  1. Gallery 3 Released

    Gallery 3.0, the latest version of the widely used open source photo gallery manager, has finally been released a year and a half after active development on the project started. A large number of modules are already available for Gallery 3 over at GalleryModules.com. I already installed Gallery 3 on my server here and imported…

  2. Lego Green Lantern Power Battery

    This Lego Green Lantern Power Battery may be the best thing ever (at least for this week). This would be amazing as-is, but the creator of this at JustJon.Net hit it out of the park by a) making the battery actually light up, and b) having the light triggered by an RFID-equipped ring.

    Add Linked Images to Gallery is a WordPress plugin that I suspect has a fairly limited number of uses given the very specific nature of what it does, but if you are one of those folks who need this, it is a lifesaver. The plugin will scan the IMG tag on new posts looking for…

  7. Self-Tracking Apps for Android

    I’ve been using Zealogs.com to do a lot of self-tracking (seriously — I track several dozen different daily variables from weight to blood pressure, etc), but recently decided for a number of reasons it would be better to do my tracking locally on my Android. So, off I went to the Marketplace and after installing…
