As many of you know in my “free” time I manage, direct, and write code for a small company called txtMovieClub.com. It’s a pretty neat idea where we notify our subscribers of up coming movie screenings via SMS messaging.
One of the aspects to the project involves using google maps. Now since the project is written in php and uses symfony (which is flippin’ awesome!) I checked out phoogle. I’ll say this… it’s a good start and I like where Justin was going with it. It’s sexy, it’s abstract, neat. Unfortunately it just didn’t meet the needs for the page I was working on.
I decided to take a different approach. I wanted the map to be AJAX driven. If I wanted to modify the location I didn’t want to have to reload the map, I just wanted the map to clear its markers and recenter.
A particular project I’m currently working on involves the ITU’s V.150.1 specification and a VoIP product. It’s pretty neat. We’re taking something like modem data and using IP to transmit the data.
V.150.1 is one of those protocols that rides on top of UDP. It’s some times referred to as Modem Relay over IP or MoIP. In this scenario it’s up to the end devices transmitting the data to maintain continuity and repetition. V.150 creates the transport using State Signaling Events (SSE) and the SPRT transport layer.
Word press apparently has its limitations when showing code. At least with my hosting service.
If you’re using libperl++ and you’ve run into headaches or you’ve come up with improvements, let me know.
