Google Analytics support doesn't care? · 2 October 2009
A lot of people (me included) seem to be having problems changing their email address in Google Analytics account settings. It just seems that no one is there to help. Why? Where have all the support staff gone?
Here’s the thread at the support forum
Please somebody at Google, do something about this!

- all the thoughts wandering inside the head but not ending up anywhere
- all the undone work
- all the things that went wrong
- all desperate ideas that will never work
- all hesitation and indecisiveness

Red Hot Penguins · 6 January 2008
No, this time I’m not talking about Linux. ;) I’m talking about my favourite NHL team, Pittsburgh Penguins. They’ve been rock solid lately, and surprisingly their third goalie Ty Conklin has been one of the keys to success. I hope this streak continues and the Penguins will get to the playoffs. You know it’s a whole new game there…
Btw, does anyone know what has happened to Penguins Buzz? If my eyes don’t lie, there hasn’t been anything posted since 8th December. I hope the site gets updated soon, ‘cos I liked it a lot.
Can anyone suggest any other good blogs/sites about Pittsburgh Penguins? Besides the official site, of course.

Please, update your browser · 2 December 2007
Browsing the web with an out-dated browser is not very wise. There are all sorts of security risks involved. Besides, it’s a pain in the ass for every web developer and designer to make websites work with old browsers.
Let’s take a look at Internet Explorer 6 for example. We’re talking about a browser that is not developed anymore, because Internet Explorer 7 has come to replace it. IE6 also has been quite insecure. Still it is very much in use today, as these statistics prove.
Some good signs are to be seen though, but you could hope a quicker development in moving out of IE6:
IE6 usage stats (from January to October 2007):
usage has decreased in nine months from 42.3% to 34.5%
[ Source: W3Schools Browser Statistics ]How long will it approximately take to get to zero per cent?
The answer: almost 40 months which equals approximately 3.3 years
Although it seems very unsafe to use IE6, I can see the reasons behind it. It all comes down to three things:
- people get used to using a particular program
- people might not know they are using an outdated browser
- all web applications might not yet work with other browsers (yes, it is the web developer’s fault for designing stuff for one browser only).
Also the new UI of IE7 might be a little bit too much for some. When I first saw it, I was amazed. How can they mess it up like that and think that people will learn to use it right away?
But luckily, you’ve got other options than the IE browser family. It seems that Firefox has become the most popular browser. And I must say that it is for a reason. For instance, it had tabbed browsing enabled for ages before IE7 was introduced. It doesn’t have as concerning security issues as IE, and those issues get fixed much faster. And you’ve got a helluva choice of add-ons.
In conclusion, if you are using IE6 (or some even older browser) I suggest you take a look at IE7 or Mozilla Firefox and switch to one of them (and you can install both of them, if you want to). And if you get interested about other browsers (yes, there are even more!) you can take a look at evolt.org Browser Archive. Who said you don’t have options?!?

How to install PCLinuxOS 2007 · 27 August 2007
Check out this awesome how-to for installing PCLinuxOS 2007
I also recommend checking the comments related to the review/how-to.
I thought I’d do some sort of a installation manual myself, but why bother when someone has already done it so well.
