A mixed bag today…

First off, I return to the airwaves tonight with a live radio request show and I need your requests and comments!

Via Singing Stranger (great blog by the way!) – the Apple Store were selling the Iomega 1TB external Hard Drive for only €29.95! – Looks like they’re removed the product from their virtual shelf now though… what a f**k-up!

Give it 5 minutes… Flip from Reverse Fad may be just a time-wasting way of turning your text upside-down, but it’s also the inspiration for hundreds of digg users who decided that it was a cool way of posting comments. ¡ǝʞı1 ‘ɥbnouǝ ɹıɐɟ…

Okay, this happened back in April, but I’m only noticing it now… was editing my MySpace page and saw a load of “msplinks.com” URLS there in the place of the URLS in my links – but apparently, they’re perfectly legit. via the Webmaster Tips site: MySpace have begun filtering outgoing links using msplinks.com. While your click still (usually) takes you to your destination, it will go through a redirecting site first to filter out spam, phishing and virus sites. Handy, I suppose but I’d suggest they use a javascript mouse hover script too to obscure the ‘ugly’ msplinks url in the status bar! Myspace conspiracy theories aside, apparently it’s caused a few problems with blocking links to peoples personal blogs, youtube, last.fm and bebo so naturally someone’s found a workaround.

Via Safe To Delete, look out! It’s the PC De-Crapifier! – coming along to save the motherf**kin’ day, yeah… and to remove tonnes of useless crap from your PC, uncluttering Windows and (presumably) speeding things up a bit. Warning, though: Use at your own risk!

Donncha and Damien insist that you’re all just jealous… of Cork. I’m not. I’m quite happy to live and work in good old Dundalk (and to be moderating the North East forum and its new county sub-forums [fora?] on boards.ie)! It’s the ideal place to discuss the town – check it out!
