I said I would post the theme for headlines when I thought it was acceptable. There are still problems, but whatever.

There [...]

I wrote a post on Paintball Headlines that had a side note about how paintball board software was done, and how I might write python scripts demonstrating both ways. Well, I did. Here they are. threaded.py runs the check in different threads while event.py only runs the check when an event occurs (the trigger is [...]

This is a pretty simple little script I coded a while back that will play an n amount of randomly picked shows from a collection of shows. Like, "randomshow.py 5" will play 5 randomly picked episodes back to back. I usually use this to cue up some shows right before going to sleep. It's better [...]
This is a plugin based on the YouTube widget. It'll display a YouTube video, most likely in your sidebar, by calling the youtube function which you can specify the url, width, height, and if it'll autoplay. It's not much, at all, but meh. Download youtube-plugin.zip (youtube-plugin.tar.gz) This plugin is one function called youtube that will [...]
Number 8 in Widget-A-Day is a reddit widget. It'll display your latest liked items on reddit.com. You can edit the display, count, and username. Not much of widget (can be kinda done via the RSS widget), but it'll be the closer in Widget-A-Day. I might have one on Saturday, but there's no guarantee. It's been [...]

Sorry for the lateness. Went out, and it wasn't working by the time I left. Anyways, number 6 in Widget-A-Day is a Digg widget. It'll display your latest dugg stories and the number of diggs the story has. It can be customized to include just about all the information the RSS feeds gives. Check out [...]
Number 5 in Widget-A-Day is a Weather widget. It isn't too fanciful. It displays the current condition, temperature, and the feels like temperature. It uses weather.com's xoap api to retrieve the information. I'll probably come back to this and make it better. Download weather.zip SVN Checkout svn co http://svn.wp-plugins.org/weather-widget/trunk Default display: Admin panel: Requirements WordPress [...]
Today is my birthday. Woo! So that means, I'm not doing anything fancy, so without further ado Number 4 in Widget-A-Day is a countdown widget. It'll display the amount of time until a certain event, or if it passed, how long ago it was. Lame? Yes. Do I care? Not really. Is there Javascript? No. [...]
