Where I show way too much love for some Javascript. These layouts, for instance: http://www.lyxia.org/blog/ http://demo.jauhari.net/ http://wp-themes.der-prinz.com/wyntonmagazine/ (already justified!) Courtesy of Anthony Jone’s blog, here is a quick overview of “ragged/ranged” paragraphs: Still with me? If only it was easy to integrate with WordPress! Turns out, it is. You can download it from the official plugin repository at http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/wp-sweet-justice/ But [...]

Also, ezEdit is very, very, very easy to install and use: You can add the CMS to your existing website; You can use it to mock-up updates to your site; If you are a web designer, you can work on updates with your clients in real-time; and this is without installing anything: simply use the bookmarklet. ezEdit works as either [...]

I am a huge fan of SuperGenPass. There are so many obvious reasons why it’s a great concept that I won’t bore you with a rehash of all of them. Unfortunately, in Google Chrome, SuperGenPass chokes on some pages. I do not blame Chrome for that: it’s for security reasons. I’ve patched the basic version of SuperGenPass so that it [...]

Ladies and gentlemen, gather ’round! The Great Panini is going to perform an incredible illusion before your very eyes! You will tell your grandchildren of this day and they will not believe you! Take pictures! The Great Panini will start with a pre-steam machines era CentOS 4 server. He will install two versions of Ruby and they will coexist peacefully! [...]

It is interesting that on the heels of IBM’s announcement that the Cell family is a dead-end, I get to learn of Zii’s offering — based on their allegedly violating the GPL. It’s all the more interesting that it seems that the trend, lately, has been to focus more on GPUs: since GPUs have evolved to provide such built-in power, [...]

It’s coming, with its usual mix of junk-no-one-cares-about and awesome applications you had no idea you needed and at-this-price-it’s-a-steal! Not to mention the join of scoring the mission-related apps, regardless of how — usually — good they are. Avid MacHeist fans alonzo and imfrog2002 have even created two countdown widgets to the official launch: or Note: Do not forget to [...]

It seems that tons of people have the same complaint: the WordPress application for iPhone does not discover their blog and, therefore, is of no use to them. The same goes for many desktop-based applications. I, too, spent quite a lot of time trying to figure that one out but now that I have succeeded, here is how I would [...]

A quick note about Clic!Dev: it is now possible, in the admin control panel, to select Setup Hacks > enable 24 hour users to add an extra information dialog to the footer of your hosted board’s main page. This will end up looking like so (but obviously adapted to whatever skins you are using): var wordpress_toolbar_urls = ["http:\/\/www.clicdev.com"];var wordpress_toolbar_url = [...]

Here comes S2ajax v1.0! And it was long overdue. Six months already since I posted S2ajax says “hi()” I can hardly believe it. What I think of as v1.0′s main feature is that it is now possible to simply export classes in PHP and these classes can be instantiated in JavaScript. Whenever these instances are modified through asynchronous method calls, [...]

Last night I was trying to setup a @mail server but the installer kept choking when attempting to connect to my local database. I am posting here my quick workaround in case you too, dear reader, get a dreaded “PDO” error message complaining about your attempt to “connect to unix://“ Here is I how I solved the issue for @mail: [...]
