i often end up at some really strange sites on my internet “travels” (so to speak).
anyway, i was at travel.travel/ just before, looked up, and saw a very familiar favicon.

i’m confused…

could be completely wrong here, so don’t be telling me off if I am, but the new mood thing on myspace looks veeery familiar.

it’s the exact same mood list (down to the id numbers in the select box) as the one that livejournal has been using for years and years.

maybe it’s just a strange magical coincidence.
or maybe there’s a nice list with strange id’s out there that’s free for people to use.
or maybe they bought the code from sixapart.
or maybe the stole it.
i dunno.

as mashable puts it,

"Reactee is a unique service that lets you wear your message on your shirt, along with a number for others to text their support via their mobile phones."

there aught to be an Australian version of this…

I got bored, and decided to mess around a bit with some javascript. i found a battleships script, and modified it a bit. Slightly crap because the computer only moves 16 times, and it’s game over.

I also added some hex coords to the game, and a list of shots at the bottom, just to make it easier to keep track of where you’ve been.

I should figure out how to encode this on to a HD-DVD. Until then, I’ll just have to stick with this, and watching the familiar pattern of the computer’s moves…

anyway, the game can be found at ttam.org/battleships/…enjoy.

Matt: whyve you got so many windows?

Bill: they just...happened

matt: WTF?WT?FW?WT

On my random travels on the internet, I ended up at spry.com, and I’ve never found a more ironic SQL error message than
this one:

click for a legible version

.

On another note, I ordered some custom number plates the other day. I probably should wait till I get my license, but eh.

W00 I rebooted.
Yes, I used the K2 theme, but I spose it’s a reboot of sorts, isn’t it?
I’ll change stuff. Eventually.
Anyway, Bye.

Well, yesterday I pretty much got accused of cheating, and using software to create
this javascript:

function highlight()
{
    x = event.srcElement.id;
    document.getElementById(“rangea”).className = “”;
    document.getElementById(“rangeb”).className = “”;
    document.getElementById(“rangec”).className = “”;
    document.getElementById(“ranged”).className = “”;
    document.getElementById(“rangee”).className = “”;

    document.getElementById(“itema”).className = “”;
    document.getElementById(“itemb”).className = “”;
    document.getElementById(“itemc”).className = “”;
    document.getElementById(“itemd”).className = “”;
    document.getElementById(“iteme”).className = “”;
    document.getElementById(“itemf”).className = “”;
    document.getElementById(“itemg”).className = “”;
    document.getElementById(“itemh”).className = “”;
    document.getElementById(“itemi”).className = “”;

    document.getElementById(x).className = “sel”;
}

function mover()
{
    x = event.srcElement.id;
}

function mout()
{
    x = event.srcElement.id;
}

function flickeri()
{
    if(document.all)
    {
        document.getElementById(“rangeinfo”).innerHTML = event.srcElement.moo;
    }
}

function flickero()
{
    document.getElementById(“rangeinfo”).innerHTML = “”;
}

function matt()
{
    if (!links)
        return;
    for (var i = 0; i < links.length; ++i)
    {
        links[i].onclick = highlight;
        if(undefined!=linkInfo[i])
        {
            links[i].moo = linkInfo[i];
            links[i].onmouseover = flickeri;
            links[i].onmouseout = flickero;
        }
    }
    
}
var links = document.getElementsByTagName(‘a’);
linkInfo = new Array(links.length);
linkInfo[1] = “Go back to the home page.”;
linkInfo[2] = “View the Beijing Range.”;
linkInfo[3] = “View the Homeware Range.”;
linkInfo[4] = “View the National Range.”;
linkInfo[5] = “Everything Fine In China history.”;
window.onload = matt;

.
in a uni assignment where we were only allowed to use text editors.
i got the assignment back at, and it has “mark withheld. please see convenor” written on it.
So I went to see the convenor, and he asked why I’d used CSS on this assignment, so I explained that, while he’d taught the class that tables and the font tag are perfectly valid xhtml strict, I didn’t believe so, and he asked about the JavaScript, so I explained it was to “prettify” the menu.

Then he asked which program I’d used to create the script, and I said I’d used Notepad and Crimson Editor, so he said that “since this .js file opens in DreamWeaver, It makes me think you used DW to make the file”, so I explained that I don’t even have it installed.

He then said that since he didn’t teach this stuff in class, he doesn’t understand how I could have made it. So I explained that I’ve been coding for about 6.5 years, which he didn’t seem to understand, and kept going round in circles trying to find out what I’d used to “generate” this JavaScript.

The conversation ended along the lines of “I’ll have to give you the benefit of the doubt, because I can’t prove you cheated. Although you can’t prove you didn’t”.

after i saw all the other maps, like robotjohnny’s and all the other ones, I decided I’d attempt an anagram map of Melbourne’s Train Map.
It’s pretty crap, but I was bored and I’m sick so I had the day off Uni.
Also, there’s one or two stations that I couldn’t change. (such as Bell).
anyway, like I said, it’s really crap/doesn’t make sense, but you can click the picture to see it for yourself. (it’s almost 1000×1000 px)

woo. i googled myself, and various other random things, and look where i came:

• ttam: #1, #5
• matt bannon: #1, #2, #3, #8
• tehskank: #1, #2, #3, #4, #5, #8, #9
• room5: #3 (need to get more attention I think )
• room5 skank: #1, #2
• crazycrazy: #1, #2
• 7semitytneves: all

these are as of 23:51 on 21/3/2006 so they’ll probably change soon.

woo. nothing interesting on there yet.

Add comment June 1st, 2005

i googled my name before and found this and this. not that interesting, i know. but i completely forgot about them.
well, i didn’t know about the second one. looks like someone copied it.
and don’t you LOVE my old email address?

this was at the top of the list when i googled my name a few weeks ago.

===========================

and before, i almost shat myself. went into mums room to get a phone charger, coz i can’t find mine, and the blanket on her bed was scrunched up, so it looked like someone was in the bed, and it was my dads side.
that scared me for a second.

============================

anyway, enough from me.
bye anyone who’s reading this.

that’s all.
