I’m researching VOIP options and Vonage looks rather promising as I haven’t a clue what acronyms like SIP and NAPTR stand for, but SIPthat.com is a “blog on SIP, VoIP, IP Telephony and all that is IP communications” and has already increased my knowledge somewhat.
Thankfully murble on #linux pointed me at FWD which looks very promising!
An evening in Garretstown
Site for newbies..
Look, if you ask me a stupid question, if it’s obvious as hell that you haven’t made any effort to research the answer, or even figure out what’s the answer, then I’ll tell you to Just Fucking Google It!
Yes, I’ll ask stupid questions too, let him who is without sin cast the first stone!
mmCache Vs PHP Accelerator
Several days ago I started tuning and working on the cache and accelerator on my web server at work. Matt suggested I look at the mmCache for PHP, and I have it installed now. It’s early days yet, and adviews are down by a small amount but I’ll have a better idea of general performance tomorrow. It may pay to delete the mmCache cached files every hour like I did with PHP Accelerator too.
More later!

Digicams vs. DSLRs
Here’s a fairly balanced article comparing consumer digital cameras and digital SLRs.
There’s no one right tool for the job so if you can afford it, enjoy the best of both worlds!
First Symbian/Series 60 Virus?
This virus, called EPOC.Cabir is a “proof of concept” virus.
It repeatedly sends itself to the first Bluetooth-enabled device that it can find, regardless of the type of device (ie even a Bluetooth-enabled printer will be attacked if it is within range).
I’m glad I have bluetooth turned off on my Nokia 7650!
Online Photo Printing Service in Ireland?
I’m looking for somewhere to print digital photos again. This time I don’t want to go into town, find parking, stumble through the crowds and do the human interaction thing in a shop. I want to order online and get the photos to my door in a few days time, all neat and tidy!
I’ve used Spectra Photo before, but not online, but they have a wide range of sizes and are reasonably cheap. They have a useful resolution and quality guide too.
Bonus Print was suggested on #linux by Zoso and they’re even more reasonable, but you need Windows software to upload photos to them.
Mypixmania have a promotion going with Photography Blog at the moment, but they’re in the UK and it’s not clear if they deliver here.)
If you’re in Galway then Matt o’Flahertys chemist will print 300 6×4 prints for €14.99, at least 2 years ago and none of the following comments there say otherwise.
I’ll probably go for Spectra Photo in the end, they’re reasonable at bulk prices and I may opt for different sizes, even large format for one or two. Now, I need someone to supply me with picture frames..
Later… Minus1 points out Shutter Fly. Looks good.
RoystoN BRADY WOZ `ERE
Hehe. I wish I had heard this story before the election on Friday! Royston likes to scrawl his name on wooden desks! Very impressive trait in a political candidate! He, and many in Fianna Fail didn’t do too well in the election so it’s just as well I think.
Pity the referendum passed. Now that the government can control who gets Irish citizenship it’s only a matter of time before extremists come into power and decide a citizen has to be white, fluent in Irish and can recite the names of the 1916 leaders…
