First Post!
It’s the cry that gets up everyone’s goat on online forums, especially slashdot, but Eric setiawan runs First Post where he blogs about people’s first posts.
My first post got that treatment today, going all the way back to 1998. A lot has happened since!
Ajax Mistakes
Ajax Mistakes – just don’t ajaxify everything please!
Writing Scalable Applications with PHP
Linux Journal’s Writing Scalable Applications with PHP article makes a bold claim which some of the comments on it disagree with. Must follow some of the links later.
Unicef bombs the Smurfs in fund-raising campaign for ex-child soldiers
Unicef bombed the Smurf village in a new ad campaign to raise money. This has been doing the rounds for a few days and as one Metafilter userpointed out, “what’s sadder, bombed smurfs…or the fact that people are so unfased by bombed people that we have to resort to bombed smurfs…news at 11”.
Says something about our “caring” society.
SQL Injection Attacks by Example
Ever wondered how some of your favourite apps get hacked and broken into? This page lists lots of examples of database “injections”.
Like an injection you get off your doctor these bits of code inject database code into your application. The code can do anything – delete all your data, grab your passwords, or anything.
And if it happens to you, a nice doctor isn’t going to give you a lollipop.

Me on Today is My Gift To You!
Today is My Gift To You today features one of the photos I submitted to Today FM! Thanks James! I took the picture just outside my home after I heard that Mairead on the show liked pictures of flowers.
I must put the rest of the Us photos online soon. Stay tuned!
Photo Friday: Darkness
I entered the Photo Friday ‘Darkness’ competition a few days ago with my Flight Over Water photo from a few days ago.
Hope I get a couple of votes but some of the competing photos are very good!
FAlbum – WordPress Flickr Plugin
Wow! I’m impressed! FAlbum is a Flickr plugin for WordPress. It’s simple to install and configure, except make sure you put the rewrite rules above any WP ones, especially if you’re using WP 1.6!
It displays your Flickr albums, most recent photos, and lots of other pretty stuff, all inside your blog!
There’s a longer feature list above, and a few demo pages. This is definitely one project I’m going to keep an eye on for the future!
Later… The FAlbum plugin is now running on my new photography site In Photos displaying all my Flickr photos in a nice album!
