I am currently exploring e-mail certificates again in the wake of Thawte ending the Web of Trust. E-mail certificates are useful for two reasons. They provide for digital signatures and encryption.
Free Money
My mom generally regards me as having poor financial management. Whether that is true is in the eye of the beholder. Part of what I have done in getting where I am financially is to take advantage of opportunities to get things for free.
Broken Link Reporting
In the prior incarnation of my site, I had a 404 handler that reported broken links to me so that I can set up an appropriate redirection to the intended content. Until today, that functionality was missing in WordPress. However, I found a plugin that brings that functionality to WordPress.
Hope
Tonight, I watched The Astronaut Farmer. On the surface, the movie is about a man building a rocket and going to space. But with any depth beyond that surface, the movie is about hope and not giving up on it.
Now with CDN Goodness
Portions of the site now come through the Coral CDN. That should ehlp the page load faster.
Quieter Updating
Friendship
Over the past several weeks, I have been working at a full time job on the other side of the city. When you add the commuting time to the time at work, I am gone for about eleven hours of the day. When I return home, I can feel tired and just want to lay down. Something I have missed in this though is friendship.
Deadlocks in Internet Explorer
I have been encountering deadlocks in Internet Explorer according to the Windows 7 Resource Monitor. More than likely, this is related to some sort of extension that I added recently that is not written correctly. Anyhow, I will be receiving Windows 7 Ultimate soon and will be reinstalling so it probably isn’t worth diving too much into debugging what is going on. The Analyze Wait Chain functionality is nice though for determining why a program is not responding.
A third and hopefully last test
This is a test using a different plugin that updates social network statuses through Ping.fm. This plugin seems like a keeper for now.
Second Test
This is a second test of a Facebook notifier plugin. I decided I did not like this plugin.
