Got Malware? Use a Hosts File
Written by Shark in Thursday, March 13th 2008
Even though this isn't directly related to blogging or running a website, it is needed to have a well running PC. After all if you can't use your PC because it's bogged down with bloatware, malware, adbots, or any other dang thing out there, you very well can't do any website work.

I think I found a theme that will work for now, it's a 3 column theme like I wanted, with some advertising areas implemented and two sidebar widget areas.

Written by Shark in Wednesday, February 27th 2008
If you're into building websites you might want to take a look at this tool. I stumbled upon it just a few days ago whilst browsing the Firefox addons directory. It's called Fireshot, and it allows you to take snapshots of a webpage in the window or the entire screen and annotate it.
