    And what about the first entries, there are no names, just rym's thing, scott's thing.

    For the organisation I suggest one says he'll/she'll do page 80-70 (I think 10 pages per step are good) and then posts them

  • @Viga_D_Son: Message me sometime this evening (see my chat ID's and email address in my user info) - I think I may be able to assist with a little bit of RegEx.



    Use of a shared Google Spreadsheet will help to coordinate the link-checking aspect of this project. It should help with general organization as well. I'll get that set up around 2-ish (if no one beats me to it).

    Give it an appropriate name? Also, put notes if links are dead. We can all work together to try to repair as many of the broken links as possible.

    If you guys use a Google spreadsheet, you can just share that spreadsheet with me instead of mailing me a text file.

    OBJECTION! Improper use of my name!
  • You're a bean-wright? You make beans?? That's actually pretty cool.

    Yeah, I didn't check the spelling. Does that make my spreadsheet worse?

    I can't tell, as you haven't shared it with me. ;)

    It's in...German?

    Since there's more of us now should we split this job into sections? Looks like someone started already on the sheet. Well lets do this!
  • Yes me, sorry for the german thing, google uses my isps location to specify the language.
  • Then what are copy, paste and words I need to know.
  • edited November 2007
    copy-kopieren
    paste-einfuegen (umlaut u)
    words-woerter (umlaut o)

    umlaut=two stripes/dots above the letter

    But isn't it better to just use the hotkeys?

    There is one problem with the spreadsheets, it doesn't allow zeros in front of a number.

  • Hotkeys...Duh! I had a brain fart! My bad lol.
  • Have you guys come across any posts where someone posted more than one link? If so, link me to the post please.
  • Do it! I like FaceBook, and a GN app would own.
  • There are some of these double posts, they have a note on the right side saying so.

    051207, 051215, 060103, 060223 have two things/parts for one person, so far the list only goes to episode 060315.

    If someone else wants to help please just say so!

    I'm working on a Regex that will tear through the posts, which is why I was asking about odd posts - I'm gathering pattern information. Clarification needed: do Geekbites or Newses fall under things of the day? I'm guessing "no" for newses, but I'm on the fence regarding Geekbites.

  • Aye, I'll help. My weekend starts tomorrow (it's Thursday evening here) and I have nothing to do. My gmail account is just nineless@etc~

    Just click jain7th's link and join.

    You want to know something messed up. I have to keep from getting distracted by the links. 10 things I hate about commandments made me LOL so hard.

  • If you guys also want to give me geekbites and things of the day, that's cool, but we'll have to change the format to something more along these lines. This is just an example I have made, not real data.

  • Let's just keep it to things of the day then. ;)



    To anyone checking links, I was able to capture a couple hundred after 6/5/2006. They still need to be verified.
  • (...and there may be a few missing. Feel free to check if you see any gaps.)
  • Yeah...I don't know what to do with 060515 since there are 2 links for one thing of the day.
  • I will say this.  For all of you who contribute substantially to this, there will be goodies of some kind, and in the very least a link/mention in the credits section of the new web site. ^_^
  • I'll join in on this. Are we going to partition up the posts somehow?

    Last I checked at work I left off in the April-May 06 manually putting in the links and their status. Phil, has put up the rest through the regEx thing but the links need to be verified to see what works and doesn't. If you could help verify them that would help a lot! The link to the google docs is on the first page in one of Jain7th posts.

    I keep getting distracted by checking each one. C for Cookie was so awesome. LOL!

  • you have a google log in?
  • Ya, it says my email, then "..does not have access.."
