Maybe you ought to *REALLY* checkout Drupal. It has nothing to do with the *nukes( and is a very solid and clean content management framework used by many high end companies around the world).
And if you dont know how uch a USD is worth (since it is declining faster then the trust in the US goverment), see pound in euros or any other currency
The problm with skype is that is is very hard to block. if there is a network connection towards the internet (natted or not 80 or other port), it will find it and get there. BTW: you are confusing port80 which skypes uses locally vs port 80 fo DST address (that is, unless you/are/ the internet:-)
also, be sure to read the PDF linked on my blog. It address the security issues as well on how to stop skype getting thru. Good read IMHO.

drupal is more than a php based blog, I have been using it since 4 years and I like to think of it as an application framework than can act as a blogserver as myblog is. Drupal was described as community plumbing but now "simpley" is an "...open source content management platform.
Out of the box it can do a lot, has clean code, a really cool development and support community and lots of high profile (read: often slashdotted) sites are hosted on drupal such as kerneltrap and spreadfirefox
Drupal is on the forfront of technology. It was one of the first to use real taxanomy, clean URL's and distributed authentication. The name drupal? That is another story

This is absurd. It undermines the basic principles that led the internet grow up to the currect scale. Those who understand BGP and AS-es as well as Provider Independent and Provider Aggregatable Ip space, know this is the end.
And the BGP tables are growing faster than most routers can hold anyway.
No more soft inbound I quess...;-)
So whats next? I would like to have the.com domain structure... or what the heck, give me the root (.)
For god's sake, it's web mail with a really big quota!
he then continous:
1. Giving users a lot of space. Okay, this isn't rocket surgery. Disks have been getting cheaper for a long time now. Do you honestly expect to see other large (and even mid-tier) web mail providers not increasing their offerings to match or surpass those of Gmail? It seems like a no-brainer to me.
2. Proving virtual folders, conversations, search-based message lists, or whatever you want to call them. So we've got threading (not new) plus virtual folders (not new) in a single mail interface. Well, stop the presses! It's amazing to think that no mail clients have offered this functionality in the last 5-7 years! Oh, wait. They have.
3. Adding context-sensitive ads to your mail. Yippie! I'm gonna switch right away so I can start seeing SPAM that I cannot filter even in my previously non-spam mail. Sign me up!
It's not hip anymore, unless you work for a company that is still in the pre-dot-com-hype-cycle, but there used to be a time when putting an @ (at) sign in a name or a brand would create this e-internet feeling. corry even started the//dont abuse the at sign compaign somewhere in 2000.
During the rise of this @buse (atbuse?), a Dutch TV show for kids called z@ppelin started out. It's primary a TV show, but like any multi-channel-format thingy, they ought to have a website as well.
When they first aired their commercials with the URL in it, i felt sorry for all the kids. They url was z@ppelin.nl and I know most RFC's by heart so I//knew at-signs are not allowed in hostnames or domainnames. So typing in this URL would lead the kid towards a friendly IE page cannot be found. And even dad -who works as an IT consultant- couldnt solve it because they never teached him anything about open standards during his elite MCSE training of 4 days.
Or so I thought...
And then the commercial aired again. And again. And I started wondering, they are not that stupid at our national broadcast organisation. And then it hit me, the use the user:password@fullyqualifieddomainname trick; where the user is z, the password is empty which leads to user z @ host ppelin.nl.
So all usering logged in are the user Z and the domainname is ppelin.nl! Neat I thought, cool trick! (See for your self by going to//ppelin.nl)
Years passed... And then... Microsoft f*cked up again, a huge//hole -big enough to drive a truck through- showed up in Internet Exploiter. One can misuse the user:password@fqdn in a bad way. Microso~1 promissed there won't be any hotfixes during the month December 2003. So they ignored this bug. And they ignored... up to the point that banks took down their online service because of the risk of URL spoofing
So micoshaft//wrote an entry in their kbase, asking endusers... to stop clicking on the blue underline things (we like to call them links) in the browser and type the full URL -including javascript!- in the browser. Well, that didnt do the trick Redmond!
Once their usability is a mousepointer department heared about this -days later- they decided there must be another way. Stop support of putting userid, password in a URL;
Microsoft will soon release a software update for IE that will end that browser's ability to accept Web URLs (Uniform Resource
Locators) that hide the address of the Web page being displayed using the @ symbol. The update will remove a feature that
is being exploited in scams that use spoof Web sites to harvest personal information from unsuspecting Internet users, Microsoft
said in a note posted on its Web page Tuesday.
This will not only break the//HTTP standard (now that would be a primer) but also the hearts of thousends of young childeren trying to access http://www.z@ppelin.nl. And not seeing a cute site but a friendly IE page cannot be found error on a saterday morning. I can feel the pain..

some snaps i made for the new infrastructure (proposed, i am not in control there)
drupal had a patch out very very fast. but you still need to upgrade to take "advantage" of it (as spreadfirefox.org and others didnt!)
mozilla.org isnt run on drupal (YET!), spreadfirefox.org is.

no, i am afraid you are missing the point. reread my posting (economist and the "say we have a perfect market" axiomas are not unknow o me)

Yes, thats how economist sound like alright. In The Real World, we have sysadmins, netmasters and .. God forbids... customers and users.

I know, lies damn lies and statistics. and IE has more than 110% of the browsermarket and all that.
But according to w3schools the decline of IE (hence: the rise of mozilla) started a couple of month ago, in may.
Moz is gaining between 0.5 - 0.8 per month and IE is losing 0.2 per month. But then again, just wait untill Bill sees this...
