HTTP favelets

Wednesday, December 18th, 2002

Tantek has written a couple of new favelets dealing with HTTP headers and transactions.

Now, if only he’d written these a couple of weeks ago, I would have saved quite a bit of time writing some Python code to do something similar.

Actually, I’m glad he didn’t, because I find I learn best by doing.

With current radio stations playing only commercial List music crap like Popstars, without the internet, how else am I supposed to find out what is good new music. Ten years ago, I didn’t have the same problem as I was a student and students do things like go to gigs and listen to support acts (I saw Suede as a support act, I saw Blur playing in front of 200 people, but I sold out on the Manic’s long before they did).
