Best review ever of Veet hair removal gel … http://www.amazon.co.uk/review/RMSBINADT0S6S/ref=cm_cr_pr_perm?ie=UTF8&A Don't ask me how I found this.

Lots of talk about PHP Unit tests in my Twitter feed this evening. I think I need to look into that in more detail some time. @trepmal

@benhuson I had you mixed up with someone who was bought out by AVOS not that long ago.

@benhuson Have you changed jobs? Last I heard, you had been bought by some American company.

@benhuson Who is we? I thought you were working on Delicious or something along those lines.

Lolz @mkjones … "THIS SITE ISN'T POWERED BY WORDPRESS, SORRY EVERYONE :(" http://www.wpsheffield.com/

Awesome plugin by @bon for switching between user accounts http://lud.icro.us/wordpress-plugin-user-switching/. Really handy when building sites with different user roles.

My code just plummeted from a multi-hour execution time to 1 s courtesy of @Th0masMB

I think I forgot the link http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/join-my-multisite/ @jennybeaumont @ipstenu

Darn handy looking plugin from @ipstenu for adding users to your WHOLE WordPress multisite network.

Seems you foresaw a great chance in the weather here in Oslo @dinicmilan! This was my view out walking this morning … http://ryanhellyer.net/?attachment_id=5258

@Phil_Wheeler @jstr @ANZ_NZ That seems to be an unfortunate major problem with New Zealand banks. No idea why; it's just shear stupidity.

RT @Phil_Wheeler: Call centre staff just confirmed that special characters are not allowed in Internet Banking passwords. WTF @ANZ_NZ?!

@dinicmilan No snow on the ground here yet. It's cold, but there's been very little snow so far.

@dinicmilan The movies and TV shows seem to be mostly older ones. But that doesn't bother me much as I haven't seen most of them anyway.

Yup, Netflix was launched last week I think. There's a LOT of stuff on here. They even have subtitles for everything @TurcuCiprian

Just tried out this new Netflix service. Great to watch a movie legally for the first time in a very long while.

@PhilipHellyer My main issue with http://ryanhellyer.net, is that ryan@ryanhellyer.net is a dumb address.

Awesome plugin by @jakemgold for blocking access to a site … http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/restricted-site-access/. Excellent for use during development.

@MaryFrances110 @hollyrwalker Votes in submissions are irrelevant IMO. Always a bias towards crazies in voluntary polls unfortunately.

Nice description of differences between escaping, validating and santising data .. http://vip.wordpress.com/2011/10/13/key-differences-between-validation-and-sanitization/ (read the comments too)

@jennybeaumont Domain picking is turning out to be rather hard. No one seems to like http://helyr.com, so I guess I'll can that idea.

@jarledb It certainly would be. But it worries me to trust some tiny little countries domain name not to disappear randomly.

Is http://helyr.com okay to use as my domain name? Or is the misspelling too weird? /cc @PhilipHellyer

@trepmal @SiobhanPMcKeown Got me thinking about domains, so I bought http://helyr.com. Shorter and cheaper than hellyer dot com.

@LifeInNorway Egads! My Contact Form looks all munted. I smell a bug. It should still work though, despite it's tiny sized textarea.

The localhost plugin has been updated after a tip from @aaroncampbell http://geek.ryanhellyer.net/products/localhost/

@trepmal I also want hellyer dot com, but am sure as heck not paying the US$960 they want for it.

@trepmal I've tried contacting the owners of http://hellyeah.com but they didn't respond to my requests to buy the domain.

@trepmal That makes me want to come up with something humorous for http://ryanhellyer.com/. I'm not sure what though.

A bug on my site affected the code I tweeted about earlier. Here it is again http://geek.ryanhellyer.net/products/localhost/ @ipstenu

@jarret No, it was a nightmare. Good tutorials are hard to find and the codex page is awful. Knowing a little about servers would help.

@LifeInNorway I just found your terrific blog I blog my life in Norway at http://ryanhellyer.net/ and my homework at http://random.ryanhellyer.net/

@ipstenu Arghh, you just showed up a problem with my HTML minifier. It's minifying my source code Time to remove it I guess.

@Rarst @ipstenu @Tarendai Other plugin is more subtle, which could also be useful sometimes too.

@Rarst @ipstenu @Tarendai I took a peep at the "competitor". Mine is more "in yer face" and works when logged out, so I'll keep it going.

@Tarendai @rarst Darn. I didn't realise there was a plug-in already out there for that.

Know when you are on localhost when messing with hosts files http://geek.ryanhellyer.net/?p=2696. Concept courtesy of @konstruktors.

Cool new plugin from @pgibbs for BuddyPress translations http://wprealm.com/blog/buddypress-translations-to-help-translate-your-buddypress-site/

@bjornjohansen Spam Destroyer seems buggy with contact forms, BuddyPress, site registrations etc.

@bjornjohansen It is working very well for basic sites. It doesn't handle non blog comment forms well though.

The solution to my confusion, was that a leading zero represents an octal number. Answer courtesy of @markoheijnen and @no_fear_inc.

Any ideas on what is happening with my PHP script? It does weird stuff when I stick a zero in front … http://pastebin.com/yZSkCxhJ

New http://app.net WordPress widget from my colleague @Th0masMB http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/tmb-adn-embed-and-widget/

@ipstenu They're expensive too. I like the idea, but they're no panacea like some people make out.

@ipstenu These big companies need to distribute their EC2 instances across multiple EC2 data centers to avoid this happening.

@MaryFrances110 Are you still needing help with that WordPress issue you tweeted about the other day? I only saw it now.

@Hexxeh I want an Ubuntu tablet with a keyboard dock to use as my primary machine. So +1 on the "hurry up and release it"

@kgjerstad Bandy is of course far more popular in Sweden though. Definitely the wrong country for that. Still more popular than NZ though!

@kgjerstad I'm also injured, so not likely to be playing any time soon, if ever I'm thinking of trying Bandy at some point though.

@macsolve I've heard of people using Sphinx which I think they use on http://WordPress.org, but it looks a pain to setup.

@macsolve My Norwegian language skills are sketchy at best, my Swedish language skills … non existent

@keithdsouza Android phones do that by default. I assume there is some sort of export tool you get a dump of the data from.

Hmm, Chrome OS decided to switch me BACK to the non-OSX style of scrolling again. Guess that's what I get for using the beta channel!

@no_fear_inc @scottbasgaard Asterix is awesome. This is my current bedtime reading http://random.ryanhellyer.net/?attachment_id=105

@scottbasgaard It takes me so long to figure out the funny bits in Donald Duck that they are no longer funny.

@scottbasgaard I enjoy reading Asterix comic books. It's easier than Donald Duck as the humour doesn't get lost in the words so much.

If you speak Norwegian, I could do with some assistance with my homework http://random.ryanhellyer.net/sett-inn-et-av-verbene-i-riktig-form/

@SiobhanPMcKeown I put my rate on my website to scare people off. I don't have time for much extra work.
