Day Four & Five
Day Four with a Chromebook was fun. I’ve been building a twitter client for ChromiumOS - to make Twitter a bit more accessible, instead of being a website.
Unfortunately, I couldn’t build it on the Chromebook itself. No IDE, see (although, I could change that!)
Day Five has been two lectures and a seminar. All in all great, except the wireless network keeps dropping out. I need to...
Day Two + Three
Day two of using a Chromebook went well. Two lectures. Pretty simple. Google Docs for notes, and again Terminal for IRC. Awesomes!
Day three was not good. I had to use my Mac, purely because the programming environment was BlueJ, a kiddy IDE for those learning Java. I couldn’t get it across to ChromeOS, no matter how hard I tried.
However, I’m looking into working with panels, so I...

Day One
Uno. This is Day 1 with a Chromebook. And it’s pretty awesome.
Used it in a lecture - Google Docs for notes, and using the Terminal to connect to the IRC (crosh > ssh > irssi). And in a seminar, however that was simply evaluating websites in W3C’s validator.
Easy
Tomorrow is going to be much harder. Java programming. Perhaps it’s not possible to code on a Chromebook?...
Living on ChromeOS
So today I’m starting my latest project.
Living on ChromeOS. For a week.
So, for a week, I will be making my “Chromebook” my main computer for a week. The reason? So I can get a better idea of what kind of Chrome Web App I should be attempting next week.
It’s quite fun. But I wouldn’t mind a little Twitter panel for tweets (idea?), or Spotify. Need Spotify!!
I hate the Internet.
Well, technically not true. I hate the internet connection here. It is evil. Pure evil. Thanks to a wonderful BT Home Hub v2.0.
So today I went into town and bought a Netgear N300 router with a modem. Like a boss.
And after a lot of setting up, and running back and forth with IP issues, it’s active.
Hooray!
So now we get 1.83Mbps instead of 0.2Mbps. And...
My routine tonight:
while(!$me->isTired()) {
$me->writeCode();
$me->drink($drink);
if (empty($drink)) {
$drink->refill('Pepsi Max');
}
}
To change your Facebook primary email address (i.e. add a new email address, change it to your primary address, and then delete the old email address) you have to enter in the same Facebook password four times.
WUT?

"facebooked"
I came across an interesting comment on thefacebook recently (actually, 28 minutes ago).
Ye, [NAME-HERE] facebooked you x
And I screamed.
Screamed.
Loudly.
Because this guy has just used the stupidest word in the universe. “facebooked”. Time to get out the other keyboard and slam down on the RAGE key.
Jesus.
The fact that he turned the word “facebook” into a verb....
