Usually you get fixes for a WordPress release up until the first beta of the +2 release is out. That is, for 3.1, up until 3.3 Beta 1 is out. I don’t know if 3.1, the last release that works with PHP4, will receive special treatment.

“Malware is so rare on the Mac that Apple set up an entire web page to deal with the one trojan currently known to be impacting Mac users.” I read that and I thought Apple had set up a top-level page. I then saw it is an article in Apple’s

The webfont used (Cantarell) does not look good in Windows. The texts are almost unreadable: http://op111.net/u/misc/20110407-win7-fx4-gnome.org.png — (It looks fine on Linux.) Cantarell, by the way, is also the UI font of Gnome Shell. No

I don’t completely get what Marco is trying to say. IMAP is not exclusive to FastMail (which is is a great service). Gmail has it too. And POP3 of course. Most of the time I use Gmail from its web interface. The few times I had problems wit

Here is one scenario that comes easily to mind: I publish an article at only-original-content.com. The article has some images that are served from only-original-content.com/images. Now only-copied-content.com takes my original article and

Matt, I don’t understand why Google need to offer blocking as a user option. Any web netizen with some experience can tell at a glance the spammy and low-quality results on a SERP, but Google, with their vast knowledge and experience and th
