this tool is important for bloggers. it works like this *:
you are at a website, noticing something you’d like to blog about. you not only make a quick screen grab, but this quick grab is posted online, and now you have a link to it.
older versions of wordpress made you select images from a url. you simply could not upload an image from your desktop. this tool would come in very handy under such circumstances.
it’s not unlike the new functionality that Firefox will have (not in 3.5, but the following). the functionality i’m referring to will be: you are at a website, noticing a line of text that you’d like to tweet. you simply select that text and tweet it, using firefox’s sexy new feature.
conclusion: it’s all about blogging, and it’s all about web based applications. no more need to copy/paste files to the desktop. just link to the cloud.

directions: type this in front of the url of site you’re wanting to screen grab from: just add ‘aviary.com/’ in front of the url

using .htaccess files is a pain in many cases (mostly because an everyday server, such as Dreamhost, uses binary transfer of FTP files). also, the official Apache website does not recommend using .htaccess files.
the solution: use a php file as a rewrite file.
procedure:
1) create a php file and paste the following code inside:
<?php header(’Location: http://www.yoursite.com/yourblogfolder/’); ?>
2) name the file ‘index.php’
3) rename your current index file to ‘indexNO.html’ (or anything just to break that link)
4) now ‘index.php’ will be your index page, and it will re-direct the user to the other directory (or folder) (in this case, it will redirect to ‘yourblogfolder’ directory, and see the ‘index’ file in that folder)

if you don’t have a certain kind of phone - for example, i just bought an extra phone (i’m a drug dealer and i needed a burner) which is metro pcs cell phone company, er, service provider, um, my carrier…ok. and i do what twitter says to activate my cell phone to enable it to tweet (http://twitter.com/bucktowndigital)(http://twitter/sergi_bosch) but it won’t work because “we don’t currently support SMS to this number”. So, could it be because of the area code? i hate to give up the phone because i’m a major drug dealer and need to coordinate a columbian buy. if you’re still reading this, go away.

you’re probably reading this because you tried a:hover to inline style a link. msyelf, i have a Tumblrog (tumblr.com) and not enough energy to properly code it. so in those instances i use inline styles. often. too often. okay, i’ll stop using inline styles to create a hover effect on a link starting today. but here it is in case you need it; and in case i break my promise.

i had a document in my google docs titled: “wordpress: backing up”
i couldn’t remember the title. so i searched for “wordpress back up” and it couldn’t find the document.
conclusion: google, the kings of search, can’t get search right
