A few years ago I was in my Boss’ office in Interactve Services. He was showing me something on his computer, and I saw that his filing system was a system of folders named according to the date. So he never had a build up of files in one particular place. I took this system on-board and modified it to my needs, and just thought I’d share it here. I have a folder on the desktop called “_today”.

I recently dipped my toes into the Actionscript 3 toes. This is quite a readjustment from the experience of the past 7/8 years of traditional actionscript development. I was somewhat prepared after having done a lot of projects with Object Oriented programming languages. Specifically Java and C# (VB sucks balls). I, along with most actionscript developers, tried to con ourselves that first abusing the prototype property and then the abortive actionscript 2 was actually OOP.

This is a great little equation, which can be used to describe population growth. The most interesting thing about it, is that certain values cause it to display random (chaotic) behavious. Not the most exciting thing in the world to most, but… //
