Ever since I installed Google Desktop & Google Talk, I’ve had to contend with the Google Talk notifier that tells me if there’s a message or not, which it always says there is.

webdesigning & developing
After the writing bug of the past two weeks, I’ve been bitten by the design bug this past weekend, the m|ph blog’s latest header being my latest victim. I change the header to reflect the latest cover every month, and this one took approximately 3~5 hours spread over three days to do (not counting the time actually dreaming up the design), partly because I repair other things along the way, such as the Google Search box which was improved by Google these past few months and therefore deserved an update.
a crying shame
Making the rounds of the maillists these days is mediag8way’s linuxworld, which promises to be an exciting event, with 4 conference tracks that include introduction to business applications, more technical and systems admininstration, “meet the experts” (which should be interesting in itself), and an advocacy / public interest part which is open to the public.

this isn’t IT news at all
Instead, it’s more for the sleaze – ball area of publications, maybe somewhere in the gossip columns or materiel for the enquirer.
two new ygroups!
I’m announcing two new yahoogroups: Ph-Photoshop amd Ph-CSS. Basically decided to make them since I deal with these two things a lot on a daily basis, aside from the fact I like making howtos on photoshop among others and I’m sure others out there wanna share their stuff.
clamwin antivirus – the strong(?) silent(!) type
there’s this comic i used to follow The Born Loser, where a joke goes about how the harrassed guy’s wife threw away their fire extinguisher because “We never get to use it anyway!”.

howto put google ads on a phpbb forum
I got to do something productive today! I finally managed to put Google Ads onto my project Broadband Exchange. I actually manage five or so PHPBB installations, but bEx (as I like to call it), is mine and mine alone, which allows me to a.) screw it up if I feel like it and b.) put humongous Google Ads again, should the wind blow in that direction.
At any rate, let me list down what I did, partially for myself, and mostly really for whoever else out there who wants to learn this stuff. But firstly some groundrules:
