Tonight Windows Updated Me To IE7
Windows automatically updated my windows XP development box to Internet Explorer 7 tonight. This mean sthat the era for IE 6 development is over. I will try and keep support for what is there. But dedicated testing and support for Internet Explorer 6 on estrip is over. I will test everything with 7 this weekend.
Bunch of backend SQL updates should make some stuff faster. . . more to come.

Major Update
Now that it is all organized I can more efficiently work on it.
The site should be much faster when switching between journals. One of the problems before was the usersound player was loading the entire song on every journal load even if you didn't play it. So right now I have a button that loads the player when you want. That is what was causing the userpics to load slowly.
There was also tons of other stuff that got cleaned up. On the backend my new system allows me to have really efficient, highly commented code that then gets compressed into tiny chunks of javascript that you download.
If you notice any other problems message paul.

Compressing Javascript
Anyhow, I returned the restore backup button which records everything you are typing to a flash storage area on you comp so that if your browser crashes you should be able to click the restore backup button and continue where you left off writing - like it used to be. Wow, this turned out useful as I just left this page in the middle of writing the journal and it was all there when I got back.
The files are a lot smaller now when compressed. If you notice anything out of the ordinary, send me a post it.

Response to Nick Matteliano
Paul,
It has come to my attention that Bruce's letter to you is posted and it contains personal information (i.e. our last names). This is not directly in violation of your terms of service, however it alludes to what was posted and directly links us to it. I ask that you please remove the last names from this post or I will continue to pursue this matter to my fullest extent.
Thank you,
Nick
First of all what do you mean by "my fullest extent." Are you trying to say "to the fullest extent of the law" or are you threatening me?
Bruce's letter (e:news,929) contained no confidentiality statement. My mere mention of your name does not reveal any confidential personal information such as:
- Credit card numbers
- Financial account numbers
- Debit card numbers
- Access codes, security codes, or passwords
- Driver's license numbers
- State identification card numbers .
Its presence is not unlawful, physically harmful, threatening, abusive, harassing, or pornographic.
In fact it is not even my mention of your name but rather a duplication of your lawyer's mention of your name in a letter that was not marked as confidential and was sent to a public website.
The letter was put online as a response to my removal of (e:lilgo)'s journal at your bidding. It as the first and only time anything has ever been removed from the a users journal by an admin and thus required an explanation.
I cannot simply go around removing people's journals at the request of outside users without an explanation of what happened for the other users. Without it the site would lose it's credibility as a storage medium and the other journal authors would fear their own writing's being removed.
Frankly, I do not see what you are after considering estrip is a non-profit entity. What are you going to pursue exactly and who? Sarah - (e:lilho) - for going a little overboard writing about her tragic experiences being a part of your life? Me, for providing a free resource to the community where users can write about their feelings? Me, for removing the offensive material without hesitation the day you asked!? Artvoice, for hosting us? Google, for caching the journal entry without your or my permission. Verizon and Adelphia for bringing it to people's homes without your permission? Where does the madness end?
As an interesting side note, I would have probably taken it down if you hadn't threatened me again. If it turns out that the presence of the names is actually illegal I will have them removed. Until then it is going to stay.
Why even bother saying "thank you" after a sentence like "or I will continue to pursue this matter to my fullest extent. "
Please stop harassing me and my community.
No pretension of thanks,
Paul Visco

Server Update and Info
I purchased some more RAM for the server but it didn't come yet so I will have to make another trip over to artvoice soon. Now we will have a full 2GB of ECC 800mhz RIMM chips which should be enough for anything.
They ended up costing (Approximately US $194.96) on ebay. If anyone wants to donate it would be awesome. Just click the donate button above the top ten list and you can donate with paypal. This should be the last memory purchase for this server because that's the max it takes.
For some reason all of these little fruit flies lived inside the server but died. I am not sure what is unsustaining about a hot plastic.
There is still lots of space but I wouldn't mind upgrading he drives to some speedier ones. The ones in there are compusa specials.
The CPUS - all four of them seem fine - the spikes are something from the x windows programs that were running. The server doesn't usually have x windows running.
HEre is the server's new home
This is the artvoice internet pipeline and where the server used to live on the basement floor. I am so glad it lives upstairs now.
