Catch up

Yes, I’m still around.

I haven’t been blogging for a while, mainly because I’ve had a lot on lately. Trips to Adelaide and Melbourne, a rediculously increased workload, preparing to move house, and something big, that if everything pans out the way I’m expecting this week, I’ll be able to mention publicly next week.

I’m thinking about setting up a mini-wiki for my own personal use (and for the use of any friends/colleagues). A colleague has one up that he uses to store handy notes to himself when he learns something new, and I think it’s a great idea. I’ve been playing with Wikis at work over the past month, and finally get them. More soon.

In the meantime, here’s a link to a great tutorial for setting up virus scanning on the Mac using the free ClamAV (we use it on our Linux servers at work). Here’s another one, to an AppleScript that lets Mail.app scan your mail for viruses and deal with it accordingly.
