Freelancing is another way to earn

October 29, 2008 7 comments Freelancing

Oh, it seems that I am on a roll for posting money-making entries. Well, nothing is planned for. They just seem to fall into pieces on its own. And, yes, this is not the money-making blog that you are searching for if you originated from any search engine.

I have been roaming in the vast listing of wanted freelancers in GetAFreelancer.com and got picked on one of the bids that I placed on the site about months ago. I was commissioned to finish a project. The job requires me to have this and that into its rightful place. I’ve to do some simple CSS-ing and PHP-ing and HTML-ing. I could do graphic manipulations but I don’t want to specialize on that at this moment as I am working, call it day job, and I’m a bit picky when it comes to that matter so simply put I don’t have the time to work as a graphic artist – yet. I will be the programming guy for this side venture.

I will be giving you updates about what happens as I am still working on the project. Time(zone) difference between me and my client is a b*tch but I’ll try to work it out.

TinEye Was My Idea

Haha!

Not too long ago(way back in college), it popped in my little mind that Youtube might be able to filter pornographic scenes on the videos being uploaded to its servers. My fellow little minded friends would laugh just at the idea. I’ve even added that an Aaaahhh and Ooommms may be used to screen videos to. But no one ever took me seriously because I myself don’t fuckin’ take myself seriously.

Then…this post from my feed reader – which is Google Reader. TinEye released their invites-only beta site which would allow us, in the future, to search the net using image fingerprints. That which doesn’t use meta data for results but the actual relevance. Watch the video after the jump to learn more and secure the invite.

That little pop-up idea wasn’t very far fetched then, huh?

Feedburner versus PageRank

May 1, 2008 3 comments Short On Ideas, Web

I had my monthly bandwidth eaten up 4 days before April ended. So, www.in-indie.org, was unavailable for that span of days. Today, the bandwidth is reset and I’ve upgraded the hosting plan and this is actually the first time that I used my work card to pay so, yeah, I’m happy though Unionbank is very sucky in there support as I have been requesting for my transaction password to be reset for more than two weeks and not even an auto response.

What surprised me today, though, is not that I received a message from Unionbank – because i haven’t – but that my blog now have a PageRank of 2 (two) and the feed count from Feedburner is zero (0). Is this a “versus” thing from this two Google things? Yes, I have been hoping to have PageRank but please don’t count out my little feed counts.

Remove Restriction Tool

Having problems with your Folder Options hidden? Or your Task Manager disabled? Editing the right fields in your system’s Registry might solve the problem but what if that too was disabled?

The advent of portable storage and MP3 players inspired many brilliant minds, who probably couldn’t afford one, to heckle on the clueless rich who treat their gadgets like a whore. That’s insert anywhere if the word is new to you.

Since I couldn’t get any ISP to grant me a subscription, I still to go to those overpriced public internet cafes to get my habitual internet fix. There is this one near where I live that just looks very snug and they even have Dell desktop systems. So, I plugged in my not-so-virgin PQI flash. Yes, it was recognized but it’s never listed in My Computer. So, I wondered why. (Continued…)

The new look of searching?

February 2, 2008 Write a Comment Web

The way Google display their search results have always been how they were back then. All the weight (bulk of text) are positioned to the left and everything else is elsewhere. I’m not complaining just as long as I get the best results for my searches but it wouldn’t really hurt if there is a step up to that.

Then came the step up! Google Labs are cooking up some new ways to showcase their search result. I love the mouse-less concept! I can navigate through the results using only my keyboard. Mouse sucks! Haha

Got myself a 2.3.2

January 19, 2008 1 comment Web, Wordpress

Twenty days ago…

WordPress 2.3.2 is an urgent security release that fixes a bug that can be used to expose your draft posts. 2.3.2 also suppresses some error messages that can give away information about your database table structure and limits and stops some information leaks in the XML-RPC and APP implementations.

Scary stuff, dude! As if I have drafts and some stalking hackers. But when Wordpress says urgent then it should be scary. So I got this blog a new sleeve to warm it – Download Wordpress 2.3.2.
