19:38 < ddysart > in the backchannel you slilly-billy
19:38 < ddysart > wham!
19:39 < tronathan > does web414 need background music? like masterpiece theatre?
19:39 < jennaddenda > hello all
19:39 < rohdesign > how about Limbik Frequencies?
19:40 < knellotron > how about Swiss folk music?
19:40 < jennaddenda > @rohdesign TOTALLY!
19:40 < brennan > background music? yes. heck yeah!
19:40 < knellotron > background music would cripple the wikibot's audio, however.
19:41 < tronathan > not with enough bandwidth!
19:41 < brennan > i was just wondering if it would hurt that wikibot's ability to hear the voices
19:41 < tronathan > i actually pointed it out because as a web viewer, i thought it would help my experience of the 'show'
19:42 < knellotron > james is definitely sugared tonight.
19:42 < jennaddenda > omg... the cookie monster is in effect
19:43 < Ashe > someone forgot to give james his riddilin, i think?
19:43 < toddclaus > me want cookie!
19:43 < brennan > Ashe: ya think?!
19:43 < Ashe > lil bit, yeah
19:43 < brennan > i would like a cookie though
19:43 < Ashe > its ok, i have the blow dart gun ready
19:43 < jennaddenda > @ashe LMAO
19:43 < jennaddenda > can I "borrow" your dart gun?
19:44 < ddysart > james will bogart any cookie like item at a gathering like this
19:44 < ddysart > He ate almost all my rice krispie treats at the potluck
19:44 < Ashe > jenn - you can borrow it, yes
19:44 < Ashe > :O
19:44 < tronathan > those were amazing btw
19:45 < ddysart > thanks
19:45 < Ashe > i think derek needs to treat web414 to some rice krispies
19:45 < Ashe > JUST SAYING
19:45 < ddysart > maybe I will
19:46 < ddysart > they were made with coco pebble instead of rice krispie
19:46 < tronathan > brilliant
19:46 < ddysart > and strawberry marshmellows
19:46 < brennan > i have as many questions as there are cookies remaining...
19:46 < tronathan > I want to get together with someone and hack out a web service to consume ustream tonight
19:46 < brennan > potluck? when?
19:46 < Ashe > whoa
19:46 < Ashe > sounds like sugar coma
19:47 < tronathan > yaaay cooking
19:47 < ddysart > become a pro member and you get awesome benefits like potlucks
19:47 < jennaddenda > with super-tasty treats
19:47 < Ashe > my husband has also made me a slave to his web development needs ><
19:47 < Ashe > laaaaame
19:47 < tronathan > actually anyone can come to those and its actually encouraged for non-members to crash the partty
19:47 < brennan > tronathan: consume uStream?
19:47 < tronathan > watershed's api
19:47 < ddysart > you do more than cook though, right?
19:47 < tronathan > watershed = ustream
19:48 < tronathan > its real simplea\
19:48 < Ashe > im also the bread winner
19:48 < Ashe > i do all the work, bitches
19:48 < tronathan > all we need is to make a drupal node after a clip is recorded
19:48 < jennaddenda > ASHE IS TEH SHIZNIT
19:48 < Ashe > thats right
19:48 < tronathan > and after a clip is recorded, the server invokes a soap endpoint
19:48 < tronathan > and passes the ID
19:48 < Ashe > and planning 8000 *camps
19:48 < Ashe > these are things i do
19:48 < tronathan > so we need to capture ustream's id.. from there i can make the node etc
19:49 < tronathan > adnd we pretty much need it tonight.
19:49 < tronathan > or something that solves the problem in a different way
19:49 < jennaddenda > the wikibot is about to be reborn
19:49 < jennaddenda > wanna be a midwife?
19:49 < tronathan > how much will it cost to have her feng shui my social network?
19:49 < toddclaus > rhodesign is working on an awesome sketch at the moment
19:49 < ddysart > we have the technology - we can rebuild it
19:49 < tronathan > i cant et all the parts to work together by myself
19:49 < tronathan > get
19:50 < ddysart > on an iPod touch, no less. He must be out of his element w/o a Moleskin
19:50 < knellotron > how about ustream's RSS feed? too simple?
19:50 < tronathan > good idea
19:51 < tronathan > watch the rss stream and create nodes as soon as they appear.. kinda latent but simple
19:51 < ddysart > keed api?
19:51 < ddysart > feed api?
19:51 < toddclaus > he has the iPod in a black leather case though channeling Moleskine
19:51 < tronathan > idk if watershed has authenticated rss feeds for its content
19:51 < tronathan > we're using watershed with private/secure channels
19:52 < toddclaus > sketch notes 2.0 on a 1G iPod touch
19:54 < toddclaus > looking more and more like @agartka by the minute
19:55 < brennan > it is pretty easy? or does her baking get Brian to do all the work? :)
19:55 < jennaddenda > @brennan you wanna get beat up after the show, don't you?
19:56 < knellotron > that's not the logo.
19:56 < tronathan > i dont see any way to get RSS out of watershed
19:56 < Ashe > FUNemployed
19:57 < brennan > jennaddenda: what? she said she pays him to do all the design work with her baking. wish i could pay for stuff with baking.
19:57 < tronathan > someone poke kev
19:57 < tronathan > i just IM'd him
19:57 < brennan > tronathan: i assume you want php stuff...
19:57 < ddysart > yeah, he's got a computer in his lap, but I don't think he's logged into IM on it.
19:57 < brennan > tronathan: cuz i do work in another language
19:58 < brennan > tronathan: i pulled out my C books the other day... thinking i could create C libs to do some heavy lifting
19:59 < brennan > kevron is working on getting into irc...
19:59 < brennan > installing stuff...
19:59 < tronathan > mibbit.com
20:00 < tronathan > brennan: yup, php
20:00 < toddclaus > URL for the @agartka sketchnote comming soon
20:00 < tronathan > but i think you like, include a soap library, then write a class with the same method names as the wsdl
20:00 < tronathan > i dont think its really that bad, and we dont have to do ANY validation
20:00 < tronathan > just say "yep, im here" and then gobble the id
20:01 < tronathan > but if watershed does RSS, that's probably sufficient.
20:01 < tronathan > but i dont think it does
20:02 < brennan > after 8pm... poop
20:02 < ddysart > rohdesign's sketch done on his ipod touch http://twitpic.com/75sox
20:02 < tronathan > whats the name of that screensaver?
20:02 < tronathan > dude that means we have 2 hours to write a soap web service for watershed before 10pm!
20:02 < rohdesign > htttp://10.100.2.246:8000 <-- the Brushes app on my iPod touch has a little web server on it -- go to that address on the local WiFi network to see it running
20:02 < ddysart > hit my address, since that 10. address is hosted on his touch.
20:02 < rohdesign > Sorry: htttp://10.100.2.246:8080
20:03 < rohdesign > one more try: http://10.100.2.246:8080
20:04 < ddysart > let's stress test the mini web server on his touch
20:04 < jennaddenda > I'm gonna have "These Eyes" stuck in my head for the rest of the night
20:05 < Ashe > i think im going to start calling matty stumpy
20:06 < Ashe > when he holds his hands where you cant see his fingers it looks like he lost them in the war
20:06 < ddysart > ashe: TMI
20:06 < Ashe > whoa
20:06 < Ashe > derek!
20:06 < ddysart > oh, his fingers
20:06 < Ashe > that kind of jokes calls for you giving me some rice krispy treates
20:06 < Ashe > yeah
20:06 < Ashe > YEAH
20:06 < Ashe > :shakes her head::
20:06 * ddysart shakes fist
20:07 < Ashe > pfft
20:07 < brennan > did i earn a cookie?
20:07 < Ashe > NO COOKIE FOR YOU
20:08 < hypnagogic > Brennan, I'll get the cookies, and definitely share one with you
20:08 < hypnagogic > no worries I promise
20:08 < hypnagogic > It's gabe who will pay for not remembering the Cookie Promise, which the Cookie Monster will never forget, not today, not ever
20:09 < hypnagogic > If I don't get my cookie today, I charge interest in fries
20:09 < jennaddenda > omg
20:31 < ddysart > dumb question - who else was on that video besides Laporte and Arrington?
20:32 < brennan > and... we are back!
20:34 < jennaddenda > I love non-apology apologies... I'm embarrassingly good at them
20:34 < jennaddenda > awww... @jDavid
20:34 < jennaddenda > WE LURV YOU
20:35 < knellotron > pete's been doing the htmls wrong all these years.
20:40 < brennan > Arlen loves to laugh
20:41 < brennan > HTML5 is gonna be great...
20:44 < heygabe > tronathn bringing the microsoft love.
20:54 < rohdesign > Where is my ITALIC?!
20:54 < ddysart > em em
20:55 < ddysart > I want to know more about Gabe's wiimote controlling a mac
20:56 < heygabe_ > sweet, aint it?
20:56 < ddysart > very
20:56 < brennan > we should rename Web414 to Jazz in the Web for the Summer
20:58 < brennan > enough with HTML5. let's talk about that Wii-mote...
20:58 < brennan > Wii-mote... Wii-mote... Wii-mote...
20:59 < heygabe_ > darwiinRemote
21:00 < heygabe_ > http://sourceforge.net/projects/darwiin-remote/
21:01 < brennan > heygabe_: nice, is it easy to set up on a Mac?
21:01 < ddysart > He didn't cover
21:02 < ddysart > I think pete got scared he couldn't keep Perl in his script tags
21:03 < heygabe_ > I used "blink" to great comic effect at work the other day.
21:03 < heygabe_ > I gave my designer high-five.
21:04 < brennan >
21:07 < brennan > the race is on... will HTML5 spec be final before Perl6? :)
21:07 < brennan > Curtis said that he thinks Arlen is a strong speaker
21:08 < brennan > I think Arlen should produce screencast tutorials... take people through web technologies and possibly other stuff.
21:09 < brennan > i seem to be the only one active in here
21:10 < workingwriter > I think people are just mesmerized by Arlen's magic.
21:18 < brennan > JavaFX example to do image roll overs... seriously lame: http://javafx.com/samples/ImageRollover/index.html
21:18 < brennan > HTML5 destroys JavaFX and Flash.
21:23 < brennan > IE6 on a Mac. I feel dirty.
21:38 < workingwriter > Night gang, it's been fun eavesdropping. See y'all (very) soon.
And so concludes another unsanctioned Web414 IRC Backchannel...
