Today I decided to join stackoverflow.com, which requires you to login using OpenID.
It was pretty simple to get signed up with myopenid.com, but while I was on the stackoverflow login page I noticed a little message which I found interesting: Read the rest of this entry »
I had this issue today, I found that you need to deactivate the “Wordpress Automatic Upgrade” plugin as it’s included in the core of Wordpress now anyway.

OpenCart is an open source PHP-based e-commerce online shop website solution. Ideal for new or existing stores to start selling online.
OpenCart all began because (at the time) the leading open source e-commerce solution out there was not very good, to say the least.
As many of you may be aware there’s a lack of getmxrr() support in Windows, which dates back as far as 1999.
It’s not a major problem for me as an individual because I never use WIN32 PHP in production, but for development and for the purpose of wide distribution it can raise an issue.
Apparently the lack of support in win32 is due to the lack of “res_search” in “bindlib_w32″, I’m surprised this hasn’t been fixed already.

I’m getting fed up with my current IRC BNC software. At the moment I’m using psyBNC, which means I have to connect to it like you would an IRC server, then issue commands to that to tell it to connect to the IRC server of your choice.
I no longer need the features of psyBNC and decided that there must be a better way.
At first I started looking at other, more basic BNC software, but then worked out that they work in very much the same way as psyBNC in the fact that you have to first connect to it, then tell it where to connect to.
So I thought… What about a socks5 proxy?
In my job I have to manage lots of machines all over the place. Many of them are on windows.
I often find tracking IP addresses to be a difficult task if they do not have a static IP address.
So what can be done to keep track of an IP address?
I wasn’t going to write about this, but I liked the solution (application) so much I had to shout about it.
I was provided with a 30 day cd preview slideshow of wedding photos, and was asked very kindly to attempt to extract the photos from it so they could be viewed beyond the trial period.
