New template

October 25, 2007 by Ron Shank 3 Comments

I’ve finally updated the template.. I still need to get in there and tweak it. I first saw this at What in Tarnation.Â Hopefully I’ll update it soon so they don’t look identical. But I don’t think we shared readers.Â But, that’s the problem with getting a templates from a blog you read regularly. Which bringing me to my next stop on this train of thought: RSS feeds. All my favorite blogs (and news) are in my Google reader, and I’m wondering, will the day come when no one sees your theme?Â I’m sure I’ve missed half a dozen theme changes from Tony just because I subscribe to his feed. 😉

Gotta run.. but more on this soon.

… and just in time for Christmas! 🙂

I’m testing Dr. Dave’s Spam Karma and within 5 minutes, I caught a spammer. The “making people register” idea didn’t work for real people and didn’t even stop the bots completely. So, let’s give this a try.

I’ll keep you posted.

I’ve grown tired of the spammers. If you want to comment, you’ll have to log in first. I know, it’s a pain.

Rest assured; I’ll never give your email address out to a third party (or even a second party). While we are on the subject, I don’t really like parties at all.

If you think I’ve made a mistake – I value your opinions. Especially from those who’ve disagreed with me in the past.

Exploit turns up heat for Firefox flaw

FIREFOX USERS MUST UPGRADE NOW. Click here.

Computer code that could be used in cyberattacks on Firefox users has been released, increasing the urgency for people to upgrade to the latest version of the Web browser.

The two pieces of exploit code, posted online earlier this week, take advantage of a security vulnerability in Firefox that Mozilla patched in an update Thursday. In response to the exploit release, the browser maker on Tuesday upgraded the severity rating of the flaw from “moderate” to “critical,” its most serious rating.
