Googling for the Juicy Stuff
Check out Google a Dream come true (otherwise known as WATCH WHAT YOU PUBLISH ON THE WORLD WIDE WEB!!!) Got to the honey page that linked to the paper above via search: intitle: “Index+of..etc” + passwd from http://johnny.ihackstuff.com/index.php?module=prodreviews via Google search for: googledorks via MSNBC via Slashdot. I’ve seen this before (Google does, after all,…

Done with EST
Very good book, not too long, not too short. I continue to be impressed with Cory’s work and attitude. I think we’re both on the same wavelength. Time for some work. Laptop -> Winamp -> Been Playing 553 Minutes -> Turn up volume on stereo to hear music -> Time to switch music -> D…

I’m in the PST Tribe, I think…
My internal clock seems to be set at somewhere a couple hundred miles off the Pacific coast (towards Hawaii) as far as awake / sleep cycles go. But I’m in St. Louis. Cory’s new book really gets it right. I really like his work. 🙂 Over halfway through the book, reading it on my phone.…

Cory Doctorow’s new book is now available!
Cory Doctorow just released his newest novel, Eastern Standard Tribe. He’s made it available again as a free download (already got mine in Plucker format for my Samsung i330 Palm/phone.) I read Down and Out in the Magic Kingdom when it came out and enjoyed it quite a bit. I think Cory continues to set…

Oh well, never got around to doing the PC-IE compatible transparent backgrounds. I may still submit if we begin…

Working Music and Productivity
Listening to Radio Paradise right now, working on freelance projects. The latest is a web site for First Church Christ, Scientist in Hayward California, the church I attended growing up. Got the first layout finished and sent to the person in charge of leading the commitee for the project. I’ve noticed an interesting correlation between…

Disapointing ads for Superbowl
The ads were pretty disappointing for the Superbowl this year. The game was alright, but we didn’t see any ads that really pushed any boundaries. Some funny ones, but nothing groundbreaking. Oh well. Seems to reflect the general state of the nation / economy — more in conservative mode than in heady progress. Link to…

Changed background for the skin
Changed the background for the skin to another picture. So far I’m liking the big background pic w/ the text on top and translucent pngs. It would be cool to integrate a Gallery function to auto select a picture and “set as background” for the blog. Shouldn’t be too hard to implement. Link to share…

Howto: iptables + SSL + Apache 2
It took a bit of searching to finally figure out the right process for getting SSL running properly for Apache. I’ve used it before, of course, but hadn’t personally set it up myself yet. Here is how to take a stock Red Hat 9 installation that has been updated with the latest patches and allow…
