Looks like Matt has started giving out WordPress.com invites. Hmm.
Only one per person, who would you give your invite to?
Avoiding the dreaded Refresh
WTF were they thinking when they coded this bit of trash and made it public? Embedding SQL into a web page?
I don’t know if I’ve met anyone as clueless as this poor guy’s (almost) previous employer!
Cobh Peoples Regatta, 2005
It’s been a busy weekend. I went down to Cobh tonight to see the firewords and capture the mood of the people in photos.. Everyone was in great form and the fireworks were a great end to the Regatta.
This is part 1 of a 2 part series of shots. Part 2 comes tomorrow and will have pictures from inside the Jeanie Johnston (Thanks Donogh and Ronan!) and shots of the band that played the night away…
Ryan was there too, and he has some stunning shots of the fireworks and the fairground!
Update! This blog was mentioned on Red FM a few minutes ago! I emailed them but didn’t honestly expect to hear anything back! Great!

AJAX in IE without ActiveX
Kae discovered that AJAX functions in IE depend on ActiveX being enabled. This is terrible – something that’s useful (AJAX) depends on something awful(ActiveX)!
Anyway, Kae found a way around this limitation. It’s not complete but it’s a stab in the right direction.
DART drivers threaten boycott of new longer trains
I’m in the wrong job. I should be driving a train.. they’re asking for 20,000 Euro to drive longer trains. Just wait ’til the next time I upgrade my PC 😉

Thunderbird Feeds and Messages: Duplicates?
I use Thunderbird to track several RSS feeds but one thing that annoys me about reading Del.icio.us feeds is the problem of recurring links. It’s not surprising that the same links appear time and again but here’s a way to delete those duplicates: The Remove Duplicate Messages extension does just that. It will compare different elements of messages and offer to delete them.
It works best with RSS feeds when you select “Compare subject/Compare message body (slow)” in Tools->Extensions->Remove Duplicate Messages->Options.
If you use Feedster.com, you’ll notice all the dupes that come through when feedster is down. This’ll get rid of those too!
