Just got a nice email in repsonse to some code I submitted publically:
“jon -
just a quick ‘thank you’ for the code you posted re: parsing csv files.
i have a gi-normous excel csv file with individual records spanning multiple lines because of multi-paragraph ‘notes’
fields in each record.
your solution of counting the fields and then parsing subsequent data based on the number of columns is so common sensical it makes me embarrassed that i didn’t think of it.
thanks again,
bruce.”

Around 130 years of peoples’ time have been spent using my various Facebook applications since August 2009. However, I think that the upcoming changes to the platform will have a negative effect for most Facebook API developers. The changes being made include removing notifications for when a user makes an action with an application (e.g. drawing on a friend’s photograph). The alternative given is to email the user directly after asking for their email address. This decision still surprises most people that I mention it to.
Facebook may soon make more money than Google (article).

Taking last month as an example (September 1st — October 1st), one of my more popular web applications was used by 332,174 unique visitors, spending an average of 6 mins 37 secs.
Working from that figure, 3.971 years are spent using the applications per month!

I took this photograph many years ago around Staffordshire University around 4AM in the eerie night, using a Pentax MZ-S, film, and a steady hand on the shutter release for a few minutes on bulb for long exposure. I remember when they said digital would never be better than film.
