Getting Organised

Organisation isn't one of my strongest points, which apparently is surprising as I like things to be organised and logical (I could argue that my chaotic way of doing things is logical, but I can't be bothered right now!).

Coincidentally, whilst thinking that I should start to organise myself both here and at work a friend of a friend posted a bit about wiki on a stick (it's a wiki on, well, a stick... oh read his is if you want more details!). Perfect, just what I need, except, it doesn't appear to have any calendar features (that I can see, and it has been known for me to miss the complete and utter obvious on more than one occasion...). So, in true work avoidance style, I set to creating my own.

This is what I've come up with. Fairly simple to use, copy and paste the css into your css file in the wiki (advanced::css) and then copy and paste the generated code into a new wiki page (title February 2008 for example) or into the menu (you may need to play with your css to view it properly, mine overlapped a bit) and voila, a calendar. Click the links to create a page for a specific date, go to the Calendar:: namespace to view all calendar entries. Maybe this will be useful to you, probably it won't, but it's kept me quiet for a little bit and will hopefully improve my productivity in the future. Oh and before you start finding them, yes I'm sure there are bugs, but it wouldn't be a piece of my code if there weren't...
