This is pretty handy …
JustBlogIt with a simple right-click.
JustBlogIt is a Mozilla / Firefox extension to allow easy right-click posting to a weblog. From any website your new blog post is only a right-click away.
For those of you not enlightened, it also works with Blogger, Drupal, LiveJournal, Movable Type, Radio Userland, TextPattern, and TypePad.

I just spent 2 hours helping a co-worker resolve a database connectivity problem. The software we were trying to install (our own product, as it happens) kept telling us it was having a problem connecting to the SQL server database.
We tried to install the software three times … each time it failed with same error.
Finally I looked at the database name we were trying to use … the my co-worker was telling me to use was ‘qa-db3278’ … but the database he created was ‘qa_db3278’.
Well of course it couldn’t create the tables … the database we were telling it to create them in didn’t exist.
Oh well 🙂
Google to unveil desktop search | CNET News.com
[Google] has created Google Desktop Search, a thin-client application that lets people retrieve e-mail, Microsoft Office documents, AOL chat logs and a history of Web pages previously viewed, all via a Web browser.
This sounds kind of cool. I’ll be interested to see what they do with it.
A while ago Alta-vista (I think) created something similar … but it never took off.
