Well, coldacid.net is up, and running. But I've still got to move content over from the old site, and start adding new stuff (like actual sites for my projects).

It's nice having a domain as opposed to a subdomain or directory for my website, and it's even nicer just using Drupal instead of having to hack together my own system. That's not to say that I suck, but I'm a lazy person and I'm most certainly prone to finding easier ways to do things. If it wasn't for creative and lazy people like myself, though, we'd never have advanced from tree-swinging primates.

There's a Drupal user group here in Toronto, and I've been interested in attending one of their meetings since finding out about them. Rob and I run quite a few Drupal sites (such as this one), and it'd be good for us to meet with other people who do the same. You know, learn from them, show them our own tricks, etc. Anyway, the Toronto group is apparently meeting tonight over at Linuxcaffe at 6pm. I'm planning to be there, and if I can get ahold of Rob, I'm going to see if I can drag him out, too.

So Rob and I are here at the Drupal User Group meeting, as it is. Only four people, counting Rob and I, actually showed up! But we've seen some really neat stuff, and shared our own.

Rob demonstrated the use of the Views module, and one of the other guys, Rob Milne, showed us his AJAX file manager WebFM. Also present, and discussing his experiences with Drupal, is Mat Korica. I was expecting more people to show up, but the four of us have certainly been having an informative time.

Because Rob hosts quite a few websites for quite a few people, many of them using Drupal, he decided to rearrange everything so that each site's custom files are in each user's own space, rather than the main site. While a good thing to do normally, Rob had unfortunately gone overboard, and thus the entire site has been screwed up. The theme I was using is dead and gone (as well as the logo I painstakingly put together), as have the views and panels I created to make everything look good.

Looks like everything's back to how it was.

I'm going to start using temporary pages for project information. I was actually hoping to upload v0.4.0 of cIRCulation today, but there's not enough time left to do so (I'm at the public library, so that means only an hour of access, combined with horribly slow upload speeds). Hopefully I can take care of that tomorrow, along with Alarm Clock and a few other things.

It's taken a while, but I've finally gotten some of my projects up on the site.

I've made Alarm Clock 0.2.0 available for download from this site now. Previously it was only available at the old website, but now it's here as well. I'll probably be releasing 0.5.0 some time soon (versions 0.3.0 and 0.4.x are private releases), and by 0.6.x the "radio" functionality should be added.

(Not to be picking at them or anything, but I just found it to be a very interesting expression.)
