Tuesday, 1 February 2011. Having your browser store your favourites is annoying, you can't access them (easily) from elsewhere and if your computer dies, you format it or just change browser you run the risk of losing them. I store mine here so they can be accessed from anywhere easily and they gain the bonuses of redundancy and backupedness. OverClocked ReMix - Video Game Music Community. Music, Videogames, Interest.

A promising start for SpiderOak
https://bbrks.me/spideroak
A promising start for SpiderOak. Following up from my previous post, Dropbox, I love you but you're bringing me down. I have been trying out SpiderOak. To backup and sync my files rather than settling rather unhappily for Google Drive. The whole premise of SpiderOak is that it encrypts files locally on your machine before it uploads them. By doing this, in theory, only you are able to read your files. So, these are backed up, but in order to sync them to another machine. I need to set up a Sync folde...

Stop reinventing the scrollbar. We don't need page numbers on the web, you can scroll your way through a piece of text at the flick of a finger.

Stop reinventing the scrollbar. We don't need page numbers on the web, you can scroll your way through a piece of text at the flick of a finger. But how do you know how far through an article you are? I came across a discussion. On Hacker News today about making indicators to display your progress while reading an article. Something that looked a little like this…. You scroll down to move the indicator bar across. It just doesn't make sense. But Ben", I hear you say. Yes, yes it will random dude. Simply ...

https://bbrks.me/multiple-ghost-blogs-lighttpd
Installing multiple Ghost blogs with Lighttpd and forever. This will be a super simple guide on how to quickly install multiple Ghost blogs on a Linux server, running Lighttpd as an internal proxy. This guide also takes you through running Ghost through forever, which ensures it is always running. You don't need the proxying, but if you don't want to be messing around with port numbers it's the easiest way to set stuff up. But I'll reiterate here so it's all in one place. We need to configure each of the...

https://bbrks.me/cocoa-development-from-rubycocoa-obj-c-swift
Cocoa development. From RubyCocoa - Obj-C - Swift. I've been looking for a tiny little program for ages. It seems really simple, but I can't for the life of me find one that does what I want! I wanted a countdown utility in my OS X menubar. Always visible, always looming. I wanted it to panic me when working towards a deadline. Timers existed, but nothing could count down towards an absolute date or time, just a relative time. I quickly moved onto Objective-C before wasting any more time. Remembering tha...

Sonos podcasts via Android and Pocket Casts. Sonos, sadly has never had a great reputation with podcasts. They just plain don't work. The proposed workarounds, by using services such as Stitcher tend to fall short of available shows and usability.
