Well, we’re almost two weeks after things broke over at SMF and things have begun to calm down and the healing has begun for many. While I personally don’t agree with everything going on, I am very glad to see things happening and think it’s very positive for the project.

So in January of 2010…

With the latest screw up on my HTC Magic from Rogers leaving 911 calls unavailable, Rogers disabled data on the phones until its users could patch the ROM to include the 911 fix and a little surprise.

Over seven years ago my friend Joseph Fung and I decided the web needed an alternative to the leading PHP forum package out there. We created a PHP fork of perl based YaBB and after working with what we called YaBB SE for a bit, we re-branded as SMF, or Simple Machines Forums, along with a new core of code written by a developer who called himself [Unknown]. After seven years…it’s crumbling…but why?

We’ve been in this house now for almost three years I believe now and as far as I can recall, we’ve never had a “normal” neighbour to one side of us. The latest couple to move in there are possibly the craziest ones yet with the wife taking the cake.
