Back in 2004, I signed up my old site “hm2k.org” to Google AdSense as an attempt to raise funds for my work.
It’s content was mainly made up of what I was researching around that time, including a few controversial topics such as hacking, trojans and warez distribution. (Oh the joys of being under 18, or at least I was at time of original creation).
I signed up for Twitter quite some months ago, but have yet really found myself using it.
I’m sure some of you are wondering what twitter actually is. The best way to describe it is a way to tell people you know what you’re up to. It fills the gap between emails and blogs.
This way, your friends can find out what you’re up to without having to actually ask you, and only if they’re interested.
Quite a novel idea. Read the rest of this entry »
As a web developer my main tool is my text editor, which I use for pretty much EVERYTHING from coding HTML, to PHP to perl. A text editor is an essential part of my day-to-day life.
Meaning I need a text editor that I does what I want, the way I want it.
Today I received the following email from [email protected]…

I’ve been using phpBBv2 for a long while now, on quite a few sites for one reason and another. I like phpBB because it’s simple to use, for both users and admin. Things like the “ego search” are features I wouldn’t want to live without.
phpBBv2 was great, things like the templates, and installing mods was much to be desired, however workarounds appeared and we got used to dealing with them.
Upon the announcement that phpBB3 was coming out I got excited. Now usually I wait until the first bug fix release comes out before I start using the product, however I wanted to start a new forum, so instead of installing phpBB2 I decided to try phpBB3
This is what I found…
One thing wordpress has always lacked is the ability to handle tabular data. This is not because it can’t handle it, after all it’s only HTML, but the problem is that by default the setup does NOT include tablecontrols in it’s TinyMCE setup.
Here’s what you need to do to get table controls added into WordPress’s TinyMCE…
I’m currently using a computer that has the “Remote Desktop Connection” icon missing, in fact the whole of the “Communications” directory is missing! Oh no… Never fear…
So you’ve got a shop, or perhaps a new product range and you want to build a website so you can sell online.
What you need is some kind of web based eCommerce shopping cart system, the question is which?
I decided to build a short list of web based eCommerce shopping cart software out there.
The scenario is this, you have a client who wants an eCommerce solution, they are paying you, but not nearly enough, you’re doing this as more of a favour. You started to develop a solution for them, but felt their feedback wasn’t sufficient which would ultimately lead to missing things out, and it probably wasn’t worth it anyway. What is needed is a base platform to build upon.
The rules are this, it must be open source, and it must work out of the box.
Please remember, this is based purely on my options, by all means, take them on board, and form your own options.
When trying to create a unique company name for your business, I found that there was a three step approach to creating a unique name.
When I was developing a new company name, I created about 20 using this method, each time I would follow the steps through to create a name that was appropriate, unique and usable.
