With the recent number of Fail Whale’s on Twitter recently, there have been an increasing number of people that are looking to archive their Tweets elsewhere. Aside from the obvious benefit of keeping our messages regardless of what happens to this online service in the future, we can easily make every one of our Tweets [...]

Yesterday I received an email from BlogRush telling me that they had just trimmed 10,000 websites and that j2fi.net had passed their “strict Quality Guidelines and criteria”. Thanks … I think.
I know this site can pass strict quality guidelines for most online services because I keep it up to date, and it’s not completely full [...]
So after several hours of coding, I managed to integrate Google Maps into my sidebar to display the locations of visitors to this site (seen in the sidebar above the SMS area). In that time I was able to learn how to build KML files, integrate it into a Google API class and all sort [...]
I’d like to apologize to everyone who tried to view some of my images or download files from non-English translations of this site, as it appears this functionality has been failing for a little bit of time. Seeing as how more than 70% of my site traffic is not in English, I should have noticed [...]
Okay … call me cheap, but here’s yet another BOINC-related plugin. I’ve decided that this will be the last stand-alone BOINC Stats plugin I’ll release, and the next ones will allow users to display any of the projects that are currently available without using seperate plugins that are pretty much the same.

Folding@Home is a distributed computing project with the goal of better understanding protein folding, misfolding and related diseases. I recommend anyone that has some extra clock cycles on their computer to contribute towards this and other worthy distributed computing projects.
Folding@Home [...]
SETI Stats is a WordPress plugin that displays your current SETI@Home Stats. This was put together in a short amount of time, so it’s a little light on the features. Currently, the plugin will display the total credit and average credit values, as well as your team name (if applicable).
In the future I hope to add [...]
Update: For those of you interested in getting Global Translator 0.6 to work with FireStats, go here.
I’ve had several requests from people who use Omry Yadan’s FireStats and want to use Davide Pozza’s Global Translator Plugin, as the two plugins tend to behave poorly together. For anyone that hasn’t used these two together, what happens [...]
