I Love Bacon… But this is Weird
I get a nice bit of spam here on the site. As I said the other day, most of it is absolute garbage. I know that a mere week or so ago I said I got the spam comment to end them all, but I’ve got to tell you, what you’re about to see absolutely [...]
One Spam Comment to Rule Them All
Being a blog on the internet with open commenting I get a fair amount of spam comments. The various WordPress features and plugins I have generally do a good job of keeping out about 99.9% of these spam comments, but there is the occasional one that gets through. One such comment made it through earlier [...]
Evidently the New Facebook Sucks
About a month ago I explained why the new Facebook sucks. Well a few days ago Facebook decided to make the “new Facebook the only Facebook” and went ahead making a lot of people very, very angry. Based on the comments received on the original article, people seem to agree that there is no real [...]
End of the Journey
Well, here we are, the end of the journey. It’s been 31 days since I started the Blog-O-Rama Challenge and it’s finally come to an end. As crazy as it sounds, there was something posted every single day in the month of August. Sure, everything (and I do mean everything) was written at least a [...]
WordPress URL Shortcuts
I learned something today that might be beneficial to anyone who runs, or visits, websites running the very popular WordPress software package: it creates shortcuts. You see, I was attempting to type the url for my super secret stats page: http://www.justincox.com/mint/ but instead accidently typed in http://www.justincox.com/min. Instead of getting the 404 error, I was [...]
An Award and an Answer
The other day I noticed that fellow blogger and Twitterer Oh My Seven decided that I deserved this sweet little token of appreciation:
Yeah, it’s pretty cool. Now, after reading her blog post a second time — it was all about me the first time — I realized that Seven had given it to three bloggers [...]
August Blog-O-Rama Halfway Point
Two weeks ago I started the Blog-O-Rama Challenge. So far I’ve actually been able to post some form of new content every single day. Granted, all of it is written a few days prior to it actually posting, but it’s still daily content. In fact, before the Blog-O-Rama began it took nearly three months to [...]
Gravatars are Cool
You might be wondering what the little graphics are next to the various comments here on the blog. Some people have weird images and others have pictures of themselves — which are equally weird. My site, along with a large number of other blogs on the interwebs, support Gravatars. According to their site, Gravatars are [...]
August Blog-o-Rama!
If you follow this site with any amount of consistency then you know the one thing this site lacks is consistency. I’m kind of a slacker when it comes to blogging and only post stuff when things strike me. The Celebrity Playlist was the first time I had ever even thought about using WordPress’ scheduling [...]
Summertime… and the living’s easy!
Yesterday was Memorial Day and while it’s a day where we take time out to remember those who have given their life in service of this country, it also is a day that signifies the start of summer — unofficially of course. When I was in school Memorial Day meant that school was already out [...]
