Back Online!

Jack — Wed, 30 Apr 2008 22:23:29 +0000

Recently you will have noticed the site was down. You have my greatest apologies for this. There was a mix up with pointing the name servers to the new server, but I’ve resolved this now. Telivo weren’t pointing the domains to the correct addresses.

Then I ran into a new problem; My home network completely died. My modem totally froze up and I could not even master-reset… It was totally nulled.. So I’ve had to make a temporary fix with an old junk modem, with my laptop acting as a server :L

Ahh the joys of modern technology!

John Chow… How Not To Make Money Online

Jack — Sat, 16 Feb 2008 04:45:07 +0000

He doesn’t deserve all this attention really, but I’m feeling generous. John Chow has felt Google’s wrath!

By carrying out a vigorous link-building scheme, John Chow seems to have pushed Google to their limits..

In response to this crazed link-building, Google have destroyed his scheme by almost (but not) blacklisting his blog! It seems every site is a higher rank in a search for John Chow on Google than his own.

Don’t mess with the mighty Google! :’)

Terrific people, Google… Terrific

‘Touchpad’ Scrolling in Mozilla Firefox

Jack — Wed, 16 Jan 2008 21:05:19 +0000

Back in the day when all I used was a laptop, I recall getting extremely frustrated with the fact that my Synaptics Touchpad ’scroll area’ had no effect on Firefox.

So here’s the solution if your Touchpad wont scroll when using Mozilla Firefox;

Visit Synaptics’ Driver Downloads and check to see if you have the latest driver. If not, install the newest driver, and you should now be able to scroll in Firefox using your touchpad!

Still got problems?

There could be a problem in Firefox’s config! In the address bar, type in “about:config” and find the following two strings:

mousewheel.horizscroll.withnokey.action and mousewheel.horizscroll.withnokey.sysnumlines. Set the action to zero (0), and set the sysnumlines to “true”.

Hope this helps!

Bebo Tricks - Profile Views!

Jack — Sun, 06 Jan 2008 20:44:17 +0000

There are no ‘hacks’ for Bebo, okey? People often talk about hacking it for pageviews and ‘luvs’ but lets face it, if you could hack the Bebo database, you’d do some sort of useful injection not a ‘luv’ or pageview value.

What you can do though, is fool people.

Profile Views

Want an insane ammount of Profile Views? No problem!

Simply edit your profile, and you’ll come accross a box asking you if you’d like to hide your profile views from the public. Check this box (put a tick in it) and now you need to sacrifice one of your “Favourite Things” boxes (using the last box has the best effect).

Call this “Profile Views” and in the content, put a high, but believable ammount of pageviews (I wouldnt go above xx,xxx values), followed by the word “times” [ex. 10568 times]. Now you can fool people into believing you have thousands of pageviews!

And here’s one I made earlier!

Enjoy! Dont let people catch you out

‘Time’ names iPhone ‘invention of the year’

Jack — Thu, 01 Nov 2007 20:22:17 +0000

What the hell ‘Time’ have announced their high opinion on the iPhone… Infact, they go as far as to say they believe it is invention of the year

I and many others find this hard to understand, but hey.. We all have our oppinions..

“You’d think the Invention of the Year could at least cut and paste text.” - True
