Enabling HTTP Compression in IIS 6.0

by ERSWeb (via)
HTTP Compression is a wonderful technology that accomplishes a lot of different things. It allows faster page serving to clients and lower server costs due to lowered bandwidth (these two being enough for me to implement). There are a handful of articles out there that explain how to implement HTTP Compression in Internet Information Server (IIS) 6.0, but I haven’t been able to find a nice step-by-step article, so I decided to set one up. In this how-to, I’ll briefly explain what HTTP Compression is and how it works in IIS 6.0, and then provide step-by-step instructions on how to implement it because it’s not as simple as flipping a switch. In fact, there are many things in multiple places on the server you have to properly configure to implement HTTP Compression.

Dinkytunes Home

Shut your Mac down, don’t get up... I bought an Apple Mac Mini to use as a media center. Apple ships OS X Leopard with Front Row, which is great, except I found an important feature lacking: you need a keyboard to shut your Apple down. Not what you want in a chique remote controlled home cinema setting. I made a Shut Down plug-in for Front Row. It appears there are a lot of people that don’t want to get up to switch off their Mac up after watching a movie!

Three Reasons Why I Won't Be Using Google Latitude - PC World

by karlcow

Now, Google Latitude does let you limit how specific of a location any given person can see. Let’s face it, though: If you make the effort to get into a location-sharing relationship with someone, odds are you’re both going to reveal more than just your current city. And if you suddenly disappear from the map or switch over to showing limited info, it’s going to look a little strange.

Hidding is revealing.

5 Design Decision Styles. What's Yours?

by greut (via)

In our research, we found that the most effective teams were skilled in all five styles, choosing the style that best fit the needs and goals of a project. For example, they might concurrently be involved in deep research on a User-Focused project, while relying on their experience for a Genius designed project, and spend a little time whipping out some one-shot functionality whose results would be Unintended Design.

Since the teams are working with different styles all the time, does it matter? Our research says it does. The teams that produced the best experiences knew these styles well and how to quickly switch between them. They knew when they needed to go whole hog and pull out all the stops for a User-Focused style project, while also knowing when it was important to bang out a quick design, knowing the results would essentially be unintended. Those teams had a rich toolbox of techniques and a solid understanding on how and when to use them.

There is no silver bullet.

How to Upload MP3 Music Files to Flickr or Picasa Web Albums

by decembre & 2 others
To hide an MP3 file into a JPEG image, copy the MP3 file and a picture into a folder. Open the command prompt window (Start –> Run –> cmd) and switch to this folder. Now run the following command: copy /b my_picture.jpg + my_song.mp3 my_new_picture.jpg Remember to replace my_picture and my_song with relevant file names. Next, upload the my_new_picture.jpg file to Flickr. The MP3 song picture will look just like any other regular photograph that you share on Flickr

Animation à céer en ligne ___Xtranormal Makes You the Director of a 3D Clip

by decembre
Xtranormal, a free 3D animation creation and sharing tool, is a seriously addictive sandbox for crafting miniature dramas, comedies, or whatever you can tell your little actors to do. The clip editor works like a storyboard that you drag story changes onto. So in one "scene," for example, you can have the camera switch to a close-up view, have your character wink and then recite some decent text-to-speech dialogue, then have them cross their arms and make the camera go for an overhead shot. You can add another character, change the backdrops, turn the camera positioning to automatic, and generally spend way too much time being an online Hitchcock (or Scorcese, or Tarantino, or any other name you care to drop). Building the movies takes a good chunk of time, and sometimes fails entirely, though that might be due to early-discovery traffic. Xtranormal is free to use, requires a sign-up to save your clips for later editing. Feel free to share links to your own mini-epics in the comments.

Funky Routing - OptionC

by camel
This has been tested on Xen 2.0.7-1 with Shorewall 3.0.3-1. This Howto presupposes you already have a base Xen install. If not, and you are unfamiliar with Xen, then you probably want to start with the Xen_Debian_Quick_Start. If you do have such a system and you used the default, networking should be running relatively seemlessly. These configurations are only if you want to switch to routed networking (and have a bit more control). There is nothing particularly funky about them, but I haven't had a chance to change it, and that was the first thing that came off of my fingers when I created this page

Artisan Numérique » Test de la FreeBox HD : Exploration des possibilités geeks

by decembre & 1 other
Lorsque j'ai reçu ma freebox, avec son boîtier HD, je suis dit, mui bien !! je vais pouvoir utiliser ce bidule pour remplacer la machine qui me sert aujourd'hui de noeud multimédia. En effet, avec un disque dur, toutes la connectique audio/vidéo et réseau, une télécommande, la TNT, ça semblait parfait tout ça... Formater le disque en XFS (le disque interne de la freebox est en XFS) afin de pouvoir le monter en lecture / écriture sur la freebox et de palier à la limitation de taille maxi de fichier de 4 Go sur les partitions en Fat32...mais le NTFS passe tres bien aussi. Du moins en lecture. Branché boîtier HD sur switch... tout simplement, sans freeplug ni rien. Et là miracle, ça marche ! Tout les services y sont... Du coup je ne comprend plus bien l'intérêt de la manoeuvre... Dans tout les cas, je peux enfin mettre le boitier HD où je veux sur mon réseau et c'est déjà pas mal. Voyons maintenant comment l'utiliser comme module multimédia.

Royal Pingdom » The Web back in 1996-1997

by kasi77
To give you some perspective, in 1996… * Google.com didn’t exist yet. * In January 1996 there were only 100,000 websites, compared to more than 160 million in 2008. * The web browser of choice was Netscape Navigator, followed by Microsoft Internet Explorer as a distant second (Microsoft launched IE 3 in 1996). * Most people used dial-up Internet connections with mighty speeds ranging from 28.8Kbps to 34.4Kbps. Highly modern 56Kbps modems would arrive in 1997. * People had only recently started to switch from 640×480 to 800×600 screen resolutions.

HTML Composition in Thunderbird - Tales From The Geek Side - The geeky musings of Greg Rowe.

by night.kame

Generally I write email using plain text. Sometimes I really want to use HTML. I couldn’t find an easy way to switch to compose in HTML when composing a message in Thunderbird so I started searching for extensions. I found that you don’t need an extension to accomplish this. All you need to do is hold shift while clicking on the compose button (”write” button). This doesn’t work with the keyboard (ctrl-shift-m)

En parlant d'interface utilisateur ratée, un peu comme les claviers d'Apple.
