phil ringnalda dot com: You got your.. eh, that’s overused. Now there is a Firefox plugin that call yagoohoogle. Kind of funny to see the search engines side-by-side.

Site Meter – Counter and Statistics Tracker. What the heck is going on with the site. We’ve been at a consistent 35,000 page views (there are some anomolies in Nov-Jan reporting because I broke the template but didn’t realize it). But this month, we are north of 50K views. Wow.

Learning Movable Type: Trackback Spam. Another example of how anything popular is going to get spammed. Trackbacks are now the disease for me. Instead of just shutting them off, they are at least moderated with MT-Moderate so they don’t appear, but they are still very annoying. A new one gets through every day and there […]

a-giâu: MT-Ban-Numeric-Entities. Very clever, this plug-in blogs HTML that uses numerics to disguise spam. Pretty smart. Another thing to load and also once again proves the value of having a platform on the open internet.

MT-Blacklist/Comment Spam Clearinghouse: New anti-spam plugins. Jay Allen notes that there are some great additional tools besides MT-Blacklist. Ones I have to load right away are: * “MT-Moderate”:http://jayseae.cxliv.org/moderate/. This moderates all trackbacks. I really need this. With this, I can turn TrackBacks back on!

This vulnerability allows a malicious user to send email through the application to any number of arbitrary users. Enough said. I enabled comment […]

Movable Type Publishing Platform: Movable Type 3.14 released. You’ll want to get this one, it fixes slow downs because of massive spam attacks. Sigh. Sign of the modern world.

Brad Choate: MT-Textile does that???. We use Textile 2.0 on this site. Still learning some of the amazing features. The float left and float right are great, but I still can’t get tables to work as well as with the first Textile. Textile(tm) drew a dark line by default, but this Textile 2 doesn’t seem […]

WordPress Download. It’s a MovableType world for me and I’m spending more time figuring out BitTorrent and Podcasting, but sometimes I’m tempted to switch to a different blog tool. WordPress is one of those at the top of the list. Maybe the next blog I do I’ll use it.

PodcastAlley.com — the place to find podcasts. A good set of reviews on podcasting software. The main ones seem to be “iPodder”:http://ipodder.sourceforge.net and “Doppler Radio”:http://dopplerradio.net. It also looks like there are literally hundreds of Podcasts. Most are nerdy topics like Slashdot. Perhaps the most interesting for those of us who care about music is “DownloadRadio.org”:http://downloadradio.org. […]
