Mike Nolet of AppNexus started a 2-part webinar on scaling their advertising business and I am glad I followed the first part (and I will definitely be there for the 2nd part!) as some interesting things came out of that. (As a note, for those who are interested, Mike has more details on internet advertising […]

WassUp for WordPress
It’s not often I big up WordPress plugins or extensions, but this one caught my eye: WassUp. I’ve just installed it on my blog a couple of days ago and I am utterly impressed with what this little thing can do! I have got access to my website stats aggregated via awstats and webalizer, however, […]
Quality Job Targeting on LinkedIn
Today seems to be my “funny things I see on the web” day — I just logged into LinkedIn to be targeted in the job section with an interesting one: a job offer from Vibrant Media (who I worked for till a few years ago): If that job is based on my previous jobs […]
Joe Bloggs and Google
So I keep being amazed every day by top search results in Google — obviously generated by Joe (Dumbass) Bloggs 🙂 This occurred to me today when I was trying to search for running certain scripts in bash (Linux) and I ended up typing just “how to r” — and this is what good ole’ […]
Server Migration
Some of you might have noticed, some might not, but I finally got off my arse to migrate my liviutudor.com domain to a proper hosting package. Gone are the days where I had 2 servers stuck under my desk at home — as much as I had fun X11-ing into my Linux boxes and adding […]
Klout Report: I like my beer :)
I had doubts in the past about whether my consumption of beer is getting worrying or not. I always managed to tell myself though that “it’s ok, nothing to worry about”. Until today, when out of curiosity I have checked out my Klout report — based from what I could tell on my Twittering. Well […]
Complicated? Noooooooo!
This is (part of) the Cognitive Match in one of our standard design and planning meetings today. Nothing spectacular, but it’s been a while I thought since I’ve last shared some of the insights into how we do things over here. You reckon that diagram we’re all working on looks complicated? Nooooooo! That’s simple shit […]
Sequel Pro Bundles: Copy As HTML, Copy As Wiki Table, Copy as CSV
Some of you might know that I’ve moved to Mac recently (no comment!) — as such I had to ditch the HeidiSQL client for MySQL (booo! why does it only run on Windows????) and had to figure out another handy MySQL client which works on Mac OS X. You can of course use the MySQL […]
(More) Idiotic Recruitment
I’ve posted before about idiotic recruitment and having had some time to organise (read delete) some of my LinkedIn emails I came across this old one. So I decided that I’m going to start posting here every single bit of idiotic recruitment emails I’m getting — if there are people occasionally reading this then they’ll […]
Java vs JavaScript?
The title of this post was intentionally chosen to raise some eyebrows – after all we all know that in most cases (I’m taking the likes of Rhino out of the equation, same for applets) the former resides on the server side while the latter is used as a client-side language. So why would someone […]
