Just hacked together a small Python script to automatically update Chromium on my Mac to the latest SVN revision. I wrote this around 2am, so don’t expect bells and whistles. You can download it here:

The script is public domain, meant to be run interactively and provided without any warranties or batteries. It may or may not do bad things to your house and your cat, but mostly it just updates Chromium.

I just wrote a munin plugin that graphs the number of rows in your MySQL databases. If you haven’t heard of Munin yet, check it out – it’s pretty awesome.

I just released version 1.0 of nagify, a new Python library and utility for displaying notifications about Nagios alerts.

The original purpose was to display Growl notifications for Nagios alerts, but nagify is designed to be very flexible and can be expanded to output notifications in pretty much any way.

Please report any bugs to the issue tracker at github.

Update: 1.0.1 is out, now also available via the Python Package Index.
