I just found this site today and I'm impressed by it so far. The journals section reminds me of the daylogs on [E2], but neater.

Perl related stuff:
Stayed up late last night implementing one of Jamie's ideas. I recently got him hooked on Linux via The Gimp, and anyway, he asked me if it was possible to get Visual Basic for Linux. (...) We talked for a while about this, with some possible solutions, and then we started coding a little cellular life program in Perl. It was quite interesting to do, and as I layed in my bed I realised that we had programmed a Tamagotchi-like game that requires no user-input :) Next step is allowing multiple cells to exist in the system and making them interact.

I haven't done much coding for my mod_perl project this week. I've mostly been reading perldocs and other such useful information though, so it hasn't been a complete loss by any means... I shall try to get more done this weekend though - last weekend I was quite productive as I stayed up late and coded until I could no longer keep my eyes open (caffeine deficient...). I might try that again this weekend...
