Wordpress Plugin for Increasing Alexa Rankings

The wonderful thing about Wordpress community is, whatever ideas you can think of, there’s plugin for it. Few months ago I was thinking, how about including http://redirect.alexa.com/redirect? before all hyperlinks. This will definitely boost the Alexa ranking, because before content reaches destination, they are sent to Alexa to create awareness.

Today, reading from an entry written by Everton of ConnectedInternet, I found a plugin that allows you to do so. This plugin add http://redirect.alexa.com/redirect? automatically to all internal links within your blog. Here’s the authors description on the plugin.

Is this a good idea?

I certainly don’t think so. Although this sounds really promising on boosting Alexa, but will this affects google indexing? How will Google treat links that starts with redirect.alexa.com? I’ll leave the question to you. Also, by doing that, I assume Alexa will be your direct referral source on links, this can potentially screwed the accuracy of your statistics readings, especially if you are stats freak like me. I want to know exactly who click from where to where.

I’m not writing to encourage the installation of this plugin, but rather creating awareness of such.

Another reputable site just got hacked and defaced. CSSRemix.com is probably one of the top site that showcase good Web 2.0 HTML/CSS websites. When I pay the website a visit today, I saw nothing but a spider logo and couple of text written by Turkish hacker named beyrut. Sigh.

Here’s how the real CSSRemix looks like before defaced.

Firefox 2.0.0.5 Now Available

Mozilla Corporation has just updated Firefox to the awkwardly numbered version 2.0.0.5. Eight flaws are fixed in this release - three of which are marked as critical. Those of you wanting to know exactly which vulnerabilities have been fixed might want to check out the Vulnerabilities page at the Mozilla homepage.

Final Harry Potter on BitTorrent

The final book in the Harry Potter series has been leaked to BitTorrent। A torrent with photographs of each page of the American edition of ?Deathly Hallows? has shown up on multiple BitTorrent sites.

Before you rush off to go get it, you may want to know that each page is an image, and the quality isn?t great. It kinda makes me wonder why you?d want to read the book in that kind of quality, but I guess if you?re that anxious to find out what?s going to happen, you won?t mind a massive headache from squinting at your computer screen.And if by chance you don?t want to download the book, and you just want to know what happens (but what fun is that?), there?s a major spoiler here.

Vlite 1.0 Final

Windows Vista from Microsoft takes a lot of resources, we all know that. So here is the tool for easy removal of the unwanted components in order to make Vista run faster and to your liking. vLite can also create the bootable ISO and apply the tweaks directly.

This tool doesn’t use any kind of hacking, all files and registry entries are protected as they would be if you install the full version only without the components you select for the removal.

It configures the installation directly, before the installation, meaning you’ll have to remake the ISO and reinstall it. This method is much cleaner, not to mention easier and more logical than doing it after installation on every reinstall.

Changes in v1.0 Final:
* new: ‘Windows Portable Devices’
* new: IIS and Halo 2 Compatibility options
* upd: ‘Natural Language’ (64bit leftovers)
* fix: Hotfixes cleanup when integrated before
* fix: ‘Defrag’ (Shrink ability saved)
* fix: ‘Game Explorer’ (gameux.dll popups)
* fix: ‘Internet Explorer’ (DX Web installer)
* fix: Memory Requirement option (Manual Install dependency)

25 Free high-quality Fonts

Freelance web designer Vitaly Friedman has put together a listing of his choice of the best 25 free fonts available online, and it’s very hard to argue with his choices. He plainly states that his bias is towards fonts that are useful in a business setting, rather than those that would be more at home “on a colourful teenager’s homepage”. Don’t miss the update at the top of the post including links to new fonts Fontin (seen here) and Delicious. Beautiful stuff.

Let's Shine in Black

LG Electronics recently unveiled the new addition on its Shine phone range, the ?Titanium Black? series. The most notable difference is the replacement of full-metal bodied case found on the original handset series with an elegant dark and sophisticated metallic grey. Both men and women would love this mature and refined finish.

iPhone Problem – Does Not Support Flash

Here’s another iPhone problem – it does not support flash. Bill Perry of flashdevides.net reviews his brand new iPhone revealing that on the Safari browser, flash content becomes unreadable. Bill prove his claim by opening nike.com from his iPhone’s Safari browser, and in the end, he got this following page:

Bill tried some alternatives; using Quicktime to play .SWF files and downloading Adobe Flash Player but still it doesn’t help. Here’s something I don’t understand, if iPhone can play YouTube flash video, how come they missed Safari browser out?

So after all the weakness of iPhones being reveal one after another, will the sales also high rise when it reaches Asia? Will you buy one? I know I will.

WinTabber - All Applications In Tabs

One main reason why we like Firefox so much is because of its tab-browsing. The tabs are great, it organizes all your browser windows under one application (in this case, firefox) so you don’t have to alt-tab too much.

Folks at WinTabber have been very thoughtful; they came out with a light window application that allows you to open any windows application in tabs. That’s right, that means you can tab all applications like Live Messenger, browsers, Photoshop, MS Word, etc all under one light program – WinTabber. The second good news, it’s free so you really might want to check it out.

This is how WinTabber looks like after launch. Any program you add into WinTabber will be gone from your Taskbar, increasing more room for other stuff.

WinTabber also comes with few shortcut keys, helping you to manage your navigation better. If you like a clean Taskbar, here’s another application that minimizes your application into the System Tray.

Pownce - Like Twitter But Better (beta)

What is Pownce

Pownce is a new startup by Kevin Rose, founder of Digg.com. In a nutshell Pownce behaves like Twitter but more functionality. Besides updating your fellow friends and followers what you’ve been up to, Pownce allows you to send files, share events and post link messages. It is an AIR a.k.a Adobe Integrated Runtime (formerly known as Apollo) application, this means it can run either on web or as a desktop application.

What can Pownce do?

Send instance messages, link, files and events.

These are the basic yet core functions of Pownce. As a registered user of Pownce you are allow to exchange texts, links and files (up to 10Mb) with friends you added (provided they are users of Pownce too). You can even create and announce particular events. Here’s a screenshot on creating events and how events look like.

Group friends in sets

One function I long waiting to see but did not happen in Twitter is this -, able to group friends by categories. Here in Pownce, you can do that. The good thing about set is, you are able to send files to the friends in the group at once.

Filter your notes

In the long run, you’ll surely have tones of messages stacked within your account and Pownce knows that. So they come out with function enabling you to sort your view by “Messages“, “Links“, “Files“, “Events“, “Replies“, and “Send by Me“. I find this extremely useful. You will not want to look through a long list of messages just to look for a particular link post by your friend months ago.

Play with themes

Pownce comes with 4 theme templates, but what I would like to see here is an option to customize our own theme.

Notification management

Notifications are sent to e-mails. Here in Pownce you have the filter and choose which amongst you to receive in emails.

Pownce on Desktop

Pownce on desktop uses the technology of AIR (Adobe Integrated Runtime). To get it working, you must be either on Windows or Mac (Linux version coming soon). If you already have a Pownce account, head over here to Pownce download page. Pownce desktop application does not have full ability compared to the web version, but it is enough for message, link and file communication; also creating events.
