We’ve been working on a new support forum for the SSI-Developer site. Actually, in truth, Enzo has set it up in about 5 minutes so to say we’ve been “working on it” isn’t quite right. Anyway, it’s just been put online, we still have to redesign it, it still has the same ‘skin’ it came [...]
I’ve just started using the Sunbird calendar. I was on the hunt for a simple free calendar, tried a few shite ones but this is the first decent one which is totally free. It’s basic, and a bit buggy because it’s still very early in its development but it’ll be excellent when finished.

Well it seems that while the fight against SPAM continues Spim Is On The Rise so it looks like there’s another battle looming. It also seems that “70% of spim involves pornography”…I think I need to [...]
A study at the University of North Carolina has concluded that “file sharing” is not responsible for the slump in album sales! It’s still illegal of course, but maybe you don’t need to feel so guilty!?!
Good article here on Why IP banning is useless, for those of you running forums or blogs who are not familiar with how the aul banning IP’s thingy works.
This article on the treatment of Irish people by British police is an interesting read. I really didn’t think this kind of thing went on anymore. Sure i’ve heard stories over the years about harassment and so forth but on numerous trips to the UK I have never even seen a hint of this.
interesting Bloody Sunday inquiry developement! It appears the inguiry might get access to previously confidential lawyers’ files!! Apart from the cost and time issues what effect could this have on the ruling? What sort of new information could come to light… stay tuned!
