Spam description with my name in it
John Graham Cumming is maintaining his Spammer’s Compendium and he is giving names to spam techniques. I reported some time ago one technique used in PayPal phishing emails and he created a method: Cross your fingers and click (UH!Mustaca!HTML) What: Making what looks like a valid link to PayPal turn into a link to a phishing site using a FORM and a cleverly constructed INPUT tag.

Olympus is not dead, not even sleeping
I am a big fan of Olympus’ digital cameras. I own a C 750 UZ and the SLR E-500 together with its “accessories” Zuiko Digital lenses 14-45mm, 40-150mm, 18-180mm and the FL36 Olympus flash. I heard rumours that Olympus is not fighting anymore on the photography market. Nothing can be so far away from the truth. Here is the proof of the good news : 1. Zuiko Digital Lenses 2. All SLR Cameras and especially the new SLR cameras E-410, E-510 and the famous E-1 successor Also, there are a bunch of new compact cameras which are top models. Here are all the news from Olympus (link to Dpreview.com)

Old blog imported into WordPress
Hurrrrayyyyyy…. because 1111mb.com is again alive, I managed to import everything here. Here is how : 1. Install on your hosted WordPress.org blog the plugin http://www.technosailor.com/wordpress-to-wordpress-import/ 2. Export everything locally 3. Import into wordpress.com (Manager->Import->Wordpress WXR) Done !
Old Blog still online
My old blog before moving to 1111mb.com is still online. Click here to visit it
My blog is gone …
The provider who was hosting my blog has just dissappeared from the Internet. It was called 1111mb.com and now the domain is available for re-registration. Shit, I wanted to pay them to host my blog in a professional way. Now, I am trying to find something alternative. I will import the old posts (I have a backup 😉 ) into WordPress.com. I will do this manually, because it is not possible to do this in another way.
