Might as well bookend this thing
Last post was the day Obama won and this one is a picture from the day I got to witness the inauguration. I'm hoping revamp the blog a bit soon, linking to some different projects that I've been working on.
Big news is that I just finished up a site called addnetflix that allows twitter users to direct message 'addnetflix' to add movies to their queue (and specify their position). It gave me a chance to try out the codeigniter PHP framework as well as toying around with Open Authentication and the Netflix API. If you have Netflix, it's almost worth joining twitter to give it a try. Once you have both, check out addnetflix.moltbedesigns.com and start adding movies. I used it twice yesterday during lunch!
The takeaway: OAuth is a bitch, but there are some good libraries out there that make it a little less of a bitch. I'm talking mostly about a little one called OAuthSimple, which I can't recommend enough as it saved my ass towards the end.
