Update on AdAdvantage

I did not mention it but AdAdvantage, my K2 3 column scheme (the one that you are looking at right now), had been updated a while back and is sitting on the scheme page.

Thanks to all those kind soul that send me message to ask, yes I’m still updating it. I’m using it on a number of my blogs and my plan is to sync up with the K2 development as much as I can.

During the last sync I noticed that K2 is doing some integration with the sidebar widgets themselves and interfere with the Automattic’s Widgets. K2’s version is also not complete and cannot support 2 sidebars (as of my last sync).

I’m planning an integration as soon as I find some time and when K2’s version become stable. Thanks for all your feedback and comments.

Donation this Month: cwRsync

In keeping with my plan to make donation from my online earnings to opensource softwares that I use,  this month donation goes to  cwRsync.

cwRsync is a packaged rsync client and server for Windows. Rsync is an open source utility that provides incremental file transfer.You may not be familiar with this application as it is not featured widely. I only found out about it last month as well.

For the last 1 month I had been using it in the background and am very happy with the result. cwRsync solves part of the backup solution that I had been looking for.

This project deserve more attention. I’m doing my little to give it a small donation and promotion. Check it out!

Using my name or 59ideas

In a few of my blogs I had started to change my identity from 59ideas to Ken. I think more people prefer to know a person by real name than a nickname.

Not that I have anything to hide behind my handle (does anyone know what this word mean anymore?). I disclose about myself in the about page and if you like to know more just ask me.

Anyway, I’m see gradually more transactions lately and I plan to expand my online presence. So I want to assure everyone that you are dealing with trustworthy person, albeit in an unfamiliar part of the world.

Strange looking URL

Over the past few days I had been getting phishing email asking me about my ebay auction.

For the record, I had not use or even visited eeeBay ever since their E-grade customer service lose me as a customer.

So naturally I did not click on the link to respond to the non-existent enquiry. But what I found was some much more interesting.

The URL to the link was not the usual URL. I though what a stupid scammer to even get the URL wrong. Then I copied it to the URL bar and hey it work!

Seen one of a URL like this before?

http://0×42ce0afa/

Any clue how it works?
