HOW-TO, Spam, Web Ethics, WordPress Plugins

A few days ago, Project Honey Pot introduced a new service, http:BL, “a system that allows website administrators to take advantage of the data generated by Project Honey Pot in order to keep suspicious and malicious web robots off their sites”. A honeypot is a trap set to detect email havesters and spam robots : this should ring a bell to most bloggers, I guess. The beauty of Project Honey Pot is that anyone can contribute : just register an account, download the script and put it somewhere on your blog. It’s been more effective than I would have thought and wished : the day I had my first honeypot installed, it detected a new and before unseen comment spammer. Contributing to this project is an easy way of making the web a cleaner place, and it will also benefit to another WordPress related spam-fighting project : the almighty Bad […]

Radio to WordPress Migration: Scott writes out some instructions on how to migrate from Radio Userland to WordPress in the process of finally migrating to WordPress himself. I found some resources in the WordPress wiki that needs serous TLC but Scott’s instructions might help some people. He uses a tool from Steve Hooker called backLogAllRSS but had to hack the code for things to work to his liking and he promises to share the code 😉 . Welcome to the world of WordPress, Scott!

Stripe Generator: While you are waiting for the WordPress Theme Generator to dig itself out of the digg effect, check out this “ajax diagonal stripes background designer”. At first I was wondering what use cool looking candy stripes would be until I read the Striped Designs post on their blog. I love the subtle gradient stripes! Thanks to a ping from ScriptyGoddess for the WordPress Theme Generator post.

Where Are All the Open Source Billionaires? The lack of open source software billionaires is by design. It’s part of the intent of open source software — to balance the scales by devaluing the obscene profit margins that exist in the commercial software business. . . . There are real millionaires– even billionaires– who built companies on open source software. Just ask Larry Page and Sergey Brin. Or the YouTube founders. The real money isn’t in the software. It’s in the service you build with that software.

I love bloggers, they are very good people. But even the most kind hearted and best intentioned bloggers sometimes either misinterpret or misread information and the piece ends up very different from where it started its life. This somewhat macabre movement of information from one person to other with slight mutilations is very interesting to me. All of us have studied or read about it in one form or fashion. Now here is the idea for the meme: Read through the following news paragraph and recreate a post on your blog from memory if you will. Encourage your readers to do the same with a link back to your post. Now, imagine throwing video into that mix. By the time I got the headphones on and the video downloaded, I’d be on to designing some new feature (or, more likely, answering more email). I’d only get to hear three words […]

Plugin Name Author Adsense Plugin Page http://www.kinkydress.com/php-scripts/author-adsense/ Description This plugin allows blog authors to enter their Google Adsense Publisher ID and have ads displayed on their own posts generating revenue. Features – Ability to set ratio of author to admin ads – Default fallback to admin Publisher ID in case authors’ ID is blank My Review I decided to test this plugin on my technology blog since I am thinking of opening it up to other authors. Installing the plugin is normal. You can set the admin publisher ID and individual authors can set their IDs in WP-Admin itself, which ensures that there is no messy editing of files. Admins can set the ratio of how much their ads are displayed to that of author ads. However, one feature lacking is to customize this ratio by user. Currently you’re stuck with a fixed ratio, so you can’t give your better […]
