Hi Paul,

Thanks for the comments. The screenshot shown is from one of the new sample themes that ship with the product. I probably won't use that on the website but it will be available for use by customers. I may provide a link to the sample themes from the main pxn8.com landing page.

Re: S3 + Subversion

walter — Sun, 08 Oct 2006 07:10:32 -0000

Paul,

Have you seen JungleDisk ?
It setups a webdav server on your local machine so you can drag and drop files for backup.
I'm kicking the tyres on S3 to see if I can make it work with subversion.

the webdav port is http://localhost:2667 - I'm not sure if subversion works with webdav but if it does then I'm sorted.

Will let you know how I get on.

check out eyspot.com - a pretty good video editor.
Ben I'd like to get a better idea of why you prefer pixoh to pxn8.

An interesting read.

David was on the judging panel at Under-The-Radar in June. No - he didn't offer me wads of money but he was a really nice guy.

Re: Breakfast with Sam Sethi

> This is something for Web2Ireland to be proud of as news of Harrington giving Sam the boot was broken here first and then posted around the globe.

I think web2Ireland has plenty more to be proud of - the growing list of internet startups which web2ireland has been profiling and promoting to date. Let's not forget what the original purpose of this site is: to identify and promote Irish startups in the Web2.0 space.

> it was, by his own admission, Mr. Arrington’s worst day ever, so that’s something else to be proud of.

web2ireland's purpose is to promote and raise the profile of startups, not to tear down reputations. Whatever your own feelings are towards Mike Arrington, a group blog is not the place to post them.

Re: Otto’s Creative Catering – One of our top 5 meals of all time

walter — Mon, 12 Sep 2005 03:43:01 -0000

Conor,
Got to agree. Otto's is amazing. We've only been there twice - been meaning to go more often. The first time we went we were both (the wife and I) struggling by the end of the main course and dessert was yet to come. Otto's wife suggested we go for a walk down on the beach and that dessert would be ready when we got back.
The breakfast the next morning was amazing - It's a 3 course meal in itself - I couldn't eat anything for the rest of the day.
Don't get Otto started on the subject of smokehouses and German/EU beauracracy.
I'd definitely recommend a B&B stay for the breakfast alone.

Thanks Conor,

The interview was back in january. Reading it now makes me cringe ( Oh how much I've grown in the past 2 months ). 'obnoxious' must have been word-of-the-day when I did the interview.

If only I could afford to hire him as an advisor ;-)

Yeah, you couldn't even buy it in the shops (not that I would want to buy it you understand). The one good thing in that show was AMS revamp of the website. Seeing the before-and-after websites, you have to admit he's not got a bad eye for webdesign.

I should clarify: he obviously didn't fire up emacs and start hacking CSS. He pointed and made surly remarks, but (imho) his comments were spot on.

I think he'd love to have fired all three of them.
