Yesterday afternoon we went on a team field trip to Deluxe facilities in Burbank. It was educational.
Deluxe does the encoding for our trailers, and VOD stuff for iTunes, Amazon, Walmart etc. During our tour we visited the 'vault' where they keep all the media. I found on a shelf near the door the Stargate Atlantis episode "McKay And Mrs. Miller" on tape.. sadly I was being watched at the time (probably cos I oooooh'd too loudly) otherwise I would have snagged it (maybe not.. but I would have liked to!).
Considering going to London next week with my friend Deb, it's only $1500/person flight + hotel.

New mini CM
I have been tasked to create a mini CM. Basically it's just to add new pieces to create a monthly email. I'm creating the tables in DB Designer 4 (even though I have Visio Professional now.. I can't seem to stop using the freeware one). The design is very simple, text fields, char fields, is_active, order for the pieces. A master table which has each month and it's pieces in it.
The moderately interesting thing about this task is that I need to generate two versions. One which will be emailed to a subscriber list, and another to remain on the site with forms to request more info and links to trailers which actually work. The links to trailers on the email only link back to the links from the one on the site. Does that make sense? Oh well.. babbling again!
Another task I'm currently working on is sweepstakes code. I'm not going to cover that here, simply because I'm just going to reuse code I've written for use on the Stargate site.
On my slate for this week:

On my slate for this week:
- Setting up http cache for a new site under Akamai
- Blue Hornet API syncronization
- Updates for the tools for all sites
- Adserver config (openads is VERY cool!)
- Redesign of the main database for MGM.com
