I’ve been in contact with Digg quite a few times today and we were finally able to get our domain unbanned! We have also added a “Digg” button in the bookmarks bar located underneath a post’s title to make submitting an article a little easier for you.

I normally don’t post about about WordPress upgrades, but this one is extremely important for anyone running version 2.1.1 that was just released a few days ago. Apparently a hacker got access to the WordPress.org server and inserted some malicious code into the download:

I’m not sure how I missed it, but on Wednesday Opera revealed a new “speed dial” feature that is currently available in their latest weekly release (thanks to XPGeek in our forum for pointing this out!).

Is Google overrated? Well, it probably depends on who you’re talking to, and it’s arguable either way. Recently, Donna Bogatin of ZDNet, and Danny Sullivan of SearchEngineLand.com debated over this very issue.

There was no doubt that hackers would develop cracks to get Windows Vista illegally, but as it turns out a crack isn’t really needed. That’s because a new brute force method has been found that will continuously try product keys until Vista accepts one of them. At a rate of 20,000 keys per hour (480,000 per day) it might take a few hours or days to find one that works.

Last year when Sony dealt with a massive recall of notebook batteries, it was a costly situation they had to deal with. In fact, the recall cost nearly $444 million after the 10 million batteries were taken care of!
