Favicon, Python

without comments

Worked out how to read the raw Apache logs for this site, and found some inter­est­ing errors. Oops! Cleaned up some broken links, learnt how to do favicon.ico images for the URL and when adding to history/favourites. Not too hard, really.

Time to learn a new pro­gram­ming lan­guage. PERL or Python? I decided on Python.

Old Browsers

without comments

Even­ing fun and nos­tal­gia: Deja Vu dis­plays today’s web sites through the eyes of old browsers. The first browser I installed was NCSA Mosaic on a Mac. What frus­trated me most was that forms were not imple­men­ted on the Mac, but were for Win­dows 3.11. If only I had grasped the fuller pic­ture then, I may have become an inter­net mil­lion­aire (and pauper!)
