    It would be great if it worked in firefox. I won't use IE just to have this little toolbar.

  2. Plone is very good on Plone 2.0: eWEEK Reviews, Raves About OS Software · · Score: 0

    We use plone on our corporate website at http://thebbgn.net

    We are actually testing the rollout and it randomly takes people to the new site. We found it to be very easy to customize and add content. Our major problem was we have so much content and very little time to actually add it so our website was constantly needing updating. With Plone/Zope we can set dates for content to appear and actually work on it in "visible" mode and then when we are ready we set it to "published" so it will appear to the visitors.

    Check it out:

  3. Patent Baby Making on Subdomains Part Of The Patent Frenzy · · Score: 1, Funny

    I'm going to patent the process of making babies. I of course came up with this concept when I was 16 so I'm sure I was the first as I owned the world that day. Just think about all the money I will make on an hourly basis!!!

    Of course if anyone has some prior "art" feel free to post it ;)

    Error Occurred While Processing Request
    Error Diagnostic Information
    ODBC Error Code = S1000 (General error)

    [Microsoft][ODBC Microsoft Access Driver] Could not use '(unknown)'; file already in use.

    Hint: The cause of this error is usually that you have opened your database in its native environment using exclusive mode. This is a particular problem for Microsoft Access because the default open mode for all databases (unless you specify otherwise) is exclusive. You can (and should) override this behavior in Access using the Multiuser/ODBC section of the Options dialog.

    Another possible cause is that you have set up your ODBC data source to be opened in exclusive mode. Unless you only want one user at a time to access your database you should never set ODBC data sources to be opened in exclusive mode.

  19. Linux on Sneaking Open Source Software Through the Front Door · · Score: 0

    Linux simply needs more support for games. Call me an idiot, but you know I'm right. The installation can't be any easier. In fact, I think it is easier than Windows. The only differences are the choices and layout. In Linux you have more choices and this can turn people away from using it. It makes them think and most people don't like that. Linux is an awesome OS with beautiful desktops and awesome services, but not very many games.

    If you don't want to pay $19.95 to have your email served to you via pop3 or even a web page why not put up a linux box and register a domain name...in a matter of days (only because of dns issues) you can have your very own email server....this would allow you to make the rules up and filter spam at will...plus you wouldn't have to pay $19.95 a month..
