Shattered Reality

Shit.

I have a blog.

Stefan’s Tools is a small, but useful, set of tools created by Stefan Kueng, the main developer behind TortoiseSVN. Most notable is the StExBar utility, which is essentially everything Microsoft forgot to implement in Windows Explorer.

If you’re a fan of these tools, you can send a small donation his way for all the work he puts into these. Don’t use those tools, but love TortoiseSVN? You can support that instead (or both!).

For anyone who may be editing in TextPad, there’s a way you can have some Subversion functionality within the TextPad interface.

I don’t think I’ve ever used TextPad, but hopefully someone will find this useful.

For those of us who are goal oriented (or at least pretend we are), there’s a nifty website out there called Joe’s Goals.

From the website:

[…]I built Joe’s Goals to make it stupidly simple to create, track, and share your personal goals. It is a productivity application that is actually easy enough to use.

And it really is just that: a website with some tools to help make tracking your goals as simple as it should be. You can have positive or negative goals; give each goal a weight of anywhere from -5 to +5 points; set what days each goal shows up on; create a log to take notes in (for example, what exercises you did that day); and more.

Oh, and you can get a nifty badge to put on your site or your Google homepage.

Take note: unless your goal is goal tracking itself, the site won’t help you actually do your goals. That’s coming in v2. (just kidding)

I don’t know how I missed this before, but the TortoiseSVN and Tortoise Merge manuals are available on the TortoiseSVN website in both PDF and HTML formats. Unless you’re using a nightly build of TortoiseSVN, you’ll want to read the release version (not developer version). Older manuals are also available in case you’re not using v1.4.3.
