VENOM is the name of a Python-based movie database that I've programmed with the help of Tony, my Swedish friend. It's not IMDB, and won't ever list all the details of a movie, it's just for making recommendations mostly. So, a small group of people (less than 30 for sure) recommending movies. It works pretty well so far since I got the Add Movie feature working a day or two ago. Today I'm going to add the Add Comment/Review feature (already programmed, but not in the webpage).
And I should really code the user database...
That's my programmer update for today. In case anyone is wondering, I am not using MySQL or any databases like that. A file-based system (read: a text file) works well and loads pretty quickly so far, thank you very much.
Anyway, I still haven't started my English assignment and it's due on Tuesday night. I hate the book that this assignment is based on. It's titled the Castle of Otranto and is possibly the worst piece of writing to read ever. There are no quotations so you never know where one conversation ends and another begins until you get to the "he said"/"she replied" parts of the paragraphs. And the worst thing is that the book sounds like a combination of Shakespeare's Hamlet and Macbeth. Just terrible. This is worse than highschool somehow.
On Nick & Nate I've started posting with song titles as the subjects of each post, and I think I'll start doing that next time. But, for the record, I would have titled this post: "Friday I'm In Love".
VENOM!

Someone searched for: web page authorizing using openoffice
Ok, let's get something straight, you do not, you absolutely do not use an office suite to design a webpage. If you wouldn't use Word for this, you wouldn't use AbiWord, KWord, or OpenOffice's Writer.
Here are some good alternatives:

Searching and searching...MySpace Extended Network
It seems a lot of people stumble upon my blog while searching for answers among other things. I shouldn't be surprised but I am, and I'll take a moment to answer/talk-about a few.
First, someone asked Ask.com: what is the myspace extended network?
Answer: Good question internet person! The MySpace Extended Network tells you if someone can be connected to you following a path of friends. And in almost every single case, every single person on MySpace is in your Extended Network thanks to the fact that you're friends with Tom. In conclusion, the MySpace Extended Network is a waste of time and tells you nothing. Please stop asking...
Second, a lot of people seem to be interested in MySpace vs. LiveJournal/TagWorld/etc. Let's put it this way, just because a lot of people use your site/software, it does not mean it's any good. Those sites are like the homepage craze of a few years ago, where everyone had a homepage to talk about their boring shitty lives. These sites have just given a different name to them and made them more socially acceptable. But we must not let this continue! Rise my fellow Internet intellectuals and something something!
Anyway, MySpace and the bunch are allowing everyone to post anything, and unsurprisingly, 99.9% of it is crap. If you're going to only communicate things that only interest close friends, keep it off the Web and talk about it over the phone or face-to-face or IM. I don't care if I sound elitist, but no one wants to hear a bunch of teenagers whine about their family or friends. And a few words I agree with, from Eric S. Raymond,
Update: Changed the title to include myspace extended network because it seems people are still heading to the MySpace vs. Tagworld page and blah.

Give the audience a reason to care. Too many web pages are like tales told by idiots, full of sound and fury, signifying nothing. Do you want to be interesting? Then forget the graphics and the glitz. First and foremost, have something to say.
