I had such plans for today. I was going to run lots of errands, call a multitude of people who had birthdays last week and wish them well, get the grocery shopping done, etc., etc. Instead, a five-minute WordPress upgrade ended up eating my day. Thanks OH SO FRACKING MUCH, … [Read more...] about FatCow: no love for WordPress
Web Design
Dreamweaver, WebDAV, my foot, and Transmit
So it turns out that in version 8, the latest, the wizards over at Adobe > Macromedia managed to completely, totally, utterly HOSE Dreamweaver's WebDAV compatibility. On both platforms it fouls up the lock files, and on Macs it's so slow as to be entirely unusable. I've been … [Read more...] about Dreamweaver, WebDAV, my foot, and Transmit

I've been working through First Draft in 30 Days, a not-bad book with a misleading title (outline, not draft) and an execrable website. The book is full of silly little worksheets that … [Read more...] about Writing. Whee. Also, site fixed.
Automator script for Word HTML cleanup
So, the other Steph and I were kvetching earlier about the lousy Word HTML we have to clean up all day… and I remembered something. A long time ago, I'd tried to use AppleScript to make the Word Unmunger's batch mode easier to use. At the time, AppleScript defeated … [Read more...] about Automator script for Word HTML cleanup
