Adventures of a Web Vigilante: Character Assassination and online harassment: How to protect yourself
http://katwomanofsteele.blogspot.com/2009/02/character-assassination-how-to-protect.html
Adventures of a Web Vigilante. Thursday, February 12, 2009. Character Assassination and online harassment: How to protect yourself. So about a year and a half ago, I made the mistake of dating someone I shouldn't have. After we broke up about 3 months later, he has since harassed me on the phone, via text, created fake accounts on YouTube, and email. I am hoping this will help someone else deal with at least *some* of online harassment/defamation. Http:/ ws.arin.net/whois. Http:/ abuse.yahoo.com. 3) If...

Adventures of a Web Vigilante: January 2010

Adventures of a Web Vigilante. Tuesday, January 5, 2010. 2010: Being Resolute in my Resolutions. Alright 2010, I *think* I'm ready for ya. 2009 had me for a loop, with two businesses* and two non-profits*, multiple projects some of which got done, some didn't, living on savings because I was focused on the afore mentioned corps, oh, and my social life, centered around networking - both online social and in-person, and not to mention being a single mom on top of it all. E) Secret local political web serie...

Adventures of a Web Vigilante: Inauguration version 2.0
http://katwomanofsteele.blogspot.com/2009/02/inauguration-version-20.html
Adventures of a Web Vigilante. Friday, January 23, 2009. Inauguration version 2.0. So I went to inauguration with 1.8 million of my closest friends. The idea was to do a documentary, blog about it, and do streaming video via ustream.tv. I built the site. And added a channel on ustream, and found this great site where you can stream from your phone! Dumping the footage, I didn't get as good of stuff as I was hoping. I didn't have time in between shots to white balance, and it shows. I was hoping t...But i...

http://katwomanofsteele.blogspot.com/2008/09/my-love-hate-relationship-with-my-cell.html
Adventures of a Web Vigilante. Wednesday, September 3, 2008. My love hate relationship with my cell carrier: also titled "how to tether a Palm Centro via Bluetooth". Ok So after 2 hrs on the phone with tech support and sales at sprint, I've finally accomplished it: using my phone as a modem aka tethering. And you can do it too! So, to take the pain out, I'll help you walk through it. Specs: MacBook Pro OS 10.4.1, Palm Centro, Sprint with phone as modem service option. I finally got someone who understood...

Adventures of a Web Vigilante: Back to the drawing board... sort of
http://katwomanofsteele.blogspot.com/2011/04/back-to-drawing-board-sort-of.html
Adventures of a Web Vigilante. Tuesday, April 5, 2011. Back to the drawing board. sort of. So, in my web dev/design years, I know I've had to always "learn" and grow with the technology as it changes literally everyday. I was hoping Facebook would keep something I grew very fond of - FBML. Alas, much like BASIC, we must move forward and develop according to the great mythical spaghetti code monster in the sky as FB has dropped FBML. And btw - here is the FB page that I added the simple embedded iFramed.

Adventures of a Web Vigilante. Monday, April 13, 2009. People as "Honeypots": Tricking the Scammers at their own Game. According to the FBI, internet fraud rose 33% last year. Now, you have to be very careful when dealing with these people of course, but if you're retired from your 90's dot com boom success, bored and know the internet well, here's a fun hobby for you.

http://katwomanofsteele.blogspot.com/2010/03/adventures-in-web-development-version.html
Adventures of a Web Vigilante. Monday, March 29, 2010. Adventures in Web Development version 132.9: Or the Joy of Open-Source. Working on a membership driven, Joomla 1.5, Community Builder site. Have I lost you yet? Alright, well Joomla is a CMS system (see first post re: Content Management Systems*) and is a free, open source web application. This particular site though has given me much heartache in the development, and as it has for my client. At times with these mods, you don't. Another $ app: CorePH...

Adventures of a Web Vigilante: October 2009

Adventures of a Web Vigilante. Monday, October 26, 2009. Facebook does it again. ugh. So, in my zeal to fix something they don't believe is broken and after begging/stalking the Engineering team last time for a change to the way feeds are displayed, I am going to *attempt* to write my first facebook application - a "Custom Feed Filter". Here's a wireframe of how it will work:. So I am starting with a Facebook developer account through Joyent Cloud. I found a wonderful step-by-step developer guide.

Adventures of a Web Vigilante: November 2010
http://katwomanofsteele.blogspot.com/2010_11_01_archive.html
Adventures of a Web Vigilante. Monday, November 29, 2010. I Wanna New Host and Tech Update on My FB Feed Filter. And working with db driven web apps like Joomla and Wordpress are impossible - the data connections are incredibly slow and at times would time out. Frustrating for myself, and my clients when their site would go down, particularly while editing. As I have been doing web design and development since 1996 (yikes I'm old! Surely this one won't go down. And re: the FB app I was working on - sorry...
