Another reason to use Linux?
There are many reasons for me to use Linux – one of them is the WGA checking which currently has the nerve to brandmark my Windows 7 as a “non genuine copy” since I’ve applied the latest updates. To improve the situation, this happens on a Saturday night.

Offline tools for blogging?

Facebook vs StarBlog
May 14th, 2010 by Stargazer
You might have noticed that I am hanging around on Facebook, where I also published the RSS feed of this blog – mainly to extend the range of my posts. Sounds great, but you know what’s been said about theory and things in practical. On facebook people can comment my postings too which tears up the discussion.
After some time of searching through code and plugins I stumbled across a plugin that imports those facebook comments back to the blog. I hope this solves that loose comment problem. It’s now active and we’ll see if it works as expected…
