Elegant Chaos

If you're noticing that some content on www.elegantchaos.com keeps appearing and disappearing mysteriously, it's because I'm switching back and forth between the original version and the new Drupal 6 version which is running on an old (and slow) server.

Apologies if this confuses your rss news reader! Eventually I'll finalise the update and switch over permanently to Drupal 6, at which point it will go onto my proper server and things will stop changing!

As an experiment, I've ported this site across to Drupal 6.

The new version of the site is running on a test server at the moment, so you might notice a bit of a drop in performance, and one or two old links may be missing since I've not bothered to copy the old static content over yet.

Hopefully though, the basic stuff will work. I'm also hoping that moving to Drupal 6 will allow me to re-enable comments, and to add various other bits of functionality.

If you notice anything that seems to have gone badly astray, give me a yell!

I've got a number of projects on the go at the moment, but most of them aren't really ready for prime-time.

I do have one small Mac OS X project that I would like to get some feedback on.

It's called Replicator (at the moment), and it is a simple utility intended to give the Finder a "Create Document…" menu that allows you to right-click in any folder and make a new file of a given type.

You can find the details here, and download a free beta copy to test. And find bugs. And, hopefully, give me some feedback about what I've done wrong and how to do it better.
