• Attending the “Apocalyptic Visions, the paintings of Alex Rubio and Graham Toms” which is being curated by my friend Joe, who coincidentally drafted the show synopsis. Haven’t been to an art opening in a while, so I’m looking forward to it. It’s at the Semmes Gallery in the Fine Art Building at the University of the Incarnate Word from 5:00pm - 8:00pm.


• Still studying Dreamweaver and CSS. Into the good stuff now and I expect to be complete in the next day or two. Then the fun work of transitioning sites from HTML to XML begins.


• My tag cloud was growing like an unkempt beard, so I shaved it by rate-limiting it to a couple of dozen tags. The large number of tags could also take quite a while to fetch, which slowed page rendering times. Ok, not a lot… but I really don’t like waiting that extra second. It’s much more tidy and neat looking now.

Added a tag cloud to my blog using some custom code from Tumblrtags. The code took all of 15 seconds to install and I even adjusted the font size to match the rest of my sidebar. Pretty slick. I’ve left the tag size calculation logarithmic for the time being, but I will probably adjust some those features when my list of tags grows.
