Google Analytics changes

If you have Google Analytics, you have about one year to change your code:

 

From:

<script src="http://www.google-analytics.com/urchin.js" type="text/javascript"> </script> <script type="text/javascript"> _uacct = "UA-YOURNUMBER-1"; urchinTracker(); </script>

 

To:

<script type="text/javascript"> var gaJsHost = (("https:" == document.location.protocol) ? "https://ssl." : "http://www."); document.write("<script src='" + gaJsHost + "google-analytics.com/ga.js' type='text/javascript'></script>" ); </script> <script type="text/javascript"> var pageTracker = _gat._getTracker("UA-YOURNUMBER-1"); pageTracker._initData(); pageTracker._trackPageview(); </script>

iPod CPR

Is you iPod dead?
All you see is this:
Fear no more, there is a simple cure for this sad face: whack it.
Show your hardware who is the boss! Hammer it! Well, don't use a hammer, a simple bang is enough.

Thanks Bruno for the tip!

Me wants internet!!!

Can some generous soul send me a copy of winmerge? It looks like i'm
in a very restricted access policy, so i cannot access anything...
but I need winmerge! I work with it...
Guess i'll have to bring my 3G access to work...

Just to say i'm still alive

New job, new responsibilities, new email, new machine to install, a
LOT of restrictions...
I'll have to start blogging by email, because almost every site is
blocked. At least I still have gmail, slashdot and wikipedia. And
google reader! So, if you have a blog with a feed, you still exist
