Nerd party this Friday (January 8th 2010) at the Green Room, I will definitely be attending with Y2P. I guess they have wifi and decent drink prices so you should come early and horde the couches in the back (I plan to be there around 6PM).
Here’s a picture of the entrance so you’re not confused :

Hope to see you there! See this article for more info.
I guess tonight while packing I had a few too many cups of coffee so I was obviously wired and decided to sit down and write some code. I ended up writing an XMPP / Jabber relay for ENUMPlus which I must say works pretty damn good. Setting this all up is a three step process ;
- Create an account / Login to enumplus.org and click “Notifications”. Input your XMPP user account in the form and press “Send Me Notifications!”.
- Copy the provided dialplan addition and paste it into /etc/asterisk/extensions_custom.conf. Reload your dial plan of course with asterisk -rx “dialplan reload”.
- Add enumplus@gmail.com to your buddy list and test it out!
Here’s a screenshot to get started.
Anyway, go get signed up and test it out for yourself – it is a ton of fun!
Two CodeIgniter developers will be joining us for July’s Screencast – A spectacular C++ also PHP master Mr. Weston and of course myself. This month’s topic will be JQuery and Codeigniter which I assume will draw a crowd as it is a quickly emerging now that CI has really exploded in popularity.
We have room for 18 participants and would love to know what the audience (meaning you) wants to discuss specifically.
Today (June 23rd) at 8:00 PM I will be hosting a 1 1/2 hour DimDim meeting for anyone interested in getting started with CodeIgniter. I am by no means a CodeIgniter “guru” but I love sharing knowledge and feel that this could be a beneficial webinar to attend.
Schedule:
Part I – Basic Principles and Standards
Part II – Open Q&A
Once again this is a Basic introduction so there are no stupid questions – looking forward to seeing you there!
I will be accepting 20 participants (first come – first serve).
As most of you Cogeco subscribers know, Cogeco is implementing a new “Pay Per Gigabyte” plan for any cap overages – according to the DSLReport forums – this should be fully functional as of June 1st. So I have taken the initiative to give these crooks a run for their money and TAX their service like all hell. A few days back when I received my 100GB cap email, they said they would credit my account for any overages (for this month… how generous…) – I immediately fired up hellanzb and logged into Merlins Portal. This screenshot is just the tip of the iceberg:

Take that Cogeco!
Anyway, my download queue is almost empty – I encourage you all to take advantage of their generosity.
