So Begins a New Chapter

Friday, January 18. 2008

I'd like to announce that today I parted company with my employers Coolpink to the satisfaction (and probably benefit) of both sides.

To answer the first three questions: Yes, I am fine. Yes, they are paying me my notice period so I won't starve. And yes, I need a new job! I'll put up a coherent post on me and my skills soon.

Good luck girl. Loads of hugs and I’m sure you’ll land on your feet. Anything we can do to help etc… etc…

If it’s anything like the Asus that I have, then it should b e relatively easy to put Ubuntu on it, like I’ve done with m ine. Put installer on to a bootable USB stick…

I’m so glad that you settled into telecommuting so well. As you know, I’ve been working for myself and/or telecommuting for the last five years.

ok, I’ve been experimenting with this, ‘switch’ing on the RE QUEST_METHOD to implement post, get, put, delete for a db r esource; so far I’ve not had problems using $SERVER[‘QUERY STRING’] and parse_str()... what problems do you anticipate? (I’m not sending files, everything fits in the string [...]
