I created an account on reddit, and submitted a link to ProgClub to programming.reddit.com. Figured we’re far enough along now with our services implementation that advertising is reasonable. Didn’t get any clickthroughs or upvotes though — I think I’ve been ignored! :(

New ProgClub logo
There’s a new logo for ProgClub, you can read all about it on the ProgClub logo page. A new favicon.ico file has been published, but the old one might be stuck in your cache.
My anthem
Alright, I’m the king of the world. (Hold it, hold it…)
I’m a mad man. (Wait, wait…)
I shook up the world!
I shook up the world!

I’m out of control.
I think I’m goin’ crazy.
I’m out of my mind:
You can see it in my eyes.
I’m lookin’ for love,
In all of your faces.
I’m lookin’ for love…
I think I’m goin’ crazy.
I feel tonight…
We’re bought and sold.
Ah yeah,
I think I’ll overload.
I’m talkin’ about crazy.
I’m talkin’ about crazy!
I’m a mad man!
I shook up the world!
I’m a crazy man…
Ain’t that right!?
This ball of confusion…
Too big for the both of us!
Get outta my town… tonight!
I’m a mad man!
I wanna shake up the world!
I’m a crazy man!
I’m goin’ crazy.
I’m goin’ crazy!
Suck on my love meat.
Now suck on my steed!
I gotta go crazy.
If you know what I mean.
I’m goin’ crazy.
I’m goin’ crazy!
I’m a mad man!
Crazy!
I’m looking for you…
Through all of these faces.
Waiting so long…
I think I’m going crazy.
I’m lookin’ at you…
Feel my direction.
Aw yeah,
No reason to survive.
Yeah… I’m talkin ’bout crazy.
Ha ha ha… I think I’m gonna blow!
(Whoa, yeah!)
I’m a mad man!
I shook up the world!
I’m a crazy man!
Ain’t that right!?
This ball of confusion…
Too big for the both of us!
Get outta my town… tonight!
Ha ha!
I’m a mad man!
I wanna shake up the world!
I’m a crazy man!
I’m goin’ crazy!
Ha ha ha ha ha…
Wah! Suck on my love meat.
Now suck on my steed!

Searching google
ProgClub is number one for programmer “good club”, cooler than progsoc and progclub. The results for programmers’ club and good programmers’ club are appalling — we’re nowhere to be seen (and the results for those queries are pretty useless, it’d make more sense if we were listed).
Help, I’m being raped by Googlebot!
Friggin’ Googlebot is crawling all over pcrepo, even though I told it NOT TO DO THAT. My robots.txt file has been updated to disallow svnro for most of the day. Google really should have a facility for web-masters to be able to force a reload of robots.txt in Googlebot. They’re going to hit me thousands of times before this is over. :(
ProgClub news
There’s been news every day for a while now. Not too shabby. Today’s news is that ViewVC (aka: Pcview) has been installed and configured on charity.progclub.org. That means that now pcrepo can be browsed online. Comes complete with support for syntax highlighting and line-numbers (courtesy of the ‘highlight’ package, couldn’t get enscript to work for PHP) and a proper logo with a link back to the wiki. That’s five completed projects now! Go school!
Installing ViewVC
I’ve discovered ViewVC, and am planning to install it on ProgClub’s server for pcrepo. I’m having some trouble.
Communism is like Academia is like Wikipedia
They all sound great in theory, with their lofty ideals, but the closer you get to them the more you realise their proponents and participants are generally small-minded closed-minded exclusive elitist authoritarian wankers of the first order.

Involved in some design discussion on the wikitech mailing list.
