Hello, Mr Sun

10:39am JST Thursday 7 August 2008 (day 14015)

I sang a freestyle love song to Sol, Earth, clouds, trees, walls, nature on the way to the train station. The sun is bright today after having been chillin' behind storms for a few days this week.

For the record, the song was mostly to the tune of Hello Mr Zebra by Tori Amos.

Hello Mr Sun
How are you today?
thank you for warming up the world in your special way!
The gratitude I posess for you
has got to fill up the whole zoo
so if you're ever lonely 
then just smile down on me!

Etc, then,

I figured it out
if I wanna be happy
all I have to do is 
simply be happy ee ee

Or some such. Good song. Thanks, Tori!

Work late

Just on the train now to leave Shibuya. We're working long hours, though not more than super long.. not _ridiculously_ long hours such as staying over night each night. But it's exciting because we're about to launch sbstrm, our newest website (the only website I've "launched" that has any chance of wild success), which I've not been really involved with the design/creation, but I've been working on takeout (not even close enough to ready to be linked here) which has similar architecture, so I have a pretty good idea of how it's set up.

My job now is to fix Malek's error-infested English and do a full run-through of the system, looking for bugs. I've found three major ones that I can remember, fixed some user-experience issues, and noticed a security hole that's now been fixed.

We're going for a soft launch on Monday, so feel free to check back at that time. Not sure that we'll be able to do it that soon though; the entire site still needs to be translated, and that's *after* I fix all the English, much of which is being used as keys for the translation engine, so if it gets changed, the keys must be changed as well.

Though I've been working long hours at 77hz, I also got several maps created on chatforest.com, in preparation for a meeting with Tariq tomorrow morning at Krispy Kreme!

It's also not ready to be launched, but feel free to add /map to that domain to see what I've made so far. It ain't much, nor correct, but it's a start.
