Stayed up late last night working on updating the Spiff Webcams page using some of the new technology I picked up at work. It's now built using Handlebars js, a templating system that uses JSON data to build pages. There is some tweaking to do for mobile but it's pretty cool so far except for my cheesy artistic skills. Half way through updating the Webcams page, I came up with another idea and spent most of today working on updating Johnny Dressup. Now whenever you change Johnny's outfit your ensemble is saved to the backend so other visitors can see what you came up with. I have a couple of other ideas for it but the code could really use a refactor to clean up a bunch of the older code still in there.
Finally got around to starting up a Ruby server. Now to figure out how to put all those tutorials to work and make a blog. I have an idea for a page using Handlebars too. Just have to find the time. I was able to hack the DOH! Network Squeezebox player the other day and I thiink that inspired me to do some webpage stuff.
I saw my Steam copy of 'Batman: Arkham City' was auto-updating to the 'Game of the Year Edition' today. Sweet! The GOTY Edition features the Catwoman, Nightwing, Robin Bundle Packs, Harley Quinn's Revenge, Challenge Map Pack and Arkham City Skins Pack. For more details, check out the Batman: Arkham City - Game of the Year Edition page on SteamPowered.com.
I like all the new stuff I am learning at work but it really ticks me off when I come home and try to do a simple update to something on the site and three pages stop working. Two of which I didn't do anything on. And rolling back to the previous version doesn't fix it. Stupid code.
