More Wave Invites
Seems like Google want more people using Google wave, so my current amount of invites are 25!
Post on the Tagwall with the email you want the invite sent to, and I'll throw one your way.
Happy Waving!
Tis the season
As we'll be hitting December soon with both my birthday and Christmas, I've had some requests for a wishlist, so I tried setting one up.
It's quite a lot of expensive wishes, but I reckoned it'd be slightly more interesting than just wishing for cash.
Happy holidays! :)
TV guide channel sorting
Got around to adding channel sorting to the TV guide.
Other than that, Christmas and exams are coming up, so I'm guessing I'll be spending even less time on the site.
Ideally, I'd like the adding, removing and sorting of the channels to be done on one page, but that will have to wait for now.
After that, I still need to get some performance improvements done. I got the basics down, but ran into a problem where it would ignore show data completely if it contained "special" (זרו) characters, so reverted it for now.
Google Wave invites
I've been using the Google Wave beta for a little while now, and I've finally gotten a hold of some invites, if anyone should be interested.
Google Wave is basically Google's proposal for a new communication platform.
A wave can function both as emails and as documents, and is ideal for group communication.
Personally, I've used it both for organizing events and for taking notes from my lessons.

I currently have 8 invites up for grabs. If you're interested, post a message on my Tagwall with the email you want the invite sent to, and I'll throw one your way.
Happy Waving!
Tiny update
Got around to fixing one of the things on the to-do list (sort of).
The TV script now uses a single cookie for storing channels, allowing it to hold vastly more channels. There is, however, still a limit of around ~100 channels, since not only is there a limit on how many cookies you can set, but also a limit on how big you can make them...
In any case, I doubt there's a lot of people browsing more than 100 channels.
Should there be any issues because of the update, please try clearing your cookies.
Spring (?) cleaning
I got around to deleting most of the old and unused files on the site, and organised the rest of the files.
It shouldn't have caused any issues for the new version, but if you notice something missing, please contact me and I'll see if I can get around to getting it fixed..
Site relaunched! (yet again)
Hello there, and welcome to my site!
It's actually fairly old already, and has been waiting around on http://llotus.dk/v2/ where I was working on it.
However, after starting on my B.Sc. degree in Software Development, I've found myself with less time on my hands, and development on this version of the site only happened sporadically, at best.
Thus, I decided to release what was done, even if it wasn't quite finished.
This version does have a better back-end, a better design, more features and better programming in general.
Some of this I'm pretty happy with, some I've already found better solutions to, but alas, time is keeping me from implementing them. All in all, I believe this to be better than the old version of the site (I've now added an "About the site" page as well, should you be interested in more information about the site).
I'd love to see people use and comment on the site, figure out bugs, suggest improvements and the like.
Current to-do list is finishing the TV-script:
- Allowing ordering the channels.
- Some optimization so I don't have to load the data remotely on every page request (and process it before use).
- Selecting more channels (current limit is 20-50 based on your browser, though I doubt it's likely that more are needed).
- Possible allow people to see the tv-list for a few days ahead (currently not sure if this is possible, with the tv-data I have available, but it might be).
