Welcome to the KitzKikz website. I created this site mainly as an outlet for my projects. Feel free to browse, edit, comment, and add as you like (please be nice).

Safari Sogudi
Sogudi is an add-on for Apple's Safari Web Browser that allows you to visit and search your favorite sites using just a few simple keystrokes in the location bar instead of long and complex URLs. These shortcuts allow you to enter additional parameters that would not be possible with standard bookmarks. Sogudi comes loaded with several common shortcuts and more can be added by the user. µµMore info...µµ

Making Wine
I've always wanted to learn how to make wine. So I decided to start. This is my attempt to make some sense out of all the varied and confusing methods and equipment I've encountered.

No Frills Installer
I ended up writing a simple installer for Sogudi, because the Apple Installer wouldn't work and all third party installation packages were too cumbersome, expensive, and bloated. I provide the source code here.

While working with http://www.flickr.com to make my DeathAngel page, I had difficulty with their Organizr utility and Safari. So I, gasp, switched to IE for a moment. I had forgotten how mind numbingly slow IE was. It's a tribute to the Safari developers that I haven't had to resort to another browser for over two years.

I successfully installed OS X Tiger onto my Powerbook G3 Lombard, something that Apple's installer won't allow. Learn more at TigerLombard.

It seems the reported problems with Safari 1.2 were mistakes. The person(s) reinstalled Sogudi and all is now well. I've been using Sogudi 0.43, Safari 1.2, and Mac OS 10.3.2 together for several weeks without any troubles. For those of you waiting breathlessly for Sogudi 0.5, please have a little more patience. I have a full time IT job that takes precedence. However, I'm hoping to get something out to beta-testers this weekend.

13-Feb-2004

A new release of Sogudi was scheduled this week, but the release of version 1.2 of Safari will delay the new version of Sogudi while compatibility testing is done.

Sogudi and Javascript work together. See how.
