I sat down to work on a Ruby implementation of TypeKey about an hour and a half ago. 5 minutes of that time was spent deleting recently accumulated comments (none of which passed moderation) and the rest was spent making the site TypeKey-only. Sorry for everyone that thinks TypeKey is the spawn of satan. It's really just an easy way to authenticate users and it's done a great job of keeping comment spammers off many sites. If you've forgiven me for only allowing TypeKey and still want to comment somewhere on the site, you can go to TypeKey and sign up.
Fixed some other small things that've been bothering me about the site over the period of time since I last played with it. I took away the stylesheet switcher and the alternative stylesheets for the moment. I never did end up getting the last four world-styles up. I've had a little renewed interest in Mario since I've been able to play Super Mario World (of the SNES) on my DS and maybe something good will come from that.
I'm working on some interesting stuff for my renewed typepad blog, Creation. The articles there tend to be longer and more geeky (as was the point for the late zeroconf blog). A few bits there at the moment and more in draft form.
Right. Back to that ruby thing.

So, have you finished your Ruby implementation of TypeKey? What's the status?

Actually, I'd forgotten all about it. I must have been doing it for some purpose that went away... Perhaps I'll dig it up again soon.
