Older blog entries for Eitch (starting at number 11)

Not a useful day, but it's ok. I didn't sleep after all since last night, so now (20:22) I will sleep... and some other time i will post a new entry with some informations about me and my projects. Now I simply can´t! I'm looking like a zumbi.

Ok, I admit... I'm addicted to coding in PHP... I work on Eitchdot every day, every hour that I am on the computer! When I'm not working on it, i'm reading the PHP3 Manual and testing different functions. I created a code describing my life these days, look:

while (Eitch == addicted) {
   wakeup("20:00");
   coding_php("20:01","08:00");
   swiming("08:01","09:00");
   take_a_bath("09:01");
   sleep("09:30");
}

That's my life... And by the way, i wrotte 4 CDs with my Anime Archives and now I have 3.5GB for installing the Linux distributions: Slackware, Conectiva, and Debian.And today I released the 0.3 version of the Eitchdot, that was code-revised and now have some more exciting functions. Well, now I have to continue coding...

Hey! long time no see! ok, i'm here with some great news. First, the university has stopped and my classes too, so i have much time left to do anything. Last week, studying PHP, i had an idea: write a news site with PHP & MySQL, like the sites PontoBR and Slashdot. So i began to create what i called 'Eitchdot', and when i noted that set of scripts could be util for someone, i released the code and created the project Eitchdot. Hehe, i realize that PHP is very good to work with HTML! And i'm still reading the C book that i took from the university's library... learning two languages in the same time isn't very easy :)

So, this was the news for today, and now i get connect every day at midnight (no classes rocks), and i will try to update this diary with the things i do for the open source community!

Hmmm... i'm not writting this thing every day, but it's ok. Don't writting means that i am not doing anything useful to the opensource communitty. Today i went to the ufs library and i take a book to begin C :) I'm really hungry for programming. But, only the destine will tell the results!

Spent all day on the beach house of a friend of mine. Lots of fun there, but since i didn't sleep last night, i will not do anything and sleep NOW! I can sleep for 24 hours if i could... :) Next weekend i will continue the studies of PHP e DocBook, and then, i will try to make CDs with my Anime Archives, download the CL5 and Slackware distributions, and install both of them in my computer.

These days i'm having some cool ideas on PontoBR, but i need to talk with bruder first, and appears that he is pretty busy these times.

Nothing util, just living my life. But tomorrow i will do much things on the beach :) Time passes... and i'm really needing a Hugo~$ ...

After a few days traveling, i'm back after all. I'm unhappy to see that the PontoBR only had two news in three days, when it usually have about 5-a-day when i'm here and not traveling... but that's the life, bruder moved to curitiba and stopped to post to PontoBR for a few weeks, i hope that he will come back posting things :)

Since i traveled, i didn't study things like PHP and DocBook, but i will terminate with these in a near future. I'm really needing a CD-RW to write my CDs with my Anime Archives, and finally put CL5 on my machine. I'm planning to buy another computer to have only Linux installed on it, and only for me (my brother uses computer too, Wind^h^h^h^h). I have some money, but i can't use it because i will travel to São Paulo on July. To make some money, i think i will go back to teach Linux on a company or something, or working for Conectiva S.A.... Only the future will tell me what would happen...

Ah! I'm accepting sugestions for what i write on the Revista do Linux Magazine, mail-me if you have some...

Very interstings things today... The Last days i didn't post the diary entry because i was busy, but now i will explain what i did the two last days.

First, i began to learn PHP and i learned the basics. I wrote a little news-site utilizing a MySQL database. There is a little problems in the submit form, but i'm working on it, and when i complete the source, i will release in my page.

Also, i began to read the DocBook HOWTO, but it's not mandatory right now since i don't have the necessary software :^)

Ok, i think this is all, but if i remember something, i'll post in the next entry because i'm soooooooo tired.... :((

Let me see... I playied soccer, had swim classes, had school... but i still don't have time to begin to learn PHP, but i will this week! right now i have to read a whole book, so i'll be fast writting to this diary! :)) i updated my page and i began to write others ways to realize that project that i said in the last entry. I think it is all!

Today i printed a tutorial who teaches the basics of Database WebSites using PHP, so i will start to study next week.

Right now, i'm about to begin the studies of the DocBook (i'll always use it in a near future), i printed the tutorial from DocBook HOWTO, that is reachable from the LDP Project.

I'm also making 'linux' projects to my school, and if these projects works, i will post it to the public with my personal notes. Phew, i'm starting to work......ugh?

PS: MERCYFUL FATE REALLY ROCKS ;)
