Web Programming

Years ago I started programming in ASP (Active Server Pages). This was a great language and was fairly easy to migrate into. However, the “cost of inclusion” was rather high as it is a Microsoft language and required (of course) that you be hosted on a Microsoft platform server. Then Microsoft decided to upgrade ASP [...]


Wordpress Excerpt Plugin

I created this little plugin for my own use, and after reading today’s post over at HackWordPress.com it reminded me that Garry Conn had asked me if I was going to publish it, so here it is.
I like to use the the_excerpt() instead of the_content() in several places on a blog. However, I did not [...]


Wordpress XML Parsing Error

No sooner did I write the post about troubleshooting I came across a Wordpress error that took way more time to solve than I expected.
One thing I know as a programmer is that every single character in a file is critical. I can not even guess how many times a simple question mark or apostrophe [...]


Learn to Troubleshoot

Over the last 20 years I have probably made more money from troubleshooting than anything else. Troubleshooting is the key to doing any type of repair or maintenance work, in any field.
In most cases software is developed to solve problems. Some problems are just to increase productivity or make a process easier, but solving a [...]


Wordpress Plugin RSS

During my Blog reading this morning I came across a post at Garry Conn dot com about increasing comments using your RSS Feed. This was right after I had watched a video at ShoeMoney.com about “What is your edge?”
The combination of these 2 posts inspired me to write a Wordpress Plugin today to add Comments [...]


Dynamic Pages

Based on all the email and comments about dynamic pages I thought I would take this opportunity to do a video on the subject. This video covers the basics of what Dynamic pages are and how I put them together. If you would like more information just drop me a comment.


RSS Autodiscover

As a typical programmer I sometimes look more at the code than I do the content.
With that being said I have noticed a lot of websites that have their RSS Autodiscover tag pointing to a feed that is different from what they advertise as their RSS subscription to readers. Hopefully this video will help identify [...]


Gmail Filters Video

Last week I produced my first video for Garry Conn about Yahoo Pipes. Garry did a great job of posting the video and I really appreciate his help and support.
During this process I discovered how much I enjoyed video production and I have decided to do some more. Here is my next video which was [...]


Blogging, Programming and Making Money Online

Those are the top 3 things on my “to do” list these days. Of course that is in my spare time, between a full time job, part time job and family.
With a little success I have had in the last year I was able to drop the part time job, and I am so happy [...]


Images added to Google AJAX Search API

This morning, we are announcing Image Search in the API. Image Search is just as easy to use as all of [...]


Google BlogBar

I have installed a Google BlogBar at the top of the page.
I set this BlogBar up using the BlogBar Wizard and did not modify any of the code. For now I used “CyberCoder” as the only keyword. It will rotate through the most relevant blog posts it finds in Google Blogsearch.
The Google AJAX Search API [...]


Google Groups

Seems I spend more time on Google Groups than I thought. Most of this activity is within the Google AJAX Search API, but there are a few posts scattered across some other topics too.


Welcome

Welcome to my online world.
I can not say exactly where I plan this blog to go. I have started at least 10 other blogs and have been all over the map on subject matter.
The fact is that I am an online junkie. I spend the majority of any free time I have surfing, blogging, hacking, [...]


Wordpress Duplicate Content

One of the problems with Wordpress is that it creates a lot of duplicate content, and there have been a lot of conversations on whether search engines, especially Google penalize you for duplicate content. It seems that it is not a penalty but a filter.
If you create a standard Wordpress site you will have same [...]

The Unix environment and the client server program model were essential elements in the development of the Internet and the reshaping of computing as centered in networks rather than in individual computers. UNIX represents the programming interface for both instruction and data. Presentation made on desktop is quite splen

Zune Doom


GEEK WARNING: The following post contains computer code. non-geeks are invited to pass on to the next post. You have been warned! On the 31st December every 30G Zune in the world died a horrible death.  Fortunately, it was only temporary problem due to faulty code which Microsoft has now fixed. Yesterday, they released the code where the fault lay. I’m going to get a bit geeky here and talk about the programming, because it says a couple of things about Microsoft that concern me.
