Blog updated

Finally got around to updating this blog to 2014. Now, if only I could find some time to do some actual blogging. Who knows, this new design might just inspire me.

Changes in this blog

It’s probably about time to let my subscribers know that I’ve started blogging over at the AddonBakery Blog – so all posts which relate to my ExpressionEngine Addons will end up there (instead of here). If you have an interest in getting the latest news about SEO Lite, Simple Registration, et al. you should subscribe to this feed. This blog will be reserved for all non-addon specific ramblings. Who knows, I might also put up a portfolio here.

Welcome to the new location of my blog

Hi there. If you’re getting this through my feedburner feed you should note that the new address for my blog is bybjorn.com – check it out, yay! What I’ve done is used to combined magic of WordPress import, to move my content from bie.no, and Woothemes to get a new look. Since I’m a freelancer now I figgured I needed a blog, sorta to .. I don’t know, market my services or something.

How to stop MSN spam with Pidgin

For those of you who don’t know, Pidgin is an open source Instant Message client which supports MSN, ICQ, the jabber protocol (which means GTalk) etc. After installing it however, I started getting a lot of MSN spam. You know, IM’s from random people telling me to visit places where I could gamble with my money, or alternatively my health (with cheap pills). Turns out Pidgin defaults to letting everyone contact you.

Another reason to switch from WordPress to ExpressionEngine

Ok, this post had some info about switching to ExpressionEngine since WP was so insecure. It turns out my WP install was hacked and the content here was replaced by lots of spam links. I don’t know how to get the content back (unless it was indexed somewhere, took a quick google but didn’t find anything) .. Oh, the irony. Comments Comment by joao on 2010-01-08 22:38:42 +0000 that is a good point, i mean there is so many stories of wordpress being hacked that is time for people view alternatives, but wordpress is in people minds as the top “blog” platform and engine labs hasn’t made a top effort to promote a template system that is appealing.
