Robin,
In response to [inlink]robin,179[/inlink] .

A lot of (e:people) seem to have anomosity towards forever elmwood, especially when it involves the Elmwood Art Festival or the Coop. Maybe some of the rest of you know more about it? I missed the 80's on elmwood, so I can't really say how it was? How about the rest of you?

Wow, we have so many new people here. We should plan some sort of social event. Trisha and I have been talking about a scavenger hunt with journal based clues, etc for couple months. Anybody else have an idea? It could be really fun to organize something like that with clues online and then al around the elmwood area.

I am also going to start prgramming the restaurant review section. I just need some inspiration from the chicken wing fairy, so I am heading off to Anchor to get started.

I was working on some stuff for the site when I logged out and realized the banners were not working when logged out. It happend after I fixed the banner code this morning. So that whole episode led to a 15 minute down-time period at around 8 o'clocl. I appologize to any of you who were logged on at that point. It's kind of emabrassing after we promoted so hard today, I hope no one went and found it closed.

Some of the (e:peeps) came over tonight for a corn and shrimp roast. We had some problems with the lighter fluid/coal situation and ended up with some weirdly toxic veggies. Everything else was delicious.

Maidencateyes, also added a banner, it's of a flower at Buffalo state. Kind of pink and purplish.

More people signed up. I think there are probably even more coming in the near future, as everyone is not as wired as me. Some people actually have to go home to use the internet. Must be a tragic life, I can't imagine anymore. Oh wait, I can imagine, that is what camping is like, lol.

Little did Holly and I know
that we actually already bought windows XP. Tina alerted me that As a
UB student we get free copies of Office XP Pro. Well free as in we
already paid for it with our student technology fee. So we headed out
today and got our copies. It only cost 3.00 for the CD and I got a copy
of Office 2003 Pro as well. What else am I paying for and don't know
about?

I am going to change all of the in journal sound player functions over to the flash plugin. I am so sick of the different system checks. Everytime I change something, I need to test it in Netscape (PC and Mac), safari, IE (PC and Mac), konquerer (linux), Mozilla Firefox (PC, Mac, and Linux.) There are always problems with different plugins for sound media.

Plus I really think that people don't always have the quicktime or equivalent plugin due to its bigger download size while the flash player seems to be everywhere and mostly preinstalled. Any feelings about this from the (e:peeps)? I know its not open source, but neither is quicktime and both are free.
