Enable a DNS server that sends this hosts IP when reader requests server address.

Google Dictionary

Scribefire
As i mentioned this plugin for firefox in one of my old post. It is a very handy plugin for bloggers, the plugin opens on a new tab and can manage several types of blog platforms, no need to enter API key , just your username and password (at least for wordpress). Then you’re all set to blog without entering your admin control panel. It has all basic features like formatting, delete posts, change permalinks, categories and tags. One thing that annoys me is that picture formatting is not available.
Feedly
Is a news feed reader, feedly takes all the feeds from google reader and presents it in a magazine style layout. It is definitely a new way to browse the feeds and interact with it. Sharing , saving to read , rating and most of functions from google reader that i did not know it existed is nicely laid out and invites the reader to use them.
Some websites disables right clicking on the site to protect the site content of being copied.
To bypass this, just turn off the javascript setting in your browser , and reload the webpage. The block is gone , but dont forget to turn javascript on again after that.
WordPress and WordPress MU have merged, allowing the management of multiple sites (called Multisite) from one WordPress installation.
New default theme “Twenty Ten” takes full advantage of the current features of WordPress.
New Custom Menu Management feature, allows creation of custom menus combining posts, pages, categories, tags, and links for use in theme menus or widgets.
Don’t you just hate it when you have purchased an ebook and it is protected with DRM. If you dont know what DRM is, it means you cannot print pages from the book , cannot copy text and cant open the file with a different computer.
There are alot of programs you can purchase out there that claim to be able to remove DRM but i don’t want to spend more money on something that is already mine.
So here is a hack i found to remove DRM protected pdf files / ebooks :
Google for ineptkey.pyw and ineptepub.pyw and put them into one directory (desktop). These files are python scripts and is basically a text file with .pyw ending in windows. If you cant find the .pyw file with google, just copy the script text and paste into a notepad file and rename it to the correct .pyw files.
Run (double click) ineptkey.pyw. It will find a key and write it to hard disk as “ADEPTKEY.DER ” in the same directory where ineptkey.pyw is.
Run ineptepub.pyw
A dialog windows with three parameters will pop up :
Key file ADEPTKEY.DER (filled automatically if the ADEPTKEY.DER-file and ineptepub.pyw reside in the same directory)
If not, click on the “…” button and select a file.
Input file
Click on the “…” button to choose your ebook. You’ll find it in “My Documents\My Digital Editions“.
If you just can’t find the ebook, open Adobe Digital Editions and find the path in the properties of the ebook.
Output file
Click on the “…” and enter a filename.
Open your newly created DRM-free pdf file with your favorite application (on whatever device you like ! YAY !!!
