Another interesting day...

Today came and went fast. For a change, I was a bit earlier at the train station than the train, instead of a couple of seconds before the time. I am amazed, that I haven't actually missed it for a long time. The daily jogging also helps.

The morning at the office I spent time on fixing some bugs and upgrading some sections of a highly customised website. The afternoon was hectic chaos, during the late afternoon, somebody showed up to run some SQL server performance tests, while I was busy making a website accessible to search enige spiders, since JavaScript menus just don't work so well. The not much used noscript tag does wonders... :)

One important thing I found out about the new MSN Desktopn search: Do not use the tabbed browsing function. Internet Exploiter (Explorer) is tricked into showing different websites in the same area, and the entire browser goes totally unstable after a while and freezes. This is hopefully only because the tabs are add-ons. This kind of unstable software is what Microsoft is so well known for. On the topic, here is a joke:
How many Microsoft Programmers are required to screw in a new light bulb?
None, darkness is declared as the new standard.

I have also read in the IE Blog that the select statement is finally going to get the CSS sections that everything else had. This is years overdue and was already well know in IE4 (1998!!!).

After returning home by train, a client of my home business came. She took quite a while to pick what she wanted. Since I am renting out costumes, there is always a size issue or some people don't like certain things. After trying on many costumes, she decided on one and rented that for several days. Reminder to self: Update website prices to indicate multiple day rates.

The rest of the evening so far has continued with cooking and playing Total Annihilation. I cannot wait until the inofficial sequel is available called Supreme Commander.
