As much as I loved my Chocolate Ocean theme that I developed a few months ago…
… I thought it was time for a change. So I changed.
My theme that is.

Deciding between the retro and turbo encabulator
Of all the funny things that could have happened…
Wouldn’t you know it? I found myself in need of an encabulator. And not just any encabulator either.

Using Picasa on Ubuntu
A few days ago I was working on some image stuff when I ran across a built-in Linux file system utility that allows you to sync images with Picasa. I used it to upload a few images then went about my other business.
A few days later I tried to find it again and was completely without luck. Not to be left unable to post pictures, I quickly began searching for a Linux Picasa app that would let me push my images to Picasa. At first all I found were pages that said “Google does not officially support Picasa on Linux”. Then I found something cool.
I am not sure where I got this link from but I found a Picasa for Linux app provided by Google. How cool is that? Now I can manage my Picasa photos right from my Linux desktop.
Now all I need is a way to sync my iPhone to iTunes on Linux without using Wine and I am golden. Anyone got any links?
I might just make it as a ZCE
Today I took a sample Zend Certified Engineer test. I have wanted, for some time now, to get my ZCE and as part of an ongoing educational track set up at work, I was able to take the ZCE training course offered by PHP|Architect.
Part of the training course that I bought into was 10 free sample exams that I could take at me leisure prior to taking the actual exam. Wanting to move a little closer to being certified, I agreed with my coworker who decided it was time to take our first practice test.
The results?
Not too bad, eh? I am planning on taking several more of these (if not all 10) before taking the exam. I would say that I should be a ZCE before the end of summer. More than likely though I will be certified by the end of spring.
Let’s just see. And let’s hope that I don’t get too full of myself and end up borking the test altogether.
