HOWTO: Palm Treo 755p in Linux
I recently purchased a Palm Treo 755p. One of the first things I did was to plug it into my Linux machine to try the syncing capabilities, since Linux distributions (I am currently using Ubuntu 7.04) tend to support Palm devices pretty well. But, when I plugged it in, I discovered that it was not recognized by the kernel. So, I figured out what was needed to make it function:
Postcard Virus Sets Up IRC Botnet
http://www.dailycupoftech.com/2007/05/29/the-anatomy-of-a-virus/
Looks like another yet another botnet is building up from a trojan being sent around as “Postcard.exe”. I followed the botnet to a new channel, and they have almost 450 clients there. Most of those seem to be clients fired off from the trojan. Hopefully, the Undernet admins can stop this one for now. Yes, I know that another one will pop right up, but since this particular beast is coded to join certain channels, maybe it will give helpless attachment-clickers a little bit of a break.
Baby Carrots – The Frugal Idea That’s Isn’t
Looks like those baby carrots aren’t such a great deal – you can lose both money and flavor by buying them.
Black Sheep, coming to the US in June. Holy…
Okay, this is the weirdest movie trailer I have seen in a LONG time. First, the description of the movie:
“On a vast New Zealand sheep station, a reckless genetic engineering experiment goes horribly wrong, turning sheep into bloodthirsty killers.”
Now, if the description isn’t strange enough for you, check out the trailer:

My birthday is coming up soon (Jan 24) and I would love it if someone made me this cake!
Performancing
I was reading an article over at Lifehacker about different blogging clients, and I ran into one I remember seeing a while back, “Performancing”. Performancing is an extension for Firefox, and lets the user choose between WYSIWYG and HTML editing of posts. I also noticed that Performancing also seems to be a company that provides blog metrics. The stats seem to be able to show posts, comments, views, and a whole slew of other information. I have signed up to try out this service over at http://performancing.com/ and hopefully I will see some nice statistics soon. And, I can see how their editor works for me.

HOWTO: PHP with MSSQL on Ubuntu 6.06
I recently set up an Ubuntu server that needed to access a MSSQL database. The php5-sybase package sort of worked (the queries appeared to work, but data was missing). So, I set out to build some .deb packages with MSSQL support built in.
