Added Current Status Section

Posted by Abe on Wednesday, August 15, 2001 @ 10:08 am

I added a new section to my main page this morning - current status.

It shows my current status information from

Jabber. I’m almost

always logged into Jabber when I’m online, so the information

there should be accurate.

The actual Jabber status request can take a few seconds to run,

and I didn’t want to slow down the loading time for this page.

So I wrote a seperate script (in

Python, of course) that

runs as a cron job every couple of minutes and writes my status

information to a text file. Then my home page reads the file.

Seems to work so far.
