Trying imified

Trying http://imified.com/, seems to be an awesome service… In fact, I’m writing this blogpost through it

edit: Seem to not quite have worked… Maybe it converts to links automatically, more experimentation needed.

Eeek

I was just getting ready to release anti-rickroll script when firefox profile got corrupted, I deleted it and poof, my anti-rickroll script gone

I’ll create a replacement as soon as I’m not so busy. I can remember most of the code and fundamentals of how it worked, so shouldn’t take too long just got exams in the way…

Did anyone remind me????

I haven’t posted of late…, I mean 15 days… I thought I asked you to remind me

Anyway, back at uni. Still unsure on whether to release anti-rickroll script…

Anti-RickRoll

ewanm89 — Mon, 14 Apr 2008 15:52:06 +0000

I’m fed up of these youtube rickrolls, so I’ve made a nice little greasemonkey script to do this instead.

Unfortunately if I upload script people will know how to rickroll me, and I don’t want that… So I have a bit of a dilemma…

CLI Top Ten

To help my part in the current wave amongst Linux bloggers: “cat ~/.histfile|awk ‘{a[$1]++ } END{for(i in a){print a[i] ” ” i}}’|sort -rn|head” (yes I use zsh) gives:

408 sudo
143 vim
137 ssh
137 ls
135 cd
86 dmesg
52 make
43 pkill
37 ps
32 plog

So I do far too much as root… too much in vim and too much on other computers, and why do I keep using cd?

Ubuntu???

Due to the fact I can’t use gentoo (yet?) at uni due to use of certain, proprietary, protocols.

I have been running Ubuntu Hardy Heron (8.04) Development, and to show support (it is better than any RPM based system) I have added the countdown to my blog.

Interesting :/

Seems as though yahoo have over taken google in finding some inlinks to site from a few others… still only first page. 8-|

Finally

ewanm89 — Thu, 27 Mar 2008 14:16:34 +0000

Well, google have managed to index (and cache) the main page of my site.

Now google, being you have a nice XML formated file telling you the rest, could you please index them too? pretty please?

Well, they’re doing better than yahoo, MS and ask.

Search Engines

ewanm89 — Mon, 24 Mar 2008 10:18:12 +0000

I hereby declare all search engines crap, google, yahoo, MS Live serach and ask have all been told about my lovely blog…

How many have indexed it? None!!!

They all have the sitemap, they know the URLs, the rodots.txt only points to sitmap, it’s linked on my slashdot account, on several forums, two planets and a blogroll… If anyone has any ideas as to why I’m having this problem, please let me know?
