Try converting to a CSV file and then that should be uploadable to Gmail from memory.

DoorKnocker speaks words of wisdom. I've always found Bon Jovi very effective. Always, I'll Be There For You and Thank You For Loving Me have all been big hits when played acoustic on front lawns. Good lyrics if you just want to write them as well.

How do you quantify best? Fastest? Smallest compiled executable? Lowest memory usage when running your app? Really the answer depends on what you app is doing. If you want a straight answer then the Intel compiler. It hamstrings AMD processors though by not using SSE instructions on them...

Yeah but that's a footprint in and of itself - most sites don't host their own nameservers, just bigger higher traffic ones. So if you've got a money site and you have 35 tier 1 sites linking to it, all of which host their own nameservers on non-redundant IP addresses... then that stands out...

I prefer to use my domain registrars for nameservers rather than ones provided by hosts. GoDaddy for instance allow you to use their nameservers even for domains not registered with them. There's gazillions of sites using mns01 domaincontrol com and mns02 domaincontrol com as their name servers...

Do yourself a favour and upgrade to Windows 7. It's far more reliable and secure, plus it looks nicer and it's fast (unlike Vista). XP is ten years old, let it die.

I've never used YouTube for IM purposes, this is encouraging. Did you create an original video, or did you just rip n' twist an existing one? I'm just curious as to the thought process of people who target YouTube.

Generally public_html is the root folder and you'd have a subfolder per domain and that would just be the files such as wordpress and themes, but not the databases. These might be in another folder outside of public_html, depending on who you are with and how it's setup. As for cost, I think...

OK this sounds useful. I don't have a domain or directory setup yet but I'd been thinking about them recently and this sounds like a way to pick up some experience without the moderation hassle. So, noob question to start - does domain matter? Kinda hard to get an EMD for diverse articles.

Most unlimited hosting plans suck because the hosts stack huge amounts of sites on them and they end up overloaded and slow. The last shared host I used had around 4000 sites on the same server. Google are known to use loading times as a ranking factor, so I got myself a cheap VPS and host my...

I manage a website for a friend who runs a small business. I rarely have to do anything with the site, but tonight I thought I'd take a quick glance through the logs and just see if there was anything odd like hacking attempts or whatnot. And I found several GET requests for images, but not...

You're welcome, but that's what the thanks button is for ;)

It was encoded on itself three times but essentially it's this: ?><?php function list_pings($comment, $args, $depth) { $GLOBALS['comment'] = $comment; ?> <li id="comment-<?php comment_ID(); ?>"> <?php comment_author_link(); ?> <?php } ?> <?php if (function_exists('wp_list_comments')) ...

I have a number of different Wordpress blogs on different domains all on the same host, each with their own MySQL database. I'm moving hosts and getting everything setup. I know that since Wordpress 3.0 there's been a Multisite features and I wondered if any of the major bloggers were using it...

So after you re-installed Wordpress and the theme and changed passwords, you've tested the site using several proxies and different browsers and not had any redirects? I'd say it's clean then. If you want to PM me the address, I'll double check for you. I've had the same happen to me before.
