I’m trying to eliminate a few clicks when uploading a lot of images at once using my Flickr2Facebook tool. I figured that if you’re uploading a lot of Flickr photos at once, you probably want them going into the same Facebook photo album. To make that easier, I added a “click here to [...]

I saw 300 (2007) last night on the Imax, and I thought it was visually stunning. The stylized violence was incredible to watch, although it was basically Sin City (2005) with sandals.
Having read about Iran’s negative reaction to how “Persians” are portrayed in the film before-hand, while I munched my popcorn, I was watching [...]

Ok, this is the coolest thing I’ve seen in a while: the entire cast of Battlestar Galactica as Simpsons characters. And by coolest, I mean nerdiest. And by while, I mean since yesterday. But still, common! This…is…AWESOME!

I made some really quick revisions to the bookmarklet I posted yesterday. All the javascript is now loaded in dynamically so if I make any changes, you won’t have to download it again

You can check it out right [...]

I’m been using the Zipcar car-sharing service for almost a year now and still love it. It’s great for someone like me that lives downtown, doesn’t own a car, and needs a car every-now-and-again to run out to Ikea or somewhere. Not to mention, it’s great to show a history of car insurance [...]

A couple of months ago, I blogged about the security holes in the ePass system, the online application that allows you to login to Canadian government websites. It all started when I noticed some fundamental flaws in the Canadian passport website after Chris had already exposed last April how generally frustrating it is to [...]

Now that I’ve finally joined this Facebook-thing, and Facebook has image gallery functionality and an API to use it, why is there no easy way for me to dump photos from Flickr to Facebook? All I need is a nice bookmarklet or something to click a Flickr photo and send it into Facebook. [...]
