It was just brought to my attention that my company’s homepage was pointing to the wrong app. This has happened a few times since I’ve switched to EngineYard. They don’t include www aliases in the default nginx configuration so you have to add them with a keep.domain.conf file. I recently migrated my company site to a new instance and left the default configuration. When I checked to make sure the app was setup on the new instance properly, http://onomojo.com , it worked fine and I didn’t think anything of it. Of course, I didn’t test http://www.onomojo.com which ended up pointing to an app that is still in the early phases of development since I didn’t customize the nginx config. What a huge goof. No wonder I’m getting mixed responses from potential new work lately. If you’re reading this and you saw the awkward half broken site with the test video please revisit the site again.

I was just browsing my Google Analytics data today when I noticed the map of Florida looked really weird. Growing up in Florida I knew this was obviously incorrect so I took a screenshot.

And here is what Florida is supposed to look like.

Take a look at the bottom past Miami near the Keys. The Google map has no land there at all and the shape is all wrong. It looks like someone took a big bite out of south Florida. Maybe they’re just predicting water levels to rise soon and just saving themselves the extra effort of redoing their map after that happens. A bit of proactive thinking perhaps or completely obvious blunder.

I like to do my part to save the planet and this is just one way in which Onomojo is trying to help. We’ve just recently finished a non-profit site promoting No Plastic Day which is on June 8, 2010. So far we’ve got a decent amount of people joining the event and I’m asking for your help in promoting it further. We all need to do our part to save the planet. One day without disposable plastics isn’t much to ask. Join us and together we can create a better future.
