Ping-o-Matic is now not only a HTML form-based service that you can use to notify multiple sites of your new weblog entry. This weblog entry let us in on the new ping URL http://rpc.pingomatic.com/ that you can use to replace the long list of URLs you're currently pinging everytime you make a new weblog entry. This means no more waiting for...

Yup that's it, no more hot-linking of images (and CSS files as well) on this site, please. Thanks to pippo's How can I prevent hot-linking images? post, any hot-link requests to this site will be redirected to this image below instead: I know there have been cases of legitimate hot-linking (at least in my view they are legitimate), such as from...

Edward Bateman wrote me last week to suggest an improvement to MT-Blacklist Updater. I then realised that if large numbers of users began to use your script, then Jay's server would be under extremely high load just around the hour of each day, and especially during specific US times. He then went on to suggest a tiny bit of code for how to...

Asa tried the recent Opera 7.5 release and wrote about it in his blog. I won't jump in and make a debate or express my opinion on his entry nor on the Opera die-hards' comments (in that same entry) because I'm too worn out to think. But I do think it is interesting to point out the debate for those of you who haven't seen one of these in the topic...

Before anyone jumps to the conclusion that I've fallen into torpor or crumbled to dust in Final Death, let me assure you that I will merely be away on a short trip for the purpose of getting away from Things That Suck™ (among other purposes). Will be back Wednesday evening (my time, CCT). If I'm not back by then, assume the worst.

Fresh graduate that I am, I have been submitting applications for quite a number of jobs, mostly revolving around the "web developer" and the "software developer" careers. Of course, I am always supplementing my income with web design and development work, and have always been on the lookout for freelance work. Sometimes I wonder about work, about...

BetaNews reports that SP2 Will Not Install on Pirated Copies of XP, contrary to what local (Singaporean) publication Computer Times reported earlier. Just when I was being amazed at how thoughtful Microsoft was for everyone of us Windows XP users, pirates and legitimate users alike. This (in the Computer Times article) made very, very good sense:...

Pardon the newsy (and awkward) title for this entry - it's hard trying to think up creative titles when that juice dries up. Anyway, this is more of a gratuitous, promotional linking entry than a real blog entry (although some of you will not be unaccustomed to blogs that are full-on linkblogs - and I'm not talking about side link-blogs). So yeah,...
