Last night, I finally was able to install the ‘underground’ pspsdk that allows people to write homebrew applications for the PSP. Of course, it requires that your PSP is still running the v1.5 firmware (until someone finds a way to hack the 2.+ firmware out there).
An interesting homebrew app I am very interested in is FileAssistant++. This has a nice UI perfect for Plutino integration ;-)….

Pluto … my upnp sdk got some setbacks a few weeks ago after I found out that a company had been using the name ‘pluto’ for their sdk. I wouldn’t care much but they are doing some sort of ‘UPnP’ like Home thing. What are the odds!

Of course, I found out right after I posted the request to host Pluto on SourceForge. So I had to withdraw it and come up with a better name. Don’t know if you know what CVS is but it’s a pain in the a*** to change file names once it’s on the server. So the requirement was to keep my filenames intact. They all start with PLT_ . The new name had to have these 3 letters in it.

I came up with 2 contenders: Platinum & Plutino. The latter one being a real name for the ‘little’ plutos orbiting around the earth seems to be a good analogy for the P2P world I am trying to build with my sdk.

Continuing my domain buying frenzy (whopping $8.95 a year), I found out that http://www.plutinosoft.com was available so I bought it. We’ll see what I do with that …

Don’t know what took me but yesterday I decided to buy the domain name http://www.plastoc.com. It’s the french slang for ‘plastic’. Although I don’t know what I am going to do with this, I figured it was pretty rare to get a 2 syllables 7 words domain name so I took it.
In french, someone would refer to that word about something that feels cheap and is about to break. Hmmm
