This one had me pulling my hairs off and going crazy trying to figure it out so I thought it deserves a space on my blog 🙂 While it’s what it looks like a small fix, it turned out to be a b**ch in terms of googling for an answer as whatever combination of search […]

HowAboutWe Firefox Add-on
Ok, so you might have seen the previous howaboutwe / Twitter project I spawned off the other day and blogged about here — and I thought since I’m not actively using howaboutwe anymore, but still found myself with a paid membership for a few more weeks, how about I (ahem! :D) play a bit more […]
Implications of Blocking 3rd Party Cookies?
Now that I wrote the previous post about blocking 3rd party cookies and the (famous) Firefox release which triggered my reaction, I keep thinking about where is the online world going from here. I know a few groups in the industry are working on various approaches but I’m constantly being followed by one idea which […]
Online Privacy and Blocking 3rd Party Cookies
OK, I’m arriving a bit late to the discussion about browsers beginning to block 3rd party cookies by default, however, I was on the fence of this initially. And more to the point, I thought this would be just a trend that will come and go — but it seems that I was rather wrong […]
Helper for Creating Firefox Extensions
I haven’t turned my attention to Firefox extensions pretty much since I left Vibrant Media — where I wrote a handful of extensions to help us with the IntelliTXT platform. That was about 4 years back — amazingly in all that time Firefox went from version 3.0 to about 26.0! As such I had to […]
Small App for Linking Twitter and HowAboutWe
OK so I know it’s geeky as you like, and to a certain degree pointless… however, for the sake of being a geek and using Twitter too much perhaps, I decided to give this a go, and it turned out into an app that I rather enjoyed playing with (as well as writing it of […]
Product Idea — A Bit More Animation in ShareThis?
Time for another idea for you — and I guess more to the point for the guys at ShareThis. (If you don’t know who they are, they are the company behind the sharing buttons at the end of each of my blog posts, which allows my visitors to share this onto major social / professional […]
(Small) Bug with Oracle’s HTML/JMX Interface
I posted before an article about how to use Oracle’s (well, Sun’s, since it was started really before the Oracle acquisition) HTML/JMX agent to monitor your apps via JMX here. For those of you who went ahead and decided to use that interface, you probably noticed a small (but rather annoying bug) in that component […]
Implementing Squirrel Mail Autocomplete Plugin under Mozilla Firefox
For the heavy SquirrelMail users, you are without a doubt using your address book a lot! (Unless you have a really good memory and can remember by heart any email address in your address book! Personally I can’t! 🙂 And if you do, you might have contemplated using the Autocomplete Plugin for SquirrelMail, which does […]
A Big Space in between Firefox and Internet Explorer
For those of you who tried to put together a “flatten” function cross browser to eliminate consecutive spaces and/or trim some text that is retrieved from the HTML page itself, you might have noticed that a simple regex of the kind /\s+/gm is simply not enough and occasionally Internet Explorer would still return a string […]
