Morning all.

@Fosco 'noon

@Fosco 'evening

hah

As you can see, if the world adopted the One True Timezone That Makes Sense, GMT+1, we'd all agree on it being afternoon.

As the wise says, in media stat virtus!

Fosco

It'd be weird if we were all on the same timezone.

@RebeccaChernoff Ahhh... well, pity that poor user :P

Tim Stone

yawns Hmm, somehow I forgot I had a meeting today...good thing I woke up anyway.

Yi Jiang

@TimStone Woken up by the ringing sound of unread notifications? :P

Tim Stone

2:27 PM

Surprisingly no, though that's been known to happen :P

badp

It's the sudden silence from the missing wowels

@TimStone Sounds like a feature request for CodingKitten!

Tim Stone

Hahah

badp

and just like pressing the big button on an alarm clocks only repeats the beeps again a few minutes later, CodingKitten should only stop as you write "jQuery is perfect and does all things"

@Josh [I] have reached the limit of 12 Closure votes per day. [I should] come back in 9 hours.

Josh

2:55 PM

@PopularDemand Send links, I will review

Fosco

Cold, tired, and wishing I were home.

Josh

Yeah it's a dreary, cold day here also

Popular Demand

@Josh Meh, I already closed all those tabs. Leave it for some other 10ker.

Josh

sounds good @PopularDemand

So I got a new request from a client today, maybe some of you have some ideas... the client wants me to build a graphical site map of their entire existing site so they know what content is on there and can plan for some updates

Why they don't just review it themselves is beyond me, but, they're a client. They don't know such logic...

;-)

Does anyone know of any programs which can spider a side and build a graphical sitemap showing all pages and what pages link to where?

Popular Demand

@Josh Sounds like a good project.

Josh

3:01 PM

interested @PopularDemand? :-) I'd rather be writing code

badp

@PopularDemand Bye

Popular Demand

@badp See ya! Wow, looks like you had some sort of epic debate early this morning (in my local time, which I know is not your local time).

I may have to scroll to the top of that later.

@Josh By "good project" I meant "writing such a program," not "searching for an existing version of such a program."

Josh

Oh

I thought you meant building one by hand

Agreed, writing such a program would be a fun challenge. Probably outside their budget however ;-)

badp

@Josh You want to use GraphViz

@PopularDemand I thought it was you coming back in 9 hours ;P

Josh

@badp yeah, if I build it by hand, I probably will.

Popular Demand

3:05 PM

@badp Yeah, I played along with that for the first two words and then gave up.

Josh

it doesn't build them automatically does it @radp?

badp

Fosco

@josh maybe this: powermapper.com/products/mapper/ads/…

badp

@Josh the image is the output of graphviz.org/Gallery/twopi/twopi2.gv.txt

Josh

@badp crazyness

3:06 PM

@Josh First it defines the circles, then it connects them. :)

Josh

@Fosco looks great, thanks! Have you used it before or did Google reccomend it? ;-)

Uh oh, I seem to have a serious problem: I am clicking "don't click this" links posted by @RebeccaChernoff!!! Someone please stop me!!!!!

There's one for you. See my comment.

Meh. Thanks @Josh for making me notice the pinned message. ):

Josh

@PopularDemand voting to close even though I'm only 75% sure it's a dup

@RebeccaChernoff pinned? I see it as starred:

19 hours ago, by Rebecca Chernoff

Don't click this link. DO NOT CLICK THIS

Rebecca Chernoff

3:15 PM

Yeah, that's starred, but there is a (different) pinned message.

Tyler Chacha

@Josh She means that you talking about that made her noticed the Schnapple!

Josh

I was also thoroughly disappointed in the lack of evilness in those links @Rebecca. You should work on that...

@TylerChacha I ignored that meaningless comment. It blended in with the starred LOLs and Oys

Michael Mrozek

The "who pinned what" feature in the history is completely redundant; I know who pinned the post just based on how useless it is

Josh

HAHA

True

Rebecca Chernoff

There's a "who pinned what"?

Tyler Chacha

3:18 PM

@MichaelMrozek I figure I could post 100 messages that are all really useful, or I can post 10,0000 messages that all individually have very little usefulness, and the sheer quantity will mean that I will have provided the same amount of usefulness as the first option.

You can see which option I'm going for here

Rebecca Chernoff

...or...you could post 0 messages...

(:

Josh

Where's the fun in that?

@TylerChacha has about as much hope of posting 0 messages as you or I do @Rebecca (-:
