Wired has a huge feature on Google this month aptly titled “Googlemania”:http://www.wired.com/wired/archive/12.03/google.html?pg=1&topic=&topic_set=. One piece focused on “Google’s PageRank feature”:http://www.wired.com/wired/archive/12.03/google.html?pg=7&topic=&topic_set= which is at the heart of all the comment spam abuse us bloggers have been dealing with lately.
I’m not too worried about comment spam anymore. I have over 1700 blacklisted URLs in my “MT-Blacklist [...]
Does this look like rain to you? If my pants are any indication, it’s a damn flood out there. While just walking to the bus both back sides of my pants were entirely soaked. By the time I got off the bus and into the office my entire pair of pants were [...]

Although the Clint Eastwood “movie of the same name”:http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0083943/ did in fact rule when I was 8 years old, I’m talking about the new version of the web browser formally named Phoenix and Firebird.

One of the down sides of having to rebuild the snapturtle server was the need to recreate all the SSL certificates used with SMTP and IMAP services.
