Okay, this is funny. When I configured my GMail account to send mail as my email address at my domain, it sent a confirmation email to the address I’d specified. That email address forwards everything to my GMail account.
After several minutes, the confirmation email hadn’t arrived. So I checked my server logs. Sure enough, it [...]

Wow, what a stormy issue this has become! The following was going to be a follow-up comment over on Andy Beard’s blog, but it got a little too long. Here’s my take on the issue:
I guess I see it a little differently. Let me see if I can explain in a way that at least [...]

If this list were worthy to be on itself, it’d just a be a list. But it takes laziness to be that bad, and I’m just not that lazy. Let me explain.
You’ve seen ‘em: “54 great call to action buttons”, “32 cool jQuery accordion menu scripts”, “79 great header graphics for inspirtion”, “15,327 free eCommerce [...]

I just sent an updated version of Lobster – my RSS feed reader to all CaRP users. This revision adds Twitter support — tweet directly from your feed reader.
Lobster automatically generates tweet text from the title and link from each RSS item. Edit it as desired, select which of your Twitter accounts to post it [...]

Yesterday, I decided it was high time to scratch an old itch, so I built myself an RSS feed reader. It uses CaRP Evolution’s MySQL plugin to store parsed RSS feed items in a database. I think this is the first time I’ve used that plugin for a real project.
My three biggest complaints about Google [...]

The other day, I ran into a situation where I needed to do case sensitive queries in MySQL. With a little Googling, I discovered that the keyword “binary” makes that possible, like this:
select foo_field from foo_table where binary foo_key=”foo value”
So I tried it out and it worked, but when querying a table with over a [...]

A few weeks ago, my wife and I decided it was time to cut our internet bill by switching away from Charter to a local wireless internet service provider named Internet USA. I figured it was a good time to reconsider our cable TV package too — we’d discussed switching to DirecTV in the [...]

For the most part, I love AWeber. But as I wrote last year, they’ve got a few really irritating problems. Here’s my latest gripe.
About a month ago, I deleted 11 follow-up messages from one of my autoresponder sequences — they weren’t converting, so I axed ‘em.
AWeber keeps track of the last follow-up message that was [...]

When Google Reader debuted, there was no question — it was as bad as all the other web-based feed readers. No way was I going to dump NetNewWire for it.
A few days ago, somebody (someone I follow on Twitter, I think — perhaps Michel Fortin?) commented about how they use Google Reader, so I gave [...]

I just checked the browser and screen resolution stats for www.geckotribe.com and wow, what a surprise!

Firefox is wiping the floor with IE on that domain! One of my other heavily trafficed domains reverses the picture, but another looks almost exactly the same as this.

As recently as January, I was still getting enough visitors at 800×600 [...]
