’s buy: cookware).
When you buy new lamps, they should come with comlementary light bulbs so you […]
I went camping over the weekend–a yearly canoe trip that my roommate last summer invited me on. We drove up to Alexander Valley on Friday night, canoed down the Russian River on Saturday, and hung out at a winery (and played Bocci Ball) on Sunday. Despite the title, I actually did a pretty […]
Diana and I had dinner with a friend of hers from UPenn yesterday. Her friend chose a place in downtown Mountain View called Nami Nami. All I knew going into it was that it was a Japanese restaurant. It was decently fancy ($190 with tip for the three of us), but quite […]
So, being a big Braves fan, paying $12 or whatever it was to listen to the games online was a no-brainer. Most of the games start at 7:05 or 7:35 EST, so listening to the game at work is a good wind-down for the day’s work. Today’s complaints are on the interface employed […]
I moved into my apartment Friday afternoon…and this has been a truly exhausting weekend. I can’t wait for the work week to start up so I can finally get some rest. I got my key at around 3:00 and immediately headed back out to get a few things I knew I’d need. […]
