Configuring DNS

Here’s a simple whois site I am fond lately easywhois

Here’s a good read about DNS spoofability

And here’s what I’m listening right now….

It’s almost the same implementation of wordpress, here’s the quick and dirty way of implementing your google analytics, woopra, sitemeter or whatever you use to check your Simple Machines Forum’s web statistics.

Step 1: Create an include file for your Google Code.

Paste the following code in an empty text file and save it in /smf/Sources as /smf/Sources/analytics.php (.html or .htm will do)

Replace UA-#######-# with your Web Property ID from your web analytics account.

Step 2: Find the  index.template.php

Find your theme directory. Typically it will be the theme folder beneath /smf/Themes.

Open the file /smf/Themes//index.template.php

Step 3: Insert on line of code before the closing tag
Open index.template.php in a text editor.

Search for with </body>
You will find the following lines of code:

echo ‘
<div id=”ajax_in_progress” style=”display: none;’, $context['browser']['is_ie'] && !$context['browser']['is_ie7'] ? ‘position: absolute;’ : ”, ‘”>’, $txt['ajax_in_progress'], ‘</div></body></html>’;

Break the last </div> like this:

</div>’;

require_once’analytics.php’;
echo ‘</body></html>’;

Save the file and you’re done.

Testing.

View source your site, check if there’s google analytics before </body>

Enjoy!

For example, I wanted the sub-category mmo-pc changed to mmo-games but instead it changed itself to mmo-games-pc. What could be the problem?

This problem occurs if you have the exact slug named to tags. Before, I have a tag named “mmo-games” in which causing the problem. After searching for that particular tag “mmo-games” and deleted it. I go back editing the sub-category slug “mmo-pc” to “mmo-games”. Viola, problem solved.

So make sure you don’t have identical name for tags and categories.

How to get thigns done, Less is More philosophy

“Less Work, More Work”

This is what I think first before I start a project, “Less Work, More Work” may sound contradicting to you but its an effective mindset to start with. Now why “Less Work, More Work”?

It basically means, Less Time to finish a job and More time to some more. Lesser time to do things, means more time do more. Ergo, your productivity rate will increase and “grace” you will get. Analyze first your gameplan on how to fnish the project and you will find that you will be saving a lot of time of doing it. You will soon realize, “I’m done, …Next!”

The Solution of Complexity is Simplicity, embracing the KISS rule

Like what I said in “I’m always out of time”, KISS rule is essential also to save you more time. Life is just making a “program”, it’s a yes or no choice,  if don’t make things simple then things will get really complex.

Love what you do, if you don’t then get out of it.

If you don’t love what you do, indeed you will get bored. Life is really offering a lot of options to choose or decide from. Fascinate with the problem, be amazed with it, picture out how good will it be after “you” getting it “done”. Creative people don’t find motivation, they motivate themselves. You are what you are and we only have one shot in life, live it to the fullest by making small things such as work to gain confidence and happiness in life. Just think what I said about simplicity, more work to be done – more money – and more money will lessen your financial burden. I’m not telling you to be materialistic but let’s face it. Money is essential in our generation, now that we (the whole world) is facing economic crisis. Not just you help yourself, your family but also the economy itself.

Optimize your mind

Seriously, the human body is the perfect computer. We have the ability to “defrag” ourselves, remove things that clutter us to be productive. Clear away all distractions during work: email, youtube, IM or anything that eats one or more minutes of your time while working.

In this state, you may say “this will overwork me, will get me bored”. I know, and I also suggest allocate some time to free your mind. Play games, take a nap, watch something funny just to revitalize your mind.  Just do these things to put gas in your engine, don’t do this frequently though. Limit this, but make sure to make out of it. Patch Adams, advocates “Laughter is the best medicine, happiness removes illness”. It also applies on recharging your “mind battery”. Laughter is an  all in one medication for the mind, the body and the soul to be strong.

Focus on one project, and you will realize that its done. You will be craving for more, but you will not be one of those “workaholic-killing-my-body” type. Think, I work to make my body, life, and family better.

Finally, reward yourself. Take a good nap, eat w/ the family, dance with your wife/husband. Watch pixar/disney movies with your kid like “Ratatouile”, “Bolt” or “Chicken Little” (my kid’s favorite).

or just grin away looking at the project done.

and start the evil laugh… bwa hahahaha hahaha haha! >:)

…one of the youngest seo guy out there.

Well, wish you luck.

Wanna learn how I do it?

Yes, I didn’t hack Google Adsense server. And yes, I am joking! haha!

Generate your Google Adsense screenshot and manipulate your revenue using Google Adsense Generator. It fun, go on fool your friends with it. Hehehe

Wanna learn how I earn that? ReadHow did I increase my Google Adsense Revenue

I checked their What’s new page and they did continue the project.

Before, mySQL-front is one of the “free” mySQL GUI, althought not open-source or freedom software. It sits right next to phpmyadmin in my list. Last time I heard for mySQL-front is that they stopped the project because of some issues w/ mySQL itself being a “free” mySQL GUI.

After reading the time difference when it stopped, 16 of Jun 2006. They resume the project 27 of Oct 2007 more than a year after. I still use it way back in 2006 till now, but only till now that I knew it was resume more than a year after. Maybe its because I didn’t have problem using the very very old version.

“I wish I have more time”

“If only I can buy time…”

“If only I have time for everything…”

Sometimes these are the words I whisper to my mind. I haven’t blog for awhile, I always catch up on things needed to be done. I got to thinking, why is this happening?

For we all know, when we aged we realized that it seems we are lacking of time.  Time for family, work, laundry, so on and so forth.  I remember when I was a kid, summer vacation seems so long and christmas felt endless.  After school year is over, being a kid I was, felt I was out of prison.  Kids don’t think of problems except of “if I did wrong, parents will get mad”, or “how can I ask my parents for things like toys I want”, or things to be done in school.

But now, holidays are only dayoff from work, christmas and new years seems like 2 months away. And they felt like burden for expenses and financial balancing troubles.

You Have Time For Everything

Don’t spend time just working and being busy.
You will always complain about lack of time.

Instead put little bit of effort; Plan & organize your life.
You will realize that you have time for everything.

A quote from pravsworld.com

Simple, and it makes sense. Here’s another one,

You cannot make time for everything, you have to prioritize
Your “IN” basket will never empty.
Your kids don’t need anything special, just play a board game will be enough.

The kids just want you attention, so is it more important to clean or to spend good quality time with the kids?
You just need to choose. Life is just filled with choices.

One thing I learn from this quote is that the rule KISS (Keep it Simple, Stupid!) that we (programmers) apply in our programs applies in real life also. It seems life is like a computer programming decision, yes or no. Prioritize problem to be done, benchmark how fast it can be done so you can tackle another problem.

Simplicity becomes complex if you don’t make it simple.
