My slice of the interwebs
When you visit a website it can generally be accessed via “http://www.domain.com” or “http://domain.com”. Having access to both versions will in fact over time harm your search engine ranking.
When you send an email to someone their address generally isn’t “name@mail.domain.com”. It would more likely be “name@domain.com” so why not just remove the www. from all domains.

I was skimming through Chris’ blog and noticed a post about Windows 7 Nightmares.
Basically Windows 7 Nightmares is an anonymous blog with information about how and why Microsoft mis-managed the Windows 7 Beta and goes into quite some details. I would recommend that you check out the blog, it’s quite a good read.
As most of you know that are using iPhone OS 3.0 when you sent a text to multiple recipients it sends it as an MMS. This can be quite frustrating for the recipients as they may not use MMS.
What I have done is created an Optus carrier update (based of the one from Apple dated 20090612) which you can download which disables the group MMS option and also enables tethering using “yesinternet” as the APN and adds the “yes optus” carrier logo instead of just saying “optus”.

I thought I would write a post in regards to what I do online each day and thought what better way to do that than list 5 websites that I visit daily.
Please leave me a comment in regards to websites that you visit daily so I can check them out. More info after the jump.
Well last night I decided to bite the bullet and download iPhone OS 3.0 from The Pirate Bay. Technically what I did was piracy I guess as it’s the Gold Master sent to developers and not the one that is released to the general public.
Update: Version 3.0 of the firmware has officially been released, read more for the links to the firmware.
Well I have recently updated to WordPress 2.8 and K2 RC7 Nightly. I am in the process of re-theming the whole site. I figured I updated to version 2.8 so I might as well clean up the theme a bit. So come back soon and check out the new layout.
Also on another note, with the new Facebook username option that was released as of late, I managed to get “justyn.smith” so you can access my Facebook page by navigating to http://facebook.com/justyn.smith – neat hey.
Well WordPress 2.8 Release Candidate 1 was released yesterday for download.
There was more tickets opened and also closed in this version than any other version of WordPress to date which you can read about in the wp-hackers Google Group.
If all goes to plan, WordPress 2.8 should be released on the 10th which is only two days away. To see the list of changes you can checkout the changelog or read a review of WordPress 2.8.
Last night Chell and I took the kids in to see The Great Moscow Circus. The show started at 7:30pm so we decided to leave at 6:45pm to make it to Riverway on time (we live about 5 minutes away).
