Running redis using upstart on Ubuntu

I've been trying to understand how to setup systems from the ground up on Ubuntu. I just installed redis onto the box and here's how I did it and some things to look out for.

To install:

Use the function 'TagColour' to create a 6 character hex code for a colour that isn't too bright (ie, shows up against white) for any input string. Or, supply an existing colour name (red, blue, green etc) and get it back as a usable code.
<?php
function TagColour($name){
$colours = array('red', 'blue', 'green', 'black', 'brown', 'cyan', 'gold', 'yellow', 'grey', 'gray', 'indigo', 'lime', 'navy', 'yellow', 'orange');
if(in_array(strtolower($name), $colours)){
return strtolower($name);
}
$hex = substr(md5($name), 1, 6);
$intensity = (HexIntensity($hex) / 255) * 100;
$i=0;
while(($intensity > 70) && ($i<10)){

A way to turn your Dopplr trip feed into a php array of place, start and end timestamps, and lat/lon coordinates. Ugly coding, but it works.
<?php
$url = "YOUR_DOPPLR_FEED_URL"; //Available from http://www.dopplr.com/account - "Atom feed of all your trips"
//-------
$old = array('xmlns=', 'gml:', 'georss:', 'gd:'); //super hack for lack of proper namespace support
$new = array('ns=', 'gml-', 'georss-', 'gd-');
$xml = new SimpleXMLElement(str_replace($old, $new, file_get_contents($url)));
