Thoughts Are Dangerous Things! | nedge2k.com | Films, Film, Into, Like, Ive

So I was settling down for an evening alone (Lace is away on placement at the mo) and there was bugger all on telly so I decided to watch a film. Which one though? There are so many films I like and I can never remember them all. The most I can remember is about 10 and those are usually ones I've either seen recently or am not in the mood to watch. Then I had a thought, I really should catalogue the films I like. Then I had another thought about doing it online. Then another about integrating it into my blog and so on. So here I sit at 5:30am and I've just written my first wordpress plugin! :D

It took me a few hours but then I did have to get re-aquatinted with PHP after being tainted by my recent and rather 'full-on' exposure to ASP. Plus wordpress is bloody confusing to integrate stuff into (well, at first). Anyway, it basically just wraps the IMDB page URL for the film round the film name (I.e. a hyperlink) and spurts the films out into the sidebar under "My Fav Films" and if I'm logged in, I get the option to add a film there and then (no faffing about in the admin pages) :)

It may not sound like much to most of you hardcore coders out there but I'm quite proud of my effort. I can do coding me! :D
