RasterWeb!
And then there were three…
Madison, one of my favorite Wisconsin cities, is getting an Apple Store. It’s at West Towne Mall, and will open July 7th, 2007.
And just a week after the Bayshore store opened. (Note: I’m hoping to be at the Apple Store Bayshore on Saturday July 7th, 2007 – Jason, are you working that day?)
It still amazes me how many server admins fail to properly configure their web servers and dns so that foo.com works just as well as www.foo.com
On the other hand, there is a whole group of people who think that the ‘www’ is absolutely required, and even if you tell them to go to bar.foo.com, they will go to www.bar.foo.com, so make sure you set that up as well. It’s easy in Apache, just add a ServerAlias like so:
ServerName bar.foo.com
ServerAlias www.bar.foo.comA simple fix, and hopefully it will help prevent having to explain to people that you don’t need to type the ‘www’ part, just let them do it, it’s easier to fix things on the server than in people’s brains.
(And if you can’t make this fix on your server yourself, ask whoever maintains your server to make it for you.)
Remember when I mentioned a song I recorded called Shelf Life? Sure you do…

Gabe has just uploaded Oh, Hai Pete, a little number he sent me via email last week, which I somehow talked him into publishing for real.
Enjoy…
Kelly and Jeff Fitzsimmons just launched ComicWonder, which is a competitive arena for joke-tellers. Their mission is to “scour the earth looking for the best joke-teller in the world and crown that person the Comic Wonder of the year.”
I was hoping to get one of them to a Web414 meeting to talk about ComicWonder, but you know, they’ve been a little busy lately. :)
Grand Opening: Apple Store, Bayshore 6:00 p.m., Friday, June 29, 2007. Yup, that’s right! Another Milwaukee Apple Store. A good friend of mine works at this one. Sadly, I don’t think I can make the opening, but I do look forward to stopping by as soon as I can.
