I use WordPress for this blog, and happy with it. But it’s not for everybody: you need a database, it’s very impressive, plugins, themes, users, comments, regular update, kinda geeky install and the default installment is 7.9 mb. And I needed a CMS for a small website/portfolio; it needs something small, not impressive (visually), easy [...]
My favorite open source project ever, FlashDevelop has released: FlashDevelop 3.0.0 RTM (English, 4MB) . I started with coding in the Flash IDE, when I realized that there are better programs to code in I started working with SE|PY (ActionScript 2 only). I really loved that program, but it never made it to ActionScript 3 [...]

A few days back I noticed that my sIFR (wikipedia about sIFR) headers that are links didn’t work anymore. I really couldn’t remember doing that before, sIFR links always worked and now they only worked in IE7 but not in Firefox. Today I decided to fix the problem (or remove it ) and it was [...]
A while back I started writing this article but never finished it. So today I did… I like using opensource, and try to give something back to the people who make them. So if I see bugs I report them, and if I see improvements I’ll send a massage or a sketch of the improvement. [...]
I have written about the creation of FLV (Flash Video) with freeware/open-source software before. But I’ve made the mistake to talk about to many different aspects of the FLV: the encoder, the offline flv-player and the web flv-player. This will be corrected in this post, so after reading this you will know: Which programs you [...]

This is a little tool I build with the help of Screenweaver. A dir(ectory) 2 XML tool. I was looking for a program that could create an XML file from a directory. I found some programs that could help me with this (commandline, Printfolder, Dirhtml) but none of them creates an XML at once. So [...]
