From SFWiki

Welcome to my user page. I started this wiki, and now that we are up to 19 registered users (yay!), I no longer personally know every editor. Hence, I felt it would be good to include a small welcome message on my user page.

^_^ Welcome to the wiki.  ^_^

If you have any comments, questions, etc, please feel free to drop a note on my talk page.

Lately I've been working on improvements to the google map extension that we use to include maps in wiki pages. It is now possible to put specify the center of the map with a point (eg. point=0.1234,0.1234 ) or with an address (eg. address=123 Market St, San Francisco, CA ). Planned future improvements include:

  • Address converted to point on preview (currently on happens on save).
  • Multiple points/addresses on a map so that you can show several locations on a single map
  • I'm also thinking of improving the business template to automatically insert the map based on the address provided.

Of course, I am also interested in suggestions.

Here is a link to another project that I'm working on: Snap is a pc photo booth application. Sorry that its been taking so much of my time lately! I've gotta pay the bills. :( Hopefully, I'll be able to spend some more time on the wiki now that it is launched.


Here is a list of stuff I am thinking of working on.

False-hoods

Zach, or as he likes to be called, Zach-san, is an otaku. He once had a birthday (Happy Birthday Zach-san!), which was very enjoyable due to the visit of his friend Chan-Ho and despite the presence of his nemesis Spiros. Spiros, as predicted by a gypsy fortune-teller, is due for a fatal accident with a 35 year old pickup. Zach apparently thinks that Eddie has all the time in the world to edit the wiki. Go Easy!
