Microformats Logo

This is just a reminder that the Web Standards Group Microformats special is happening on the 19th October at Westminster University’s New Cavendish Street Campus. (near to Goodge Street tube station). Thanks to Dean Wilson who has been really helpful in liasing with the University for the use of their lecture theatre. Due to the change of venue it’s been possible to make the second London WSG event free for all to attend. All I ask is that if you are planning to come please sign up on upcoming.org.

Speaking at the event will be three people who rank among some of the leading lights in the field of microformats; Drew McLellan, Jeremy Keith and Mark Norman Francis. Between them they will be covering the nuts and bolts of microformats through to some more involved implementations.

For more information on the event, and how to get to the venue please head on over to the WSG London mini-site.

GNU screen: open tab in current working directory|(1)

A nice trick for having screen open a new tab in the same directory as the one you’re currently in. To use it add it to your .screenrc

# Open new window in current dir.
bind c stuff "screen -X chdir \$PWD;screen^M"
bind ^c stuff "screen -X chdir \$PWD;screen^M"

Ubuntu: add-apt-repository: command not found|(2)

When you’re using a minimal Ubuntu install if you find the ‘add-apt-repository’ command is missing (it’s useful for adding PPAs and other repositories), then simply run:

sudo apt-get install python-software-properties
