Citando Crozza che fa il verso a Marzullo, “piano piano, sottovoce, come piace a noi”, sono ho aggiornato la mia piattaforma di blogging, passando dalla vetusta 2.2 alla nuova e fiammante 2.3.1 .
Il passaggio e’ praticamente indolore, basta seguire le sempre utili istruzioni.

Avevo intenzione di scrivere questo post ieri, e il titolo sarebbe stato ovviamente “Un anno di statistiche”, ma in questo periodo sono piuttosto occupato al lavoro, e cosi’ il tutto e’ slittato a oggi, e dunque mi ritrovo un giorno in piu’ nel titolo.
Dunque ecco un breve resoconto di cio’ che mi salta all’occhio guardando le statistiche del mio blog.
Per prima cosa il primo post risale al 18/01/2006, ma le statistiche da questa data al 20/09/2006 non sono inserite nel db di SlimStat, la gestione delle statistiche che utilizzavo prima andava contro le policy di Netsons e cosi’ ho dovuto cambiare motore, con l’impossibilita’ (leggi mancanza di voglia) di importare i dati in Slimstat.
Veniamo ai numeri.
- 23422 hits e 9242 visite, niente male per i miei standard!
- Referring domains piu’ alti : google.com ,google.it e images.google.it
- Query string piu’ usate : “mcalamelli” e “novecolli”
- Lingua dei visitatori : italiano e inglese, ma sono anche presenti francesi, cechi, spagnoli, polacchi, finlandesi e russi!
- Risorsa piu’ visitata : la homepage
- Browser utilizzato: Firefox, seguito da Internet Explorer
- Sistema operativo : Windows, Linux e Mac
Ci sono comunque alcuni valori che falsano, o meglio che le offuscano un po’, le statistiche, tipo le percentuali di browser e sistemi operativi indicati come “Unknown”.
Se siete incuriositi, le statstiche sono pubblicamente visibili a questo indirizzo.
Sono molto soddisfatto!

On yesterday evening i played a little with Subversion, I was looking for a way to do a post in my blog after a commit.
I knew that there’s post-commit hooks, but only email-related. So i’ve taken my Python, and i wrote this script that connects to XML-RPC service built-in in Wordpress (using xmlrpclib), and provide to create a new post that contains the commit’s message, and a list of affected files (by a call to svnlook).
The script is very easy and customizable, I hope it will be a launch for everyone.
Ah, i talked about it also in Google Project hosting user group, I hope that someone listen to me…
Here’s the code
#!/usr/bin/python
import sys
import xmlrpclib
import os
xmlrpc_url = "http://localhost/wp/xmlrpc.php"
xmlrpc_username = "admin"
xmlrpc_password = "admin"
post_title = "Commit log"
repos = sys.argv[1]
rev = sys.argv[2]
log_message = os.popen(’svnlook log ‘ + repos).read()
affected_files = os.popen(’svnlook changed ‘ + repos).read()
server = xmlrpclib.Server(xmlrpc_url)
server.metaWeblog.newPost(1,xmlrpc_username,xmlrpc_password,{”title”:post_title, “description”:”Message: ” + log_message + “Affetcted files: \n” + affected_files},bool(1))
Stay tuned

After a little work, now IE6 can show correctly hidden lists: not its mistake, it has been enough to correct lists-related tags.
But now i’ve a question: what happens with other browsers? Have you Safari, Konqueror or Opera for some OSes? Can leave to me a comment as a test result?
Thanks!
Stay tuned

I had the bad idea to see my blog with Internet Explorer 6 and 7. Ok, usually i don’t like to say “IE sucks” or similar thing, but i’m in doubt: is it possible that every time i wrote HTML/Javascript code that are a little difficult than a table, i got a differences between Firefox and IE?
So i can start debugging…
Stay tuned

Other works on blog’s theme: now, on sidebar, Pages, Categories e Archives sections are hidden, and the user can choose if show them or not clicking over a self-explaining image on the right of the section title. In this way I can reduce the length of sidebar, in order to make my blog, imho, more clean.
Technical details: i’ve enclosed lists elements into a div, setting in the right way id and style attributes; then i’ve added the image on the right of section’s title, and JavaScript code in order to handle onClick event over the image. This code check the visibility state of div, and then show/hide the div and change the image in order to explain in graphical way the concept.
Next step: blogroll sections, but it seems to me that i’ve to modify Worpress code…
Stay tuned

Using Firebug, i’ve easily done some modifications to my Wordpress theme, reducing the font size of posts and increasing the area available for these. On closing, here’s a Firebug screencast.
Stay tuned
Updated! Now the screencast link works… Thanks Daniele!

I’ve modified a little things my blog, in order to accept the requests notified to me by readers. I’ve changed the footer’s text style to show it more readable, and I’ve added a new list on top of sidebar to get the right feed for your language (italian or english).
Stay tuned
