I’ve only just discovered ICanHaz.js I have to admit and as such I’m a bit of a moron when it comes to using it I guess. Still though, I felt the need to write up on this as I’ve been digging around the net for a while and the only resource helpful that I found […]

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 […]
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 […]
Of Java and Assembler
The title would no doubt puzzle quite a few of you — after all I’m putting in the same sentence a low-level, processor-specific language (for no better term for “assembler” — I know, I know, I know, “it’s not really a language”, right?) with a rather high-level, even platform-independent language like Java. So, right away […]
(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 […]
Batch Source Formatting in Eclipse Indigo
This has been bugging me lately — how to do a batch formatting using Eclipse! If you plug things like Checkstyle (and PMD to a certain extent) in your project build, you get bugged every now and then when someone else makes a change with stuff about tabs/spaces, brackets being on the same line or […]
Customizing Squirrel Mail Login Page
For those of you who are using SquirrelMail, you might have noticed that it looks a bit well, let’s just say amateurish 🙂 That doesn’t go to say it isn’t a good package! (I personally love it and I think it does a pretty good job — hence my additions to this software.) However, as […]
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 […]
Bandwidth – reloaded
I’ve posted before about bandwidth in my posts and I knew from the beginning that it’s one of those issues that you can never exhaust. As it happens recently I came across another interesting thing which is probably worth sharing: cross browser delivery. In brief, it means delivering to each browser the content it can […]
Server side developers
OK I had this post in my mind for a while now — the only reason I’m publishing it so late is because it started initially with just small nags in my head about server side developers and I thought at the time one small nag from me hardly constitutes enough reason for a post. […]
