Send to Flickr bookmarklet

I’ve been a Flickr user since 2004, and apart from the occasional social picture, I’ve (ab)used it mainly to store screenshots and illustrations I found on the web.  One of the useful tools Flickr provided in those first years, was the “Send to Flickr” bookmarklet: if you’re on a web page with an image you [...]

Oomph for Firefox: Microsoft’s Microformats IE plugin as Greasemonkey script

About a month ago Microsoft presented Oomph, a first attempt to integrate microformats in their tools1. Oomph at this moment consists of an IE8 plugin, a set of css styles and a plugin for the blogging tools Windows Live Writer.  I’ll let this Microsoft video explain: The IE8 extension does something similar as the Firefox Operator [...]

How not to miss any Twitter replies @Your_Username

One of the nice things about Twitter’s social background noise is that you actually can shut it down - like putting on headphones in a bustling office when you want to concentrate on a task. But you might want to avoid anger and irritation when someone actually wants to talk to you and calls [...]

Network privacy settings on Facebook: I wouldn’t consider a country a close-knit community

One of the reasons for the runaway success of Facebook compared to blogging is imho the (perceived) privacy users enjoy. Detailed profile data is only visible to confirmed friends and members of the same “network”. Facebook networks (schools, companies and regional networks) are supposed to be mere representations of their equivalents in meatspace: [...]

Making money with Adsense - without annoying your users: Wordpress.com

Automattic is reaping the rewards for years of hard work. Automattic is the company behind comment spam filter Akismet and Wordpress.com, and of course the magnificent open source blogging software started by Matt Mullenweg. But how do they make money from their free blog hosting service? The answer: like everybody else - Google Adsense. Still [...]

Firefox extension not compatible with browser (Flock, Mozilla, Seamonkey…) version: What to do?

You really want to install this Firefox extension but you can’t? Because it’s not compatible with your browser (screen shot)? Or you have upgraded your browser and some of your favourite add-ons got disabled? Happens a lot with more exotic extensions, or if you’re using a minority browser like Seamonkey, [...]

Delegation discovery: a bookmarklet for OpenID evangelists

There’s little to add to the many great writeups, presentations and screencasts on OpenID, but I thought it would be fun to have a bookmarklet that checks whether a page URL can be used as an OpenID login, so whether that page already has been “claimed”. So here it is, the OpenID discovery bookmarklet Drag it to your [...]

Master of your mailbox: an email alias for every site you leave your address

Do you want more control over which mails end up in your inbox? Then every time you give out your email address at a site, use an alias specific for that url. It helps you to track where (and by whom) mail addresses are being used, and lets you filter or block unnecessary [...]

Hosted screenscraping: HTML to RSS with Dapper

There are several screen-scraping services out there, but Dapper is one that’s both versatile and visual. With a bit of trial and error, everyone can transform html web pages (or more precisely: changes in web pages) into email notifications, a startpage widget, RSS or another syndication format. Take this example: Jan, who I happen [...]
