 | I'm really liking the Google custom search engine, and will be tinkering with it today.  |
| | Well it's official ... I may be a couple of days late, but hey, I'm not a news geek ... [search]Internet Explorer 7[/search] is out of beta and ready to be downloaded to a computer near you! Just check out: [URL]http://www.microsoft.com/windows/ie/downloads/default.mspx[/URL] |
| | I currently use my XBox 360 as my DVD player, but I heard that the Nintendo Wii (or was it a different next generation gaming console) will include blu-ray or something? Not sure ... I'm waiting for Nintendo.  |
| | Wikimedia, the wiki application which powers Wikipedia, is open source AFAIK. It can be downloaded here: [URL]http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/MediaWiki[/URL] |
 | I'm afraid I have to disagree with you. I am one of those ultra CSS advocates. The freedom of keeping style and content entirely separate entities! To be able to change the whole look and design by just changing the CSS. Plus it makes for better crawlability by search engines, …  |
| | While I don't think I will be using this, the "Why you should've used Browsar" stories are just HILARIOUS ... [URL]http://www.browzar.com/stories/index.html[/URL] |

| | Yup :) And there are targeted clouds when you view a tag's entries. |
| | |
| | What does it mean to "dogfood" something? |
| | I have been an avid AdSense member since its inception, and I was just about to send you a PM saying "What are you talking about? This isn't true!" But whoa, you surprised me and definitely proved me wrong. Very nifty! |
| | Oh, this makes me feel good about just buying a workstation from them. |
| | You guys can only say that because you don't meet the requirements ;) I bet if you were fluent in Russian and actually had a good shot, you wouldn't be so quick at applying. |
| | |
 | I know it's not a practical alternative for someone with a PC in need of an OS, but for new buyers, perhaps a mac? Mac OS X has unix under the hood power, you can recompile nearly all open source *nix apps, and there are still real commercial suites for … |
| | I would like to formally announce the first of many upcoming DaniWeb member competitions. The prize for this first competition is valued at $250! So what do you have to do? Just blog!! Get your voice heard! I promise you that you'll be surprised by how many people out there … |
| | The computer I just bought is enough of a supercomputer for me :) I'm in seventh heaven right now as I just set it up yesterday morning, and spend most of the afternoon and evening migrating everything over and restructuring my network. With that said ... this supercomputer isn't THAT … |
| | Interesting ... |
| | Well, I just got myself through a major disaster. A couple of days ago, vBulletin, the forum system which powers the core of DaniWeb, released a shiny new version, vB 3.6. Every day since, they've been announcing new features - many of which look just awesome! This afternoon, they finally … |
| | I remember JPEG2000. I also remember my computer science professor saying that it was the same compression algorithm as JPEG, with the only advantage being more efficient and streamlined code. |
| | What I find interesting is that Google has a double standard. While the typical AdWords user only semi-recently received the option to use .gif ads in addition to standard text links, Flash campaigns for high profile sites have been rotated in AdSense for awhile now. And now, of course, they're …  |
| | I've heard rumors of this coming for awhile, but I finally saw it while browsing DaniWeb just a couple of minutes ago. A box ad that I run with a white background, which usually displays four ads, now displays three. The extra room is reserved for some text links with … |
| | Not very long ago, I went to the Verizon store to buy a new cellphone and I went home with a PDA. I chronicled my day's experience @ this thread: [URL="http://www.daniweb.com/techtalkforums/thread38380.html"]http://www.daniweb.com/techtalkforums/thread38380.html[/URL] |
| | tgreer, you say you're "certainly not going to dumb-down my development projects because of a fault in a search engine." What if you are running a corporate site where the difference between search engine rankings and how well-indexed in Google you are means having your head served on a silver … |
| | :eek: Eeek. Does anyone know if the flaws in the linux kernel are being mirrored by other *nix kernels, such as the one that powers Mac OS X, for instance? Mixing open source and proprietary systems is always a dangerous combination.  |
| | It seems that browser security is mirroring OS security in that the least popular is the most secure, probably more than not because fewer people care enough to exploit its vulnerabilities. I have to admit, I am a long time IE fan for Windows. I haven't tried IE7 yet because …  |
| | Two of the largest webhosting companies around, [URL="http://www.ev1servers.com/"]www.ev1servers.com[/URL] (formerly RackShack) and The Planet ([URL="http://www.theplanet.com/"]www.theplanet.com[/URL]) have announced a merger today. The merger is a result of both being bought out by investment company GI Partners. As of right now, things are still in flux, and the only change to happen is … |
| | That's what I do. I have CAT6 cable (gigabit switch) running around my room and use wireless just for my laptop or for when friends bring their lappies over. |
 | That's just crazy! When I first started reading this blog entry, I was expecting for you to send me to some hacker's website - not an official Apple site! |
| | I've been out of the linux loop for so long, it almost makes me want to set that linux box of mine back up. But, alas, I have come to terms with the fact that OS X happily performs al of my *nix needs and another box and monitor in …  |
| | I just haven't been able to get a good night's sleep lately. On a positive note, that has left a lot of time for me to devote extra time to DaniWeb. I've moved a couple things around, changed a couple other things, and am just hoping that everyone can get …  |
| | It sounds awesome, Christian. I still think my first generation G5 tower is great. Enjoy it! You deserve it.  |
| | While working on the new DaniWeb Event Calendar feature, I did a Google search regarding the vBulletin built-in calendar feature. Built right into the search engine results pages was the statement: In response to a complaint we received under the US Digital Millennium Copyright Act, we have removed 1 result(s) … |
| | For those of you webmasters out there who are running Google Analytics ([URL]http://www.google.com/analytics[/URL]) then you can welcome a new feature ... site overlay. It's a feature that so far I have only seen in paid analytics software, so it's definitely a more than welcome addition. Google Analytics logs pageviews to …  |
| | If you're in the SEO industry, most likely you're familiar with the Search Engine Roundtable at [url]www.seroundtable.com[/url], a blog / feed of all of the webmaster forums around. However, I just clicked on the "Forums" tab tonight to find my familiar list of other webmaster forums gone. In its place … |
| | What? Seriously? an Intel-based iBook by January?? |
| | Aussies were never able to buy iTunes songs before now? That doesn't seem right? |
| | Two designs ago we had one that lasted for years ... these last two, I was getting some criticisms right from the start, and I was never 100% satisfied with them. This one I am :) I think this one will be here to stay for a very, very long … |
| | I just went to WebmasterWorld and noticed that ... well ... it no longer exists? It looks as if it is now [url]http://www.searchengineworld.com/[/url] although I'm still a little confused. There are only a very few forums. Was this a merger? Hmm ...  |
| | Gah! I own the Treo 700W, Palm's first Windows Mobile device, and I'm very happy with it. I think it was a good move on Palm's part - they realize that Windows Mobile has a huge following, and they are giving users a choice. Palm hardware with Windows software. They … |
| | Re: What is a Wiki? Wikis are NOT used to edit single documents, such as reports. In addition, they are not used to handle a relatively small collection of documents. Rather, they are used to handle large collections of data. The reason for this is because there are two criteria for wikis. The first is … |
| | My friend Darren from Google just informed me a couple of minutes ago that Google Notifier is out in beta ... for the mac! You can check it out at: [url]http://toolbar.google.com/gmail-helper/index?promo=gdl-en[/url] Now comes the time when I thank Darren for considering the fact that I'm a mac girl and messaging … |
| | Talk is cheap, or so they say. At least it is with Google Talk beta ... Google's new IM /voice client! You can check it out at [url]www.google.com/talk/[/url] - I have yet to try it but I'm going to go ahead and download it right now. It seems like this … |
| | Re: New Windows Bug Is it just me or is this related to Danny's CNN blog entry? [url]http://www.daniweb.com/blogs/entry313.html[/url] Gahh, benna posted at the same time as me! :) |
| | ValueClick has recently announced plans to acquire a competing advertising network, FastClick. ValueClick currently owns three properties: PriceRunner, an online price comparison service, Commission Junction (CJ), an affiliate network, and Mediaplex, an ad serving technology. FastClick would become a fourth subsidiary of the publically traded company. According to Aaron, DaniWeb's … |
 | I agree this blog entry does seem a lot like an ad. Danny's done one too many PRs in his lifetime. However, I am more interested in the semi-recent acquisition and merger between Adobe and Macromedia - now THAT is one powerful combination! |
| | Keep up with the times, Christian! :) hehe Longhorn, which recently made its public debut, (warez betas currently available, while legit betas are available to a select few) has now been dubbed Vista. Screenshots available on the web. See previous blogs about this. :) |
| | Today, Yahoo! introduced their new Publisher Network, a "new self-serve platform that will provide small- and medium-sized web publishers with easy access to yahoo! advertising and content." In other words, it's a direct alternative to Google AdSense. The program, which the webmaster community initially caught wind of nearly a year … |
| | LOL! :) |
| | Hey there everyone. Long time no post... and that's because I just went out and bought The Sims 2 the other day, and I just have to say how much [b]I love it![/b] I'm not a gamer by any means. The only games I really ever play are simulations ... … |
The End.
