In keeping with trying to catch up on all of the C:SI stuff I’ve been neglecting recently, I completely rewrote the Weekly Stats page so that it’s less demanding on our servers while allowing a great deal of flexibility on how it can evolve over time. As you can see from the snapshot, there’s not [...]
As you can see from the snapshot above, I’ve put up a new page on the official C:SI website that simply displays the results of the last 25 duels. If you want to see more than 25 duels, you can still choose to view the C:SI Twitter Feed, but I think I actually prefer to [...]
UPDATE: I have applied to Twitter to have C:SI white-listed so that they are not subject to the API Request limit, and was just now notified that the request was approved and will be in effect within 48 hours. Every once in a while I guess I just get a bizarre notion in my head [...]

Just felt like posting this, for no particular reason other than the fact that I like the way my eyes appear to be glowing in this one, which is a pretty darned cool effect
My day job entails a great deal of web/ajax work, so I subscribe to a great many blogs on such topics. Every once in a while, I see a post that is not only interesting in the context of my "billable" work, but could possibly have interesting implications for my C:SI work as well. Today’s [...]
I just read the most exciting news by Frans Charming on SLOG about a discussion during the Mono Office Hour regarding interactive user interfaces on a single prim face. Essentially, scripters in Second Life have long wanted to be able to tell exactly where an object has been clicked, rather than simply which object was [...]
Last month, when I posted an article on realXtend joining with OpenSim, I mentioned that one of the things that got me truly excited while reading the proposed feature list was the ability to directly script the avatar skeleton.
