Love it or hate it – it is here to stay.
Well, it has been awhile since I have done any maintenance on jappler.com and over the last few weeks, I have noticed a bit of a slow down when the pages load. I took some time today to look at the php code, style sheets, templates, etc and have at least tracked down the problem…somewhat. […]
A few days without internet access is finally a great feeling for me, but comingback to what seems to be endless email…not such a great feeling. During these internet free days (and lots of phone usage) I have finally come to the conclusion that is time to finally leave Cingular. My reception is embarressing and […]
Well, just when you think you have decided on the content management system that is right for you…something else pops up. After having a talking with Ken as he expressed interest in installing Mambo, I wanted to make sure he was aware of the recent turmoil with Mambo, and pointed him to the “new” CMS […]
I have decided to write a four part article on the benefits of using Nagios. The first article focused on why I chose Nagios/what it offers. The second article focused on installing Nagios on Mac OS X. The third article focused on configuring Nagios. This fourth article will focus on improving the Nagios interface and […]

I have had a .Mac account since the beginning (and a “forever free .Mac email address” since the keynote that announced it) but have never really used the Backup application regularly. I have gone back and forth with using rsync at home (with my Solaris machine), but I have to say this latest release is […]

After a few months of using my jappler.com dashboard widget, I decided I needed to update it ever so slightly to take longer post names into consideration. Download the Jappler.com Dashboard widget. Once things slow down a little, I am going to look into how to create a widget for Konfabulator so both Windows and […]

podcasts: I am a workaholic. I stop to take the dog out, eat, and watch Guiding Light. My grandmother listened to it on the radio. My mother watched it on the TV, and now, I can make the next jump in technology…CBS is now offering each episode as a podcast. iPod nano: Good work Apple. […]
