When I mentioned yesterday that I was thinking of putting up a PayPal donations link on the site, I wasn’t really expecting anybody to take me up on the offer immediately :p But Theo Richardson – who is a Blog user who has his site here – immediately sent me an Amazon.Com gift certificate for $30! Thanks a lot, Theo – it really makes a difference to me as a coder to see such generous gestures of appreciation from my users. I immediately put it to use and got “Almost Famous untitled – The Bootleg Cut” since I’ve been meaning to get that for a long time – I’ll really enjoy that movie thanks to Theo 🙂 I hope it gets here before I leave though since I will be left wondering whether I’ll get the stuff forwarded at all if it doesn’t get here before I leave :p That reminds me, guess I should change the mailing address on my Amazon.Com wish list as well – not that anybody I know of has used it yet but still …

It was sort of a bitter sweet parting yesterday when I left work – it felt good to know that I won’t have to work for the next few weeks but I was sad to say good bye to some of the people that I’d worked with. Ah well, guess life is full of meetings and partings … I got to stay up later than normal yesterday since I didn’t have to get up early for work :p I still haven’t heard from Daniel about BOB and so I’m kinda debating as to what I should do next – whether I should release BOB 1.2 or continue working on it so that I can release a different version or not work on it at all and go back to Blog … Decisions, decisions :p

Can Bob be driven from a command line to batch update machines? That could be interesting….. 🙂

Nope, BOB has no command line support whatever at the moment :p The idea was to have a GUI batch upload utility since I believe there are many commandline versions – you can even do that with a simple script and the built-in Windows http://FTP.EXE … I am not planning to add command line support anyway since it seems kinda pointless since you don’t need to download BOB to do that kind of thing …
