Since most of you probably aren’t going to fetch the SVN version of my iCalendar parser - known as SG_iCalReader - I’ve made a simple alpha-page.
It allows you to type in the URL of a iCalendar feed, and it will display the contents of the feed in a nice week-view calendar.
SG iCalReader Tryout (http://sevengoslings.net/try_ical/)
Note: The SG iCalReader Tryout is designed for Mac OS X and Safari. All other combinations might have graphic glitches or worse.

I’ve got myself a new project. A iCalendar parser.
Right now it’s getting close to some initial testing. Which is why I need you!
Do you have any need for parsing iCalendar files/feeds? If you do, I’d like to bounce some ideas on how to create the API.
Also - I’m looking for testing-material. If you have a [...]

I recently did a small topic on md5 salts in my latest project, the
Danish podcast Tech3. The other presenters
got me thinking: Is it really necessary for ordinary people to add
salts to their MD5 hashes?
Well, is it?
Yes.
The Power Of Example
At least that’s my opinion. Lets take a very simple example here: I,
for some reason or the [...]

Terry Chay apparently decided that his blog was short of visitors and he was short of lady-pictures to lure people in. Luckily for Chay he has a trick up his sleeve. It’s called Ruby and does by no means include coding with it.
No, his latest post Why PHP triumphs over Ruby is the triumphant return [...]

A few weeks has passed since I announced I was going to create a small webapp to mimic Jim Whimpey’s All My Shit. In those weeks quite a bit, yet terribly little has happend.

Jim made a fancy-pansy page that collects everything him. I named it All My Shit and said that “Everybody Will Be Doing This Soon”
And Yes. Everybody _Will_ Be Doing This Soon (TM). And you know why? Because I’m gonna help everybody do it.
I’m creating a small web-app that will enable people to create their [...]

I’ve spent a lot of time this weekend on added features to Pundit. Most noticeable is the Solr integration. For all you guys who don’t know what Solr is, its a search-thingy which is really fast and just utterly cool. Go read up on it at their site.

I found myself needing to fork out a backgroud process from within PHP so that processes that take longer than I ever want them to take (read: 10 seconds) can finish in the background.
Normally in your shell you will write something like command &, but this doesnt work with neither exec, shell_exec or system. After [...]

I have been spending some time doing speed-optimization of Pundit and the code I have made for UniteIT so far. My tool: Zend Studio and its “Profile URL” function. (find it under Tools -> Profile URL. You need the Zend Studio Server extention loaded on you apache process)
I still have some way to go [...]

New design
First of all, I have redesigned this site to this clean look. Clean being keyword here, I removed pretty much everything. That includes Live-Comments - but they will be back whenever I get the time… I used the motto “If you dont got it, dont show it” and then removed everything - nice, huh? [...]
