Java & Camera

July 31st, 2009

So, I’ve been doing the whole php programming thing for about 5 years. I started off in a beginners job, I studied digital design then went and told a company I was more interested in programming than anything else and they gave me a job. Through this whole process I still don’t have anything saying I am a developer. So to get that sorted out I am doing a Java course. I like the language, you can do more than just web sites with it, so I plan to get good at it. I want to look into the mobile apps mainly as they seem to be big at the moment but not going to limit myself to that.

Slowly getting a few things sorted out, I have work out a way of getting a camera, which involves a lot of nice people and a site where you don’t have to buy a product all at once. I still haven’t found the right site but once I find it I will post up a link.

Been trying to take more photos with what I got but my cell does not produce good photos and the camera I got from my brother just seems to give issues. I will have to glue the damn thing to a rock to make sure it is still enough to take a picture that does not blur. I have looked into the setting to see if there is something I have missed but still not doing it for me.

Think for yourself

IE6 The reason the web is not going anywhere fast. If you are running wordpress I highly recommend you install this great plugin. Shockingly Big IE6 Warning
I know its not always the users falt that they are still on IE6. There are a number of companys who manage thousands of desktops each day which run IE6 and why bother changing something that works. But at some point we will need to change. The new developments in HTML5 are too great to not take advantage of them.

Looking at finally get some sort of programming certificut, you know that thing programmers have. I dont have any yet, just worked my way up. Going to check out a java course tomorrow.

In other thoughts, figured out a cool little app to write. Not going to say anything about it till I have done some research but I think it will be great for security on the net.

One thing at a time

Hmm, so its been awhile since I upgraded my site, loving the latest wordpress. Been meaning to upgrade but was afraid of losing everything and have to waste time fixing the site. That is not the case luckily. it went very well and I have no complaints about the upgrade process.

on other news I came up with a funny website which I am currently building. It will still be sometime before it goes live but think it might make a buck or two and I’m writing it in cake so Will not be heavy development time.

I am still working on getting a camera and start shooting. things are going slow with that idea though. There have been some issues in my life that will slow most of my plans down. I have already registered a new account on deviant art for uploading my images.
