Did you see Casino Royale? Sebastien Foucan running over the roof tops with our new Bond Daniel Craig – that discipline is called Free Running, actually “invented” by Foucan.

A new JavaScript jewel: RUZEE.LayoutManager lets you build web applications that have the style of a desktop application. You don’t need any JavaScript knowledge to use it. Just include the script, add some CSS class definitions to your HTML source … Continued

I don’t know if you ever heard about Telligent’s Community Server. It’s a platform for building blogs, forums, etc. mainly focused on enterprise intranets. The company has a pretty strong relation to Microsoft, actually loads of employees are Ex-Microsofters. And, Microsoft uses the Community Server for their msdn blogs.

So what? Well, I haven’t had look in my Apache logs for quite some time – today I took a peek. And I found lots of similar referer URLs there, ending with “/ControlPanel/Blogs/SkinOptions.aspx”, where the top one referer of that kind came from… yeah: blogs.msdn.com! So my guess was that Community Server somehow includes RUZEE.Borders.

And I found a little more proof on that: Mark (Voermans?) new blog is a Community Server based blog that uses a RUZEE.Borders based theme.

Does anybody know more details? Can anyone confirm that the RUZEE.Borders theme is bundled with Community Server?

I’ve written a Ruby script that does all the things required to update your Gentoo kernel to the latest version – no need to genkernel, emerge, or grub-edit anything. You got a new version of the Linux kernel in /usr/portage? … Continued

ruzee.com is currently hosted at my home, in my small computer and visitors room, using a DSL connection. Until you as one of my visitors reach my site, all the data has to go through a DSL modem/splitter, a NAT/Firewall, a 4-port switch, and finally the server itself. Loads of components that, well, might crash, get disconnected, etc.

But, fortunately Montastic exists. It frequently checks your servers for their availability. It does that approximately every 15 minutes – so you won’t get real-time data, but hey it’s free! If something is not o.k. (or working again), Montastic sends you an e-mail.

Version 0.15 had some trouble in IE where it let the content of a bordered element jumped when using “onhovered” elements. That even happend on my page – cheers Russ for the bug report.

The new version 0.16 fixes that. It was an issue with the relative positioning that RUZEE.Borders use since version 0.14. Peekaboo!

The new version also got some major refactorings. Most of the methods are private now – please tell me when something you’ve used previously is no longer public. Due to the refactorings I’ve managed to reduce the size of RUZEE.Borders by approx. 700 bytes.
