Setup Postfix to forward incoming email to PHP
>Setting this up took me a couple of minutes — finding the reason why it didn’t work a couple of hours. The question has hundreds of hits on Google, a simple answer hasn’t. Hope this helps someone somewhere you. Create script to parse incoming mail <?php $data = file_get_contents("php://stdin"); ?> Add a new email address [...]

Just like starting over
Over the years, I have started a couple of last.fm projects. All have one thing in common: they provide a way to display covers on your site, and do it more elegantly than the standard last.fm widget. One of the things that really bugged me about my projects was the different pieces of code I [...]

Geode
Mozilla is working on location awareness in browsers connected through a wireless network. For Firefox 3 a plugin was released, and it was suggested it will be in the core of Firefox 3.1. It seems silly to let your browser determine where your laptop is — as a co-worker put it, it’s at work or [...]

Loop alert
My stats software Woopra tells me Safari is now the browser for 10.6% of my visitors; it was 0.9% last week. As both Safari and Chrome are based on Webkit, it seems Woopra doesn’t report on Chrome yet. This evening I was frustrated with an array in jQuery and as I was working in Chrome, [...]

Chrome
Just got home, downloaded Chrome and made sure my (heavy on the javascript) plugin Run For Cover works ok. It does. That’s egocentric browsertesting for ya. It’s nice to have a couple of tabs open without the airconditioning going into overdrive. Let’s explore.

Changes made: make it work in IE option to show album title and artist next to image option to use it with lightbox plugin (not [...]

Run for cover 2.0
The Run for cover widget has been abandoned for ages, as I only supported my Last.Fm Records plugin for WordPress. Two things make me publish a new version of this WordPress widget: disappointment from people stuck with PHP4 and therefore unable to use the new version of Last.Fm Records — and the joy of parsing [...]

New version and project plans
Just committed version 1.4.1 of Last.Fm Records to WordPress, to fix a couple of issues. The biggest one is the one that Rose pointed out, and I hadn’t seen yet. Thanks, Rose! She saw that if you selected ‘get more images if necessary’, the plugin didn’t display the correct images. I also removed the commented [...]

Version 1.4 of Last.Fm Records released
This was a big one for me — implementing the new last.fm API. I have submitted my changes to wordpress.org, so you should see a message on the plugins page that the new version is available. To make this happen before my holidays, I had to disable some things from the previous version: uploading images [...]
