The League of Justice (i.e. the StackOverflow trilogy) stickers arrived today in the mail! YAY YAY YAY! Somehow or other, there were two StackOverflow stickers, along with a ServerFault and SuperUser one, in my envelope, when there should have been only three total, but this is awesome! I will post pictures of the stickers soon!

I was surfing around on SuperUser today, and found a mention to a tool from Apple that I hadn’t heard of before. It’s called the iPhone Configuration Utility, which allows you to examine logs from your iPhone or iPod Touch, to apply configuration and provisioning profiles, and more. The tool is very interesting! [Download: Windows|Mac]

On Tuesday, the awesome guys at Stack Overflow finally gave us addicted users a chance to receive some trilogy stickers! A few weeks ago, they received their order of 40,000 StackOverflow, ServerFault, SuperUser, and How-To Geek stickers, and now, if users send in a self-addressed stamped envelope, they will find some sitting in their mailbox [...]

The Twitpocalypse Returns
In my last post, I explained what truly went on in the Twitpocalypse, which dealt with tweet IDs passing the limits of the 32-bit signed integer (from -2,147,483,647 to +2,147,483,647), which is the most common datatype in use in computer applications today. Yet, whilst computer science has limits embedded into its structure, Twitter does not [...]

Drop.io Site Redesign
Today, the layout on the homepage of the popular private file sharing service Drop.io was altered and redesigned. The new interface has a more concise aesthetic with graphical excellence.

Wordpress.com blogs have always lacked the feature of adding a custom favicon to a blog, which minimizes the possible level of customization. For those who don’t know what a favicon is, it’s the logo or picture you see next to the name of the website in your browser’s location (address) bar or tab bar. For example, the default Wordpress.com favicon is a big white W in a blue circle with a drop shadow.
But to change that, Wordpress has come up with a new and brilliant idea: Blavatars!!!
