Once again, Mark Fiore is dead on with his look at Tom Ridge- Minister of Fear.

Homestar & TMBG

Speaking of Strong Bad being a favorite, I can't get enough of this recent collaboration between Homestarrunner.com and They Might Be Giants. The Brothers Chaps animated a video of the new TMBG single from "The Spine" called "Experimental Film" - definitely check it out.

BrainStream: My own FOAFing in WordPress

Being extremely jealous of the other guys hacking apart WordPress to make it FOAF-y, I've actually done my own PHP hack. This one required nothing more than making sure the "Profile" field under the WordPress User Profile contained a one-line bio. Or...thereabouts. Then I added the "olb" property from the Bio Vocabulary.

Then I made an edit to Christoph Görn's hack of Morten Frederiksen's foaf-output plugin 1.9, (found in wp-content/plugins when installed) and added the following lines:

After the line

xmlns:dc="http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/"

I added:

xmlns:bio="http://purl.org/vocab/bio/0.1/"

and after the line

$rdf .= "\n\t" . '<homepage rdf:resource="' . htmlspecialchars($authordata->user_url) . '"/>';

, I added:

if($authordata->user_description)

                $rdf .= "\n\n\t" . '<'bio:olb>' . htmlspecialchars($authordata->user_description) . '</bio:olb>' . "\n";

Finally, something I can hack myself. Next step is to try and add a birthdate. Not nearly as easy.
