I just found the center for password sanity. My joy lessened as I re-read the title and discovered it was the center for, not center of password sanity 🙂

I’ve been coding PHP for +5 years now, and it’s great. But from time to time you have to delve into other languages and systems and “get stuff done”.
This post is going to list the resources I’ve found most useful – as a guide for others and as a bookmark collection for myself.
If you’ve read this blog before you’ll know that I’ve just launched RealState and am building up the functionality. It’s early days, and the domain is sandboxed so I’m not terribly anxious about how much traffic it gets – not yet anyway!
But I was thinking that I should put WebAnalyse onto it so that I have some tracking and I stumbled over another blog talking about Google Analytics. I shuddered at the thought of Google getting into the hitcounter game, it seemed like such a backward step. And I usually like to control my data but Google is trusted, surely they won’t shut up shop and leave me statistics-less?
I help support an old application for a large multinational company. It’s having issues and we’re working hard to work out how to make it’s life easier. While reviewing some of the issues Windows might be having on the desktop we discovered that the standard install (aka “build”) had “Automatically search for network folders and printers” turned on.
Rollyo have released a workable form of their search tool. I found it first looking for a custom search engine and their tool is one step in the right direction. It’s really only good for having a search between grouped sites, or between friends (with a limit of 25 sites per rollyo group) – but it’s a bit of fun. Here’s mine:
We don’t get out of town terribly often due to sports and family commitments. When we do we often just catch up with friends at the Pauanui holiday home.
However this weekend we’re headed up north and needed to find somewhere to stay. Friends had talked enthusiastically about a site called “What If” so I thought I’d take a look. Hunts around on Google failed to turn the site up!
