In descending chronological order. Thursday, 25 June 2009. 18 months ago a few of us started work on something rather special. 12 hours ago, we won the advertising industry's biggest award. We can now, officially, get a woop woop. To the guys who worked so closely with us the whole time, crafting words, designing t-shirts and making everything look wonderful: Chris, Richard B, Andy - you guys were the best creative team a bunch of geeks could have ever asked for.

In descending chronological order. Wednesday, 23 December 2009. 2009 - A good year. 2009 draws to a close, and it just struck me what a phenomenal year it has been. Drove across the USA, from New York to California, via Nashville, New Orleans, Austin and Roswell. Moved to San Francisco. Helped AKQA and Fiat win loads of awards. Hung out with a supermodel. And got paid for it. Got interviewed by Wired Magazine. Along with a cool photo shoot. Joined a great team at AKQA SF, and helped make it even greater.

Renting an apartment in London that has working heating and hot water is one of them, converting an Authenticode certificate from SPC and PVK files to a format that you can sign Adobe AIR files with is another. Since I still haven't figured out the former, I'm going to write about the latter. Do you feel lucky?

In descending chronological order. Tuesday, 11 May 2010. Random Grails tip: Using a DB reserved word as a domain class name in Grails. We recently came across a situation where we couldn't our Grails app was failing because it was trying to create a table with the name of 'Condition', which turns out to be a reserved word in MySQL. We worked around it by changing the name of the table to 'conditions' by using the Grails ORM DSL. But it turns out there is another way. Backtick to the rescue.

In descending chronological order. Friday, 18 June 2010. Alfresco 3.1.1 and paragraph tags. Right now I am getting to grips with the finer details of an Alfresco v3.1.1 installation. It has been fun*. Today's quest was all about stopping the TinyMCE plugin that Alfresco uses from wrapping absolutely everything in a p tag. Usually I love p tags. Way more than I love br tags. But not all content entered through a CMS should be wrapped in them. I found this bug report. Auto resize: false,. Theme advanced bu...
