Hey, happy new year! The fine folks at A2 have installed PageTemplate and RMagick for me. Of course, they had to put my site files on a different machine to do it. So now I can work on some nifty Ruby CGI stuff. Thanks!

A glance at REBOL/View

Let’s see, I threw a few links onto the main REBOL page, and also made a very basic peek at REBOL/View in 2004-12-26 REBOL Babysteps - 02 Getting Started With View . That’s about it, really.

Okay, I’ve converted everything back to WebMake again. Why? Oh, pretty much just a change of pace. ZenWeb is nifty and I highly recommend it, but I like to fiddle around with all sorts of tools as the whim strikes me.

Let’s celebrate part of this with a little bit of a new look for the site, some minor content updates, and … let’s see, what else? Oh, I know, let’s dig into the Wayback Machine to find every possible bit of archived coolnamehere news that I’ve ever posted. Looks like it isn’t all there, but I’ve salvaged what I could.

2025-09-11: the urge to archive has been with me for a while too, apparently
