I started doing another song last night in Reason. I originally intended to make a breakbeat dance song in the vein of Hybrid. However, as I kept writing, I began to lose focus and it degraded into a cheesy house song, and was moving further and further away from the song I originally envisioned. The song was already too far along to go back and change it, so I lost interest in continuing. But I’ve decided to, rather than just scrap the song, release it as is, without any intent on improving its mediocrity – restricting the entire creation time to one night while drunk. It’s released as what I’m now calling a One Night Drunk Songwriting Experiment on the music page. You may see more of these in the future.

XXCache 0.0.1 is released, and xxcache now has a project page of its own under Programming->PHP, with the release, changelog, requirements, and full usage instructions.

It’s not fancy or amazing, but it works.

I split out the tiny cache framework I used in MDB and Codex into a self-contained unit, so it can be pretty much dropped in and used in any PHP project.  I’m putting it into gitphp, but it still needs a couple more days of testing as a standalone library before I can make an actual release and project page for it.  It’s obviously not as full featured as some of the many other php caching projects, but it’s useful for what it does (caching of php data with different pluggable cache types, using abstracted calls without needing to know anything about the chosen cache implementation).
