UPDATE 12:56 pm Feb 12, 2009: The "Don't Click" thing going on at Twitter this very minute is exactly the exploit described in this post. Original post follows... I came across this interesting post last week, and thought I'd do a screencast of it. I just find it fascinating what sneaky stuff people can do on the Interwebs, and by...

Linkshare is Dead. Long Live Linkshare.

I'll start out by saying that when talking about Linkshare, my basic inclinations are toward sarcasm and criticism. I can't help it. I've got deep-seated, ingrained, visceral feelings about Linkshare that come from my many years of not only competing head-to-head with during my 5+ years at Be Free, but from failed attempts to stand together...

CashAddOn - What's Wrong with Incentive Publisher Browser Plugins

There's a new incentive shopping browser plugin on the scene, called CashAddOn. CashAddOn is a Cash Back shopping portal. Their model is that they have a FireFox plugin that, when installed, gives you indication in the browser status bar if you're receiving cash-back commissions on a purchase from the current website.

Safari, I've Missed You

I have been a die-hard Safari user even since I switched over to OS X several years ago. I've always liked it's clean, tabbed interface, as well as other little things like being able to visit non-linked urls (check it out. highlight a url, right-click, go.). That's not to say that I haven't flirted with other browsers. I used Camino...

Buh-bye Askimet

I just pulled the plug on Askimet. Why would I do this to a plugin that's been saving me about 1000 spam comments a day? Because once in a while it caught up a real comment. While I appreciate the effort these guys go through to thwart comment spam, one false positive is too many. Instead I've installed the Did you pass math? plugin...

CJ's LMI Javascript Links: Under the Hood

UPDATE: I've added the "How did I do this?" section at the bottom of this entry containing a tool developed to see inside CJ's Javascript Links. Now that CJ's new Javascript links are available for examination, we can better understand what will be possible, and what will not. My first glance at the links last night and my test page...

CJ Javascript Links First Looks

As promised, CJ has launched their Link Management Initiative on June 23 (a bit early for them, still the 22nd on the west coast). Here's what a basic link code looks like. <script type="text/javascript" language="javascript" src="http://www.dpbolvw.net/placeholder-1299? TARGET=_top&MOUSEOVER=N"></script> My first...

OSX Tiger Purrs

I'm a Mac user. I don't know if that sort of statement surprises people any longer, but it still surprises me to hear myself say it. I have been a "switchter" for a year and a half now and I really enjoy the combination of a very well designed graphical OS with Unix under the covers. I spend a good portion of my time in a Unix command line...
