Nice 2005 to you all. Tis I’m too busy with my 2005 theme that I can’t write a longer post but I can say the fireworks around here wasn’t very spectacular. But hey, with all those deaths and disasters and all that was to be excpected. At least my theme is coming along very well …

RumGallery
I just started with RumGallery and it’s pretty much exactly what I was looking for. It integrates fully with the WordPress admin and the front-end template is easy enough to modify. The project is still in an early stage (v0.02) but it’s already very usable.
Comment
Here’s a follow up to the previous post. Some people may associate spam with e-mail but it’s a very real problem for a lot of interactive websites too. What happens is that spammers monitor lots of blogs, directories and pinging services and try to harvest as much comment links as possible. Then a spambot will …

Detecting
Steven Bey has published an article on how to detect a page refresh by the browser in ASP.NET. The idea is quite simple actually but that’s exactly what I like about it.
TinyKB
The TinyKB (working name) project is nearing completion. Soon, there’ll be a fully functioning, although pretty minimal, implementation of a new knowledge base system. OK, so I ripped some interface ideas from the guys at InstantASP but the whole system is rebuilt from the ground up. Please keep in mind though that the name is …
Simple
Usually when you want an object to have a simple interface to the outside world it means that your code inside (e.g. the naming, structure and readability of functions and persistence of data and such) can get pretty complicated. On the other hand, when your interface is extensive and exposes a lot of properties and …
Audio
Today at work someone asked if there was a program that could rip multiple tracks to a single audio file. After a quick google I found FreeRIP which, according to the feature list, seems to do the trick. This is especially convenient if you want to rip a mix or CD without pauses to a …
