Recentyl, it appears Javascript has been a bit broken in my Firefox installation. Today I realised that Firefox has been updated to 3.6, so i got the update, knowing that IE-Tab would not be available, but that there is a new adin, called Coral IE Tab which is compatible with Firefox 3.6, and so I can both use firefox, and websites that insist on Internet Exploder.

I have started using Twitter Digest to post a daily update of all my tweets. Unfortunately it had got itself into a bit of a loop, and was posting tweets that were anouncing new blog posts. Ooooh, lots of track back pings!
Twitter Digest allows you to ignore @replies. So i found where it was doing that
// Are we dropping replies?
if (get_option('ws_td_drop_replies') && preg_match('/^@.*/', $tw_data->text)) {
continue;
}
and used that as the basis for ignoring tweets anouncing new blog posts, by adding in the entry
// Eddie Brown Mod - drop posts that have been anounced on twitter.
if (preg_match('/^New blog post:.*/', $tw_data->text)) {
continue;
}
I checked the regular expression using Regex Plant: Online regular expression tester

Looks like the automatic upgrade worked.
Maybe my twitter digests start working again now. 2.9.1 is supposed to fi a problem with scheduled posts.

I have mostly been posting short comments via Twitter. I thought these would then pull through to my Blog…. but apparently not.
And I was trying to ensure there was some more content on this blog.

Amazon
Whilst google product search allows me to easily find prices for products at loads of places, shopping for books used to be a bit of a grind.
For the last couple of years, when i am buying books I have been using Book Brain to search for the cheapest provider – and with many places now not charging for delivery, its almost a case of just buying each individual items from the cheapest place.
