In doing so, I’ve had a chance to revisit many of our service providers, including AWeber (aff.).
UPDATED: 12/28 … it’s a currently a reporting interface.

I love search engines. One of my favorites is the mnogosearch engine that I’ve been using since Mark Joyner’s Aesop.com. In this article, I present a some object-oriented PHP code that can be used to access the search results.

Having difficulty deleting files on your WordPress install? There are two options: fix FTP mode on your website, or disabe it completely. Here I show you how.
It seems that like Joomla!, WordPress has an FTP mode for when it doesn’t think it can access files.
This manifests itself in a mesage that says: “To perform the requested action, connection information is required.”

I’ve just upgraded yet another aging server running on Amazon’s Elastic Compute Cloud.
This one has been running for over 2 years.
This is what it looked like just before I took it offline (instance id i-bdee4dd4):
20:39:05 up 778 days, 4:44, 3 users, load average: 0.00, 0.00, 0.00
That’s the last “instance store” machine I had, now everything is running on the Elastic Block Store (EBS).
With EBS, I’ll be rebooting more often (monthly or so) in order to get instantly-available clones, so this will probably be my personal server uptime record.
