Talk is cheap, show me the code
Enough IPDN already, please. Let’s look into something else. I, obviously, didn’t have much to talk about. Brain is already exploited for daily task. WTF, hahahha. Actually it’s kinda slow lately. It’s hard to get into complex mode. So things tends to go more into the simple sides recently. Or that’s what suppose to happen. Well, back to blog. I finally got the traction (Only God knows how I am running out of interesting readings) to fill the blank. After reading planet.terasi.net (thanks to William’s del.icio.us link), I become aware of things like mod_musicindex. It’s an Apache mod that indexes music files, and serve it in a css-ified meta-aware page. just like and index page but flavored with custom css and music infos. mod_musicindex supports Vorbis, mp3, FLAC, and err one more format. Though search feature is very very slow (I guess that’s the most you can possibly get form flat file index), the index page is actually amusing. It’s not a great alternative to daap protocol but still, indeed, a good stuff.
Uh oh, and I keep reading meebo as moodle. Moodle? No, it’s Meebo here. For this particular link, I don’t know why it got into del.icio.us. I mean, it talks about how webapps doesn’t do right for it costs a lot of CPU and memory, which apparently and old news :p. Actually, the article started nice and insightful. But I just can’t agree to his conclusion. No, using web apps is not bad. What can be bad is the way you use it. But, to think positively, I think the writer was stressing on how webapps should not try to blindy obsoleting desktop apps. Well, not at the moment perhaps. not Within the state where simple (but sometimes useful and straight forward) functionality sometimes may consume a fortune of resource (for somes’ mileage)
