Examples of Websites Using Different Techniques
by Steven Greenberg Dec. 13, 2012

Dec. 13, 2012

I have examples of three different techniques that I have used for creating web sites. My personal web site is mostly hand coded HTML and CSS, with some custom Javascript and PHP. The drop down menus are pure HTML and CSS. http://www.ssgreenberg.name/ The politics link on my website takes you to my politics blog that uses Wordpress. http://ssgreenberg.name/PoliticsBlog/ I have my experimental website using Drupal 6. http://www.ssgreenberg.name/Drupal/Drupal/ the last example is the Friends of The Joshua Hyde Public Library on which I have used Drupal 7 http://www.sturbridgelibraryfriends.org/ I did a much more complex web site in Drupal 6 for a Square dance club, but that site is no longer available. I'll be happy to discuss the pros and cons of each technique. /Steve P.S. I have some Javascript which I use often for doing Outlines on web sites in HTML. http://www.ssgreenberg.name/SSGSoftware/OutlinesInHTML/ I also have some Javascript which I use to display all my photo albums on the web. One example is: http://www.ssgreenberg.name/Pictures/2011/10-28-Snow/index.php The software at the bottom of these pages that keep track of and displays the info about how many reads and readers there are for each page was also written by me and uses a MySQL database to keep the data that drives the display of information. -- Steven Greenberg Email: steve(a)ssgreenberg.name 251 Holland Rd.

Need some help with digital signal processing ...
by David Glaser Dec. 12, 2012

Dec. 12, 2012

Hi Folks, I need some help with an Android app for the hearing impaired. Essentially, the app is to be used with a wearable android device (Google Glasses or theSony android wrist watch) and will listen for sounds such as the door bell or the tty, or any other household soundthat should be reported to the wearer. Capturing the sound using an Android device is not the problem. What I don't know is how to compare the incoming sound stream with sound signatures that should cause the event to occur. Once the event occurs, then text can be displayed on the googleglasses or the haptic transducer on the wrist watch can be activated. This app is intended to be open sourceso I'm looking for volunteer help on the algorithms. I will do the programming. Regards David Glaser dglaser(a)glaserresearch.net

Announce: Meeting December 12th 7PM, WPI Campus Center Mid-Century Room 331
by Chuck Anderson Dec. 12, 2012

Dec. 12, 2012

We are having a WLUG meeting this evening, December 12, at 7:00 PM in the WPI Campus Center, Mid-Century Room 331. http://www.wpi.edu/Admin/CC/Floorplans/37678.htm This seems like a good time to talk about the WLUG website. We've had half-completed plans since about 2 years ago to replace the hardware and software to create a Wiki or Drupal site to replace the outdated and manually-maintained-by-me HTML site. This week I plan to finally migrate things over to the new server, but the content will still be the old HTML site for now. We need some volunteers to help build a new site in either MediaWiki or Drupal or some other framework. After the meeting, we'll continue discussions over at Tech Pizza. Hope to see you there, Chuck

Ebook Creation
by dulsi＠identicalsoftware.com Dec. 5, 2012

Dec. 5, 2012

Has anyone made an ebook under linux? Specifically I'm taking about epub and mobi formats for supporting ereaders. I stupidly decided to do NaNoWriMo (National Novel Writing Month - 50,000 words in 30 days) and succeeded. I still have to clean up the novel but assuming I finish that I'd like to convert it to ebook format.

LCD - to fix or not to fix?
by joel d Nov. 23, 2012

Nov. 23, 2012

Hi WLUG, My conundrum is whether to work on soldering most likely capacitors into an old 18 inch LCD later this week in a haze of starch and tryptophan. Is it worth it to re-hab it for use as a basement/workshop PC? Happy Thanksgiving, Joel
