  43     &lt;p&gt;While writing tests for the &lt;a href=&quot;http://schlitt.info/applications/blog/exit.php?url_id=4626&amp;amp;entry_id=608&quot; title=&quot;http://ezcomponents.org&quot;  onmouseover=&quot;window.status=&#039;http://ezcomponents.org&#039;;return true;&quot; onmouseout=&quot;window.status=&#039;&#039;;return true;&quot; onclick=&quot;window.open(this.href, &#039;_blank&#039;); return false;&quot;&gt;eZ Components&lt;/a&gt; &lt;a href=&quot;http://schlitt.info/applications/blog/exit.php?url_id=4627&amp;amp;entry_id=608&quot; title=&quot;http://ezcomponents.org/s/Webdav&quot;  onmouseover=&quot;window.status=&#039;http://ezcomponents.org/s/Webdav&#039;;return true;&quot; onmouseout=&quot;window.status=&#039;&#039;;return true;&quot; onclick=&quot;window.open(this.href, &#039;_blank&#039;); return false;&quot;&gt;Webdav&lt;/a&gt; component I stumbled over an &lt;a href=&quot;http://schlitt.info/applications/blog/exit.php?url_id=4632&amp;amp;entry_id=608&quot; title=&quot;http://issues.ez.no/IssueView.php?Id=13324&amp;amp;amp;activeItem=1&quot;  onmouseover=&quot;window.status=&#039;http://issues.ez.no/IssueView.php?Id=13324&amp;amp;amp;activeItem=1&#039;;return true;&quot; onmouseout=&quot;window.status=&#039;&#039;;return true;&quot; onclick=&quot;window.open(this.href, &#039;_blank&#039;); return false;&quot;&gt;issue&lt;/a&gt; with &lt;a href=&quot;http://schlitt.info/applications/blog/exit.php?url_id=4628&amp;amp;entry_id=608&quot; title=&quot;http://www.konqueror.org/&quot;  onmouseover=&quot;window.status=&#039;http://www.konqueror.org/&#039;;return true;&quot; onmouseout=&quot;window.status=&#039;&#039;;return true;&quot; onclick=&quot;window.open(this.href, &#039;_blank&#039;); return false;&quot;&gt;Konqueror&lt;/a&gt; 3.5.9. While we have working tests for the PUT request (uploading files) for version 3.5.7, this request type did not work with my recent Konqueror installation. Some debugging and request dumping in &lt;a href=&quot;http://schlitt.info/applications/blog/exit.php?url_id=4629&amp;amp;entry_id=608&quot; title=&quot;http://www.lighttpd.net/&quot;  onmouseover=&quot;window.status=&#039;http://www.lighttpd.net/&#039;;return true;&quot; onmouseout=&quot;window.status=&#039;&#039;;return true;&quot; onclick=&quot;window.open(this.href, &#039;_blank&#039;); return false;&quot;&gt;Lighttpd&lt;/a&gt; later I was quite sure that Konqueror was the issue.&lt;/p&gt;
  44
  45 &lt;p&gt;I&#039;m neither a C(++) guy, nor do I use &lt;a href=&quot;http://schlitt.info/applications/blog/exit.php?url_id=4630&amp;amp;entry_id=608&quot; title=&quot;http://www.kde.org&quot;  onmouseover=&quot;window.status=&#039;http://www.kde.org&#039;;return true;&quot; onmouseout=&quot;window.status=&#039;&#039;;return true;&quot; onclick=&quot;window.open(this.href, &#039;_blank&#039;); return false;&quot;&gt;KDE&lt;/a&gt;. Therefore I joined #kde-devel on Freenode to see, if anyone there would be willing to support me in my bug tracking. After a rough description I instandly got feedback on the essential points I needed: Where in the code to look for the issue (it&#039;s kdelibs/kioslave/http), what the correct SVN revisions for the 3.5.7 and 3.5.9 tags are and how I can easily try if the issue resides in the supposed code area.&lt;/p&gt;
  46
  47 &lt;p&gt;Some kdelibs compile later I could verify that the issue came from the kioslave http module. While I could not really see the issue in the diff from 3.5.7 to 3.5.9 myself, again some people in the IRC channel instantly helped me and we found the problem together within minutes. A patch was created within minutes and I hope my &lt;a href=&quot;http://schlitt.info/applications/blog/exit.php?url_id=4631&amp;amp;entry_id=608&quot; title=&quot;http://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=166081&quot;  onmouseover=&quot;window.status=&#039;http://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=166081&#039;;return true;&quot; onmouseout=&quot;window.status=&#039;&#039;;return true;&quot; onclick=&quot;window.open(this.href, &#039;_blank&#039;); return false;&quot;&gt;bug report&lt;/a&gt; for Konqueror will be closed soonish.&lt;/p&gt;
  48
  49 &lt;p&gt;In this sense: &lt;b&gt;Thanks KDE people!&lt;/b&gt; That was really good support! :)&lt;/p&gt;

  75     <content:encoded>
  76     &lt;p&gt;I find the recent discussion about good naming schemes quite funny. Namespaces are potentially coming in PHP 5.3 (does anyone believe?) and people start discussion about how they can even shorten their names from &lt;i&gt;Abstract&lt;/i&gt; to &lt;i&gt;aSomething&lt;/i&gt; and from &lt;i&gt;Interface&lt;/i&gt; to &lt;i&gt;iAnotherthing&lt;/i&gt;. I&#039;m a fan of short names. As &lt;a href=&quot;http://schlitt.info/applications/blog/exit.php?url_id=4625&amp;amp;entry_id=607&quot; title=&quot;http://usrportage.de/archives/893-Over-abbreviated.html&quot;  onmouseover=&quot;window.status=&#039;http://usrportage.de/archives/893-Over-abbreviated.html&#039;;return true;&quot; onmouseout=&quot;window.status=&#039;&#039;;return true;&quot; onclick=&quot;window.open(this.href, &#039;_blank&#039;); return false;&quot;&gt;Lars pointed out&lt;/a&gt;:&lt;/p&gt;
  77
  78 &lt;blockquote&gt;&lt;p&gt;as short as possible, as verbose as needed&lt;/p&gt;
  79
  80 &lt;/blockquote&gt;
  81 &lt;p&gt;and&lt;/p&gt;
  82
  83 &lt;blockquote&gt;&lt;p&gt;you must understand the name without studying specific rules before&lt;/p&gt;
  84
  85 &lt;/blockquote&gt;
  86 &lt;p&gt;I agree with these rules and am of the opinion that class names must all above anything contain a &lt;b&gt;semantic&lt;/b&gt;. Interfaces indicate what you can do with an object, while abstract classes model that different classes have a common base and can be used in the same mannor. And indeed you can add these semantics to names without using the terms.&lt;/p&gt;
  87
  88 &lt;p&gt;Good examples are &lt;i&gt;Persistable&lt;/i&gt; which indicates that an object implementing this interface can be persisted, &lt;i&gt;Configurable&lt;/i&gt; or &lt;i&gt;Connectable&lt;/i&gt;. Abstract classes usually model a common base for other classes and define how these are being used &lt;i&gt;Reflector&lt;/i&gt; and &lt;i&gt;Configurator&lt;/i&gt; are good examples for such semantics. If this does not indicate their abstractness good enough to you, you can still indicate that this is a basis for other classes to be extended before being used: &lt;i&gt;BaseReflector&lt;/i&gt; or &lt;i&gt;BaseConfigurator&lt;/i&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;
  89
  90 &lt;p&gt;In fact for me, the abstractness of a class does not really matter that much. Most commonly you also provide descendants of this class and it is commonly clear that one should not use &lt;i&gt;DatabaseHandler&lt;/i&gt; but either of &lt;i&gt;OracleHandler&lt;/i&gt; or &lt;i&gt;MysqlHandler&lt;/i&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;
  91
  92 &lt;p&gt;Just my .02.&lt;/p&gt;

 115     &lt;p&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://schlitt.info/applications/blog/exit.php?url_id=4621&amp;amp;entry_id=606&quot; title=&quot;http://php.net/curl&quot;  onmouseover=&quot;window.status=&#039;http://php.net/curl&#039;;return true;&quot; onmouseout=&quot;window.status=&#039;&#039;;return true;&quot; onclick=&quot;window.open(this.href, &#039;_blank&#039;); return false;&quot;&gt;ext/curl&lt;/a&gt; is the common tool of choice, if one needs to perform more advanced HTTP requests from a PHP script (for simple ones, use a &lt;a href=&quot;http://schlitt.info/applications/blog/exit.php?url_id=4624&amp;amp;entry_id=606&quot; title=&quot;http://php.net/stream&quot;  onmouseover=&quot;window.status=&#039;http://php.net/stream&#039;;return true;&quot; onmouseout=&quot;window.status=&#039;&#039;;return true;&quot; onclick=&quot;window.open(this.href, &#039;_blank&#039;); return false;&quot;&gt;stream&lt;/a&gt;!). I recently wanted to perform a HEAD request to a file, after which I wanted to perform some more advanced HTTP interaction, so &lt;a href=&quot;http://schlitt.info/applications/blog/exit.php?url_id=4623&amp;amp;entry_id=606&quot; title=&quot;http://curl.haxx.se/&quot;  onmouseover=&quot;window.status=&#039;http://curl.haxx.se/&#039;;return true;&quot; onmouseout=&quot;window.status=&#039;&#039;;return true;&quot; onclick=&quot;window.open(this.href, &#039;_blank&#039;); return false;&quot;&gt;CURL&lt;/a&gt; was also the tool of choice here.&lt;/p&gt;
 116
 117 &lt;p&gt;Trying it out on the shell with a local web server, CURL was operating quite slow, in contrast to a GET request. The &lt;i&gt;-i&lt;/i&gt; command line switch makes curl include the headers in the printed output, &lt;i&gt;-X&lt;/i&gt; lets you define a custom HTTP request.&lt;/p&gt;
 118
 119

 150 sys    0m0.000s&lt;/code&gt;&lt;/pre&gt;
 151
 152 &lt;p&gt;A difference of 6 seconds runtime of a HEAD in contrast to 0.2 seconds for a GET is quite contrary to the original idea of a HEAD request. HEAD is used to just receive the headers of an URI instead of receiving the whole contents, to save bandwidth, memory and execution time.&lt;/p&gt;
 153
 154 &lt;p&gt;ext/curl showed the exact same problem. Fiddling a bit with the command line switches, I found to replace &lt;i&gt;-i&lt;/i&gt; with &lt;i&gt;-I&lt;/i&gt; which makes curl print only the headers, but not the body of the response.&lt;/p&gt;
 155
 156
 157 &lt;pre&gt;&lt;code&gt;dotxp@tango ~ $ time curl -I -X HEAD http://localhost/admin/
 158 HTTP/1.1 200 OK

 162
 163 Content-Type: text/html; charset=utf-8
 164 Date: Mon, 23 Jun 2008 09:19:05 GMT

 167 real    0m0.044s
 168 user    0m0.004s
 169 sys    0m0.000s&lt;/code&gt;&lt;/pre&gt;
 170
 171 &lt;p&gt;0.04 seconds is now even faster than the corresponding GET request, with the -I switch, which took me 0.09 seconds. Now I just needed to transfer the command line options to the corresponding ext/curl ones:&lt;/p&gt;
 172
 173
 174 &lt;pre&gt;&lt;code&gt;$c = curl_init();
 175 curl_setopt( $c, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, true );
 176 curl_setopt( $c, CURLOPT_CUSTOMREQUEST, &#039;HEAD&#039; );
 177 curl_setopt( $c, CURLOPT_HEADER, 1 );
 178 curl_setopt( $c, CURLOPT_NOBODY, true );
 179 curl_setopt( $c, CURLOPT_URL, &#039;http://localhost/admin/&#039; );
 180
 181 $res = curl_exec( $c ); &lt;/code&gt;&lt;/pre&gt;
 182
 183 &lt;p&gt;The &lt;i&gt;RETURNTRANSFER&lt;/i&gt; makes ext/curl return the HTTP response instead of printing it. Using the &lt;i&gt;CUSTOMREQUEST&lt;/i&gt; option you define to send a HEAD request instead of a standard GET or POST request. The &lt;i&gt;HEADER&lt;/i&gt; option makes ext/curl include the response headers in the return value of &lt;i&gt;curl_exec()&lt;/i&gt; call and NOBODY avoids the inclusion of the body content here. The &lt;i&gt;URL&lt;/i&gt; option as usually sets the URL to request and &lt;i&gt;curl_exec()&lt;/i&gt; makes ext/curl execute the request.&lt;/p&gt;
 184
 185 &lt;p&gt;The runtime was even a fraction of a second faster here, compared to the command line version, but that can be subjectively. However, the HEAD request works as expected now. Maybe it&#039;s useful for someone to know this.&lt;/p&gt;

 210     &lt;p&gt;One of the cool new features in the new &lt;a href=&quot;http://schlitt.info/applications/blog/exit.php?url_id=4612&amp;amp;entry_id=605&quot; title=&quot;http://ezcomponents.org/resources/news/news-2008-06-16&quot;  onmouseover=&quot;window.status=&#039;http://ezcomponents.org/resources/news/news-2008-06-16&#039;;return true;&quot; onmouseout=&quot;window.status=&#039;&#039;;return true;&quot; onclick=&quot;window.open(this.href, &#039;_blank&#039;); return false;&quot;&gt;2008.1&lt;/a&gt; release of the &lt;a href=&quot;http://schlitt.info/applications/blog/exit.php?url_id=4613&amp;amp;entry_id=605&quot; title=&quot;http://ezcomponents.org/&quot;  onmouseover=&quot;window.status=&#039;http://ezcomponents.org/&#039;;return true;&quot; onmouseout=&quot;window.status=&#039;&#039;;return true;&quot; onclick=&quot;window.open(this.href, &#039;_blank&#039;); return false;&quot;&gt;eZ Components&lt;/a&gt; library is hierarchical caching.&lt;/p&gt;
 211
 212 &lt;p&gt;Until now, we supported several types of cache storages. Some of these utilize the file system to store data, others can use APC or Memcache. While file based caches are usually large, since disk space is getting cheaper and cheaper, they are also much slower than memory based caches. RAM caches in contrast are blazingly fast, but memory is still much more limited than disk space. Therefore it is sensible, that the most important data for a website is stored in memory while less important stuff gets cached on the disk.&lt;/p&gt;
 213
 214 &lt;p&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: center;&quot;&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://schlitt.info/applications/blog/exit.php?url_id=4614&amp;amp;entry_id=605&quot; title=&quot;http://ezcomponents.org/docs/tutorials/Cache#hierarchical-caching&quot;  onmouseover=&quot;window.status=&#039;http://ezcomponents.org/docs/tutorials/Cache#hierarchical-caching&#039;;return true;&quot; onmouseout=&quot;window.status=&#039;&#039;;return true;&quot;&gt;&lt;img src=&quot;http://schlitt.info/ez/stack_complete.png&quot; border=&quot;0&quot; width=&quot;253&quot; height=&quot;255&quot; alt=&quot;stack_complete.png&quot; /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
 215
 216 &lt;p&gt;The new &lt;a href=&quot;http://schlitt.info/applications/blog/exit.php?url_id=4615&amp;amp;entry_id=605&quot; title=&quot;http://ezcomponents.org/docs/api/trunk/Cache/ezcCacheStack.html&quot;  onmouseover=&quot;window.status=&#039;http://ezcomponents.org/docs/api/trunk/Cache/ezcCacheStack.html&#039;;return true;&quot; onmouseout=&quot;window.status=&#039;&#039;;return true;&quot; onclick=&quot;window.open(this.href, &#039;_blank&#039;); return false;&quot;&gt;ezcCacheStack&lt;/a&gt; class in the eZ Cache component provides an automatic way of realizing this. You simply stack together an arbitrary number of storages. The stack will store every item into all of the stacked caches. You can configure how many items may reside in a storage. A replacement strategy class takes care about purging a certain number items in case a storage runs full. On restore, the stack will fetch the desired item from the topmost cache it is still stored in.&lt;/p&gt;
 217
 218 &lt;p&gt;Replacement strategies shipped with the eZ Cache component provide you with 2 well-known &lt;a href=&quot;http://schlitt.info/applications/blog/exit.php?url_id=4616&amp;amp;entry_id=605&quot; title=&quot;http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cache_algorithms&quot;  onmouseover=&quot;window.status=&#039;http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cache_algorithms&#039;;return true;&quot; onmouseout=&quot;window.status=&#039;&#039;;return true;&quot; onclick=&quot;window.open(this.href, &#039;_blank&#039;); return false;&quot;&gt;cache algorithms&lt;/a&gt;: Least Recently Used (LRU) and Least Frequently Used (LFU). The first one keeps track on when a cache item was last used and discards items that have not been used for the longest time, in case a storage runs full. LFU, in contrast to that, purges items that have been used least frequently. If none of these strategies fits your needs, you can always implement your own strategy, quite easily.&lt;/p&gt;
 219
 220 &lt;p&gt;Using the cache stack with an appropriate replacement strategy allows you to simply ignore which items are stored where and simply use the stack as your only cache storage.&lt;/p&gt;
 221
 222 &lt;p&gt;There are lots of other cool things in the 2008.1 package, which was released last Monday. We have 3 new components: &lt;a href=&quot;http://schlitt.info/applications/blog/exit.php?url_id=4617&amp;amp;entry_id=605&quot; title=&quot;http://ezcomponents.org/docs/api/trunk/classtrees_Document.html&quot;  onmouseover=&quot;window.status=&#039;http://ezcomponents.org/docs/api/trunk/classtrees_Document.html&#039;;return true;&quot; onmouseout=&quot;window.status=&#039;&#039;;return true;&quot; onclick=&quot;window.open(this.href, &#039;_blank&#039;); return false;&quot;&gt;Document&lt;/a&gt;, to parse and render different document formats, &lt;a href=&quot;http://schlitt.info/applications/blog/exit.php?url_id=4618&amp;amp;entry_id=605&quot; title=&quot;http://ezcomponents.org/docs/api/trunk/classtrees_Feed.html&quot;  onmouseover=&quot;window.status=&#039;http://ezcomponents.org/docs/api/trunk/classtrees_Feed.html&#039;;return true;&quot; onmouseout=&quot;window.status=&#039;&#039;;return true;&quot; onclick=&quot;window.open(this.href, &#039;_blank&#039;); return false;&quot;&gt;Feed&lt;/a&gt;, for creation and aggregation of XML feeds, and &lt;a href=&quot;http://schlitt.info/applications/blog/exit.php?url_id=4619&amp;amp;entry_id=605&quot; title=&quot;http://ezcomponents.org/docs/api/trunk/classtrees_Search.html&quot;  onmouseover=&quot;window.status=&#039;http://ezcomponents.org/docs/api/trunk/classtrees_Search.html&#039;;return true;&quot; onmouseout=&quot;window.status=&#039;&#039;;return true;&quot; onclick=&quot;window.open(this.href, &#039;_blank&#039;); return false;&quot;&gt;Search&lt;/a&gt;, which is a search engine abstraction layer, modelled after the PersistentObject component. Beside that, some other components got major new features. Feedback as usually highly appreciated. Enjoy!&lt;/p&gt;

 277     &lt;p&gt;Last night the Mozilla developers released &lt;a href=&quot;http://schlitt.info/applications/blog/exit.php?url_id=4589&amp;amp;entry_id=603&quot; title=&quot;http://www.spreadfirefox.com/en-US/worldrecord/&quot;  onmouseover=&quot;window.status=&#039;http://www.spreadfirefox.com/en-US/worldrecord/&#039;;return true;&quot; onmouseout=&quot;window.status=&#039;&#039;;return true;&quot; onclick=&quot;window.open(this.href, &#039;_blank&#039;); return false;&quot;&gt;Firefox 3.0&lt;/a&gt; to the wild. Congratulations for the new major version!&lt;/p&gt;
 278
 279 &lt;p&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: center;&quot;&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://schlitt.info/applications/blog/exit.php?url_id=4589&amp;amp;entry_id=603&quot; title=&quot;http://www.spreadfirefox.com/en-US/worldrecord/&quot;  onmouseover=&quot;window.status=&#039;http://www.spreadfirefox.com/en-US/worldrecord/&#039;;return true;&quot; onmouseout=&quot;window.status=&#039;&#039;;return true;&quot;&gt;&lt;img src=&quot;http://sfx-images.mozilla.org/affiliates/Buttons/firefox3/468x60.png&quot; border=&quot;0&quot; width=&quot;468&quot; height=&quot;60&quot; alt=&quot;468x60.png&quot; /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
 280
 281 &lt;p&gt;I&#039;ve been using the RCs since some weeks to see what the new version can. My impressions are a bit mixed. On the one hand, I love the new rendering, which seems much faster and smooth. The new bookmark management is quite cool and after some fiddling I also got my foreward/backward button back, which is 1 button instead of 2 now. Luckily, most of my favorid extensions already have adopted Firefox 3 and run smoothly. &lt;a href=&quot;http://schlitt.info/applications/blog/exit.php?url_id=4590&amp;amp;entry_id=603&quot; title=&quot;https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/60&quot;  onmouseover=&quot;window.status=&#039;https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/60&#039;;return true;&quot; onmouseout=&quot;window.status=&#039;&#039;;return true;&quot; onclick=&quot;window.open(this.href, &#039;_blank&#039;); return false;&quot;&gt;Web developer toolbar&lt;/a&gt;, &lt;a href=&quot;http://schlitt.info/applications/blog/exit.php?url_id=4591&amp;amp;entry_id=603&quot; title=&quot;https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/220&quot;  onmouseover=&quot;window.status=&#039;https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/220&#039;;return true;&quot; onmouseout=&quot;window.status=&#039;&#039;;return true;&quot; onclick=&quot;window.open(this.href, &#039;_blank&#039;); return false;&quot;&gt;Flashgot&lt;/a&gt;, &lt;a href=&quot;http://schlitt.info/applications/blog/exit.php?url_id=4592&amp;amp;entry_id=603&quot; title=&quot;https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/1865&quot;  onmouseover=&quot;window.status=&#039;https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/1865&#039;;return true;&quot; onmouseout=&quot;window.status=&#039;&#039;;return true;&quot; onclick=&quot;window.open(this.href, &#039;_blank&#039;); return false;&quot;&gt;Adblock plus&lt;/a&gt;, &lt;a href=&quot;http://schlitt.info/applications/blog/exit.php?url_id=4593&amp;amp;entry_id=603&quot; title=&quot;https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/433&quot;  onmouseover=&quot;window.status=&#039;https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/433&#039;;return true;&quot; onmouseout=&quot;window.status=&#039;&#039;;return true;&quot; onclick=&quot;window.open(this.href, &#039;_blank&#039;); return false;&quot;&gt;Flashblock&lt;/a&gt;, &lt;a href=&quot;http://schlitt.info/applications/blog/exit.php?url_id=4594&amp;amp;entry_id=603&quot; title=&quot;https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/189&quot;  onmouseover=&quot;window.status=&#039;https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/189&#039;;return true;&quot; onmouseout=&quot;window.status=&#039;&#039;;return true;&quot; onclick=&quot;window.open(this.href, &#039;_blank&#039;); return false;&quot;&gt;Google preview&lt;/a&gt;, &lt;a href=&quot;http://schlitt.info/applications/blog/exit.php?url_id=4595&amp;amp;entry_id=603&quot; title=&quot;https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/26&quot;  onmouseover=&quot;window.status=&#039;https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/26&#039;;return true;&quot; onmouseout=&quot;window.status=&#039;&#039;;return true;&quot; onclick=&quot;window.open(this.href, &#039;_blank&#039;); return false;&quot;&gt;Download Statusbar&lt;/a&gt;, &lt;a href=&quot;http://schlitt.info/applications/blog/exit.php?url_id=4596&amp;amp;entry_id=603&quot; title=&quot;https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/748&quot;  onmouseover=&quot;window.status=&#039;https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/748&#039;;return true;&quot; onmouseout=&quot;window.status=&#039;&#039;;return true;&quot; onclick=&quot;window.open(this.href, &#039;_blank&#039;); return false;&quot;&gt;Greasemonkey&lt;/a&gt; and the &lt;a href=&quot;http://schlitt.info/applications/blog/exit.php?url_id=4597&amp;amp;entry_id=603&quot; title=&quot;https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/138&quot;  onmouseover=&quot;window.status=&#039;https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/138&#039;;return true;&quot; onmouseout=&quot;window.status=&#039;&#039;;return true;&quot; onclick=&quot;window.open(this.href, &#039;_blank&#039;); return false;&quot;&gt;StumbleUpon&lt;/a&gt; work nicely. &lt;a href=&quot;http://schlitt.info/applications/blog/exit.php?url_id=4598&amp;amp;entry_id=603&quot; title=&quot;http://getfirebug.com/releases/allReleases.html&quot;  onmouseover=&quot;window.status=&#039;http://getfirebug.com/releases/allReleases.html&#039;;return true;&quot; onmouseout=&quot;window.status=&#039;&#039;;return true;&quot; onclick=&quot;window.open(this.href, &#039;_blank&#039;); return false;&quot;&gt;Firebug&lt;/a&gt; ist still in beta state for 3.0, but also works fine so far.&lt;/p&gt;
 282
 283 &lt;p&gt;However, there are still some, which did not see new releases for ages and therefore do not seem to be even near to a Firefox 3 version. I needed to switch from &lt;a href=&quot;http://schlitt.info/applications/blog/exit.php?url_id=4599&amp;amp;entry_id=603&quot; title=&quot;https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/12&quot;  onmouseover=&quot;window.status=&#039;https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/12&#039;;return true;&quot; onmouseout=&quot;window.status=&#039;&#039;;return true;&quot; onclick=&quot;window.open(this.href, &#039;_blank&#039;); return false;&quot;&gt;All-In-One-Gestures&lt;/a&gt; to &lt;a href=&quot;http://schlitt.info/applications/blog/exit.php?url_id=4600&amp;amp;entry_id=603&quot; title=&quot;https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/6366&quot;  onmouseover=&quot;window.status=&#039;https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/6366&#039;;return true;&quot; onmouseout=&quot;window.status=&#039;&#039;;return true;&quot; onclick=&quot;window.open(this.href, &#039;_blank&#039;); return false;&quot;&gt;Firegestures&lt;/a&gt;, which was fine, since I mostly use the &amp;quot;back&amp;quot; functionality which works the same in both. &lt;a href=&quot;http://schlitt.info/applications/blog/exit.php?url_id=4602&amp;amp;entry_id=603&quot; title=&quot;https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/1122&quot;  onmouseover=&quot;window.status=&#039;https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/1122&#039;;return true;&quot; onmouseout=&quot;window.status=&#039;&#039;;return true;&quot; onclick=&quot;window.open(this.href, &#039;_blank&#039;); return false;&quot;&gt;Tab Mix Plus&lt;/a&gt; does not work at all, but is essential for me. Started from the undo close tab history, which gives you a list of recently closed tabs instead of just restoring the last, over the duplicate tab function to the central close button, I&#039;m missing a good part of my used Firefox functionality.&lt;/p&gt;
 284
 285 &lt;p&gt;I&#039;m a bit sad, that I neither have the time nor the possibility to dig deeper into XUL stuff to fix the issues myself, which would be the open source way to do it. However, I still hope that someone else out there will have or that other people will come up with a different extension which brings the same nice features. So long, I can live quite good with Firefox 3 for now. It still hangs in certain conditions on my system, but that should be fixed in one of the next bug fix releases. I know very well, that X.0 versions are never absolutly stable. Amazing, how stable Firefox 3 already is!&lt;/p&gt;
 286
 287 &lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;In that sense, great work, Firefox hackers!&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
 288
 289 &lt;p&gt;Everyone out there should download and try out Firefox 3.0 today, to help with building the desired &lt;a href=&quot;http://schlitt.info/applications/blog/exit.php?url_id=4589&amp;amp;entry_id=603&quot; title=&quot;http://www.spreadfirefox.com/en-US/worldrecord/&quot;  onmouseover=&quot;window.status=&#039;http://www.spreadfirefox.com/en-US/worldrecord/&#039;;return true;&quot; onmouseout=&quot;window.status=&#039;&#039;;return true;&quot; onclick=&quot;window.open(this.href, &#039;_blank&#039;); return false;&quot;&gt;world record&lt;/a&gt;. There have already been more than 250,000 downloads from Germany, as I write this article. So, let&#039;s see where this leads. :)&lt;/p&gt;
 290
 291 &lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;Update&lt;/b&gt; (2008-06-18, 19:08): The &lt;a href=&quot;http://schlitt.info/applications/blog/exit.php?url_id=4601&amp;amp;entry_id=603&quot; title=&quot;https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/321&quot;  onmouseover=&quot;window.status=&#039;https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/321&#039;;return true;&quot; onmouseout=&quot;window.status=&#039;&#039;;return true;&quot; onclick=&quot;window.open(this.href, &#039;_blank&#039;); return false;&quot;&gt;Search Status&lt;/a&gt; extension works, seems I had disactivated it for some reason.&lt;/p&gt;
 292
 293 &lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;Update&lt;/b&gt; (2008-06-23, 10:36): Thanks to a comment here, I got aware of a recent &lt;a href=&quot;http://schlitt.info/applications/blog/exit.php?url_id=4620&amp;amp;entry_id=603&quot; title=&quot;http://tmp.garyr.net/tab_mix_plus-dev-build.xpi&quot;  onmouseover=&quot;window.status=&#039;http://tmp.garyr.net/tab_mix_plus-dev-build.xpi&#039;;return true;&quot; onmouseout=&quot;window.status=&#039;&#039;;return true;&quot; onclick=&quot;window.open(this.href, &#039;_blank&#039;); return false;&quot;&gt;dev build&lt;/a&gt; of Tab Mix Plus. Luckily it seems to work quite fine, so my FF3 is near to be complete now. :)&lt;/p&gt;

 319     &lt;p&gt;A little bit belated, but as promised during the session, I just uploaded my slides from the talk &lt;a href=&quot;http://schlitt.info/applications/blog/exit.php?url_id=4561&amp;amp;entry_id=602&quot; title=&quot;http://schlitt.info/misc/ipc2k6s_6_essential_php_tools_tobias_schlitt.zip&quot;  onmouseover=&quot;window.status=&#039;http://schlitt.info/misc/ipc2k6s_6_essential_php_tools_tobias_schlitt.zip&#039;;return true;&quot; onmouseout=&quot;window.status=&#039;&#039;;return true;&quot; onclick=&quot;window.open(this.href, &#039;_blank&#039;); return false;&quot;&gt;6 essential PHP development tools in 60 minutes&lt;/a&gt;. Since there is so much to say I actually managed to get 4,5 tools through and for all of these it felt to be too few time. I think I should provide a workshop for the next conference&lt;/p&gt;
 320
 321 &lt;p&gt;Hope to see you there! &#039;till next time.&lt;/p&gt;

 439     &lt;p&gt;After some heavy discussions with &lt;a href=&quot;http://schlitt.info/applications/blog/exit.php?url_id=4550&amp;amp;entry_id=598&quot; title=&quot;http://kore-nordmann.de&quot;  onmouseover=&quot;window.status=&#039;http://kore-nordmann.de&#039;;return true;&quot; onmouseout=&quot;window.status=&#039;&#039;;return true;&quot; onclick=&quot;window.open(this.href, &#039;_blank&#039;); return false;&quot;&gt;Kore&lt;/a&gt; and others I researched about German law in respect to individual rights on photos yesterday. Thanks to &lt;a href=&quot;http://schlitt.info/applications/blog/exit.php?url_id=4551&amp;amp;entry_id=598&quot; title=&quot;http://arne-nordmann.de&quot;  onmouseover=&quot;window.status=&#039;http://arne-nordmann.de&#039;;return true;&quot; onmouseout=&quot;window.status=&#039;&#039;;return true;&quot; onclick=&quot;window.open(this.href, &#039;_blank&#039;); return false;&quot;&gt;Arne&lt;/a&gt;, who gave me a good &lt;a href=&quot;http://schlitt.info/applications/blog/exit.php?url_id=4552&amp;amp;entry_id=598&quot; title=&quot;http://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Recht_am_eigenen_Bild&quot;  onmouseover=&quot;window.status=&#039;http://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Recht_am_eigenen_Bild&#039;;return true;&quot; onmouseout=&quot;window.status=&#039;&#039;;return true;&quot; onclick=&quot;window.open(this.href, &#039;_blank&#039;); return false;&quot;&gt;starting point&lt;/a&gt; (German) for my research. In the end, Kore was mostly right with his interpretation, what made me remove about 1100 photos from my &lt;a href=&quot;http://schlitt.info/applications/blog/exit.php?url_id=4553&amp;amp;entry_id=598&quot; title=&quot;http://www.flickr.com/photos/tobiasschlitt/&quot;  onmouseover=&quot;window.status=&#039;http://www.flickr.com/photos/tobiasschlitt/&#039;;return true;&quot; onmouseout=&quot;window.status=&#039;&#039;;return true;&quot; onclick=&quot;window.open(this.href, &#039;_blank&#039;); return false;&quot;&gt;Flickr gallery&lt;/a&gt;. All of those showing people dedicatedly where I do not feel to have the explicit permission to publish their pictures. I&#039;ll try to explain the reasons, my personal issues and possibly solutions in this article.&lt;/p&gt;

 493     &lt;p&gt;I like &lt;a href=&quot;http://schlitt.info/applications/blog/exit.php?url_id=4545&amp;amp;entry_id=596&quot; title=&quot;http://xing.com&quot;  onmouseover=&quot;window.status=&#039;http://xing.com&#039;;return true;&quot; onmouseout=&quot;window.status=&#039;&#039;;return true;&quot; onclick=&quot;window.open(this.href, &#039;_blank&#039;); return false;&quot;&gt;Xing&lt;/a&gt;. I actually like some of the social networks, although I think there are far to many of them. However, Xing is useful to me for keeping my address book updated by my business contacts themselves and to be up2date about who is doing what. Nice! I&#039;m also a &amp;quot;premium&amp;quot; (in the sense of paying) user in Xing. On the one hand because that gives me some nice additional features and safes me from advertisement. On the other one because I think paying for a good online service is a good idea.&lt;/p&gt;
 494
 495 &lt;p&gt;What I really wonder is: What happens to the feature requests and support questions I address to Xing? I don&#039;t really have the impression anyone takes care in anyway. Therefore I&#039;d like to tell you the story of 2 tiny feature requests I addressed to Xing some months ago and several times since then. I think, I did not request features that are too difficult to realize. Now, I don&#039;t have any clue about web applications, so I might be wrong in this impression. ;) I&#039;m also quite sure that many more people out there would love to see the same stuff realized, so it&#039;s not even that they consider my questions too useless for a qualified response.&lt;/p&gt;
 496
 497 &lt;p&gt;However, whenever I send them a message via their contact form, I receive an autogenerated message ala &amp;quot;Thanks for your request, we take our users requests serious&amp;quot; a few hours later. Good to hear, that their system at least received my message. Another one, probably also auto-generated, that says &amp;quot;We forwarded your message to the development department.&amp;quot; flies to my inbox usually a few days or weeks. Good to see, you take care over there at Xing! Although this is the final message I received about every such request.&lt;/p&gt;
 498
 499 &lt;p&gt;No, to stay seriously and keep sarcasm away, is anyone taking  care? I can&#039;t believe. I requested one and the same feature 3 times now and another one 2 times already. Without any response that seemed to be written  by anything else than a computer. I&#039;m not even sure that any human being ever read my mails. Maybe they have some fancy text recognition tool that generates standard replies automatically? Is it so hard to send a reply like &amp;quot;Sorry, we are not able to realize this, because...&amp;quot; or &amp;quot;Sorry, we don&#039;t think that feature Foo Bar is useful to our users, because...&amp;quot;? Is it so hard to give a use the feeling that anyone really takes care? Possibly I just asked the wrong question. If it is that way, please let me know.&lt;/p&gt;
 500
 501 &lt;p&gt;To let you finally know what I want: Xing offers an RSS feeds for a lot of stuff. From the latest visitors of my profile to any &lt;del&gt;pointless&lt;/del&gt;&lt;ins&gt;important&lt;/ins&gt; status messages, I can see everything right away in my feed reader. Why the hell not the next birthdays of my contacts? Why can I see &amp;quot;Foo Bar likes Xing status messages&amp;quot; in my &lt;a href=&quot;http://schlitt.info/applications/blog/exit.php?url_id=4546&amp;amp;entry_id=596&quot; title=&quot;http://torii.org&quot;  onmouseover=&quot;window.status=&#039;http://torii.org&#039;;return true;&quot; onmouseout=&quot;window.status=&#039;&#039;;return true;&quot; onclick=&quot;window.open(this.href, &#039;_blank&#039;); return false;&quot;&gt;Torii&lt;/a&gt;, but not who has his birthday today? The second &lt;del&gt;tiny&lt;/del&gt;&lt;ins&gt;huge&lt;/ins&gt; feature I requested could even be more difficult to realize: Xing let&#039;s you link additional information about you from your profile. Beside your website you can share links to other social networks there, like Flickr or LastFM and a whole load of others I did not even hear of. Why is &lt;a href=&quot;http://schlitt.info/applications/blog/exit.php?url_id=4547&amp;amp;entry_id=596&quot; title=&quot;http://ohloh.com&quot;  onmouseover=&quot;window.status=&#039;http://ohloh.com&#039;;return true;&quot; onmouseout=&quot;window.status=&#039;&#039;;return true;&quot; onclick=&quot;window.open(this.href, &#039;_blank&#039;); return false;&quot;&gt;Ohloh&lt;/a&gt; still missing? Guys, I&#039;m paying for your stuff, did you realize?&lt;/p&gt;
 502
 503 &lt;p&gt;Would be interessting to know if anyone ever had success with a feature request at Xing, or if they just implement what the think is useful for their users?&lt;/p&gt;

 528     <content:encoded>
 529     &lt;p&gt;I&#039;ve been to the Dortmund post office quite often lately, mostly because I&#039;m never at home when the postman wants to deliver my packages. The largest German post service provider &amp;quot;Deutsche Post AG&amp;quot; also owns a bank, the &amp;quot;Postbank&amp;quot;. While they did not bother me with any of that stuff earlier, their advertisement for non-postal and postal products starts getting more and more annoying. But let me start at the beginning...&lt;/p&gt;
 530
 531 &lt;p&gt;While queuing inside the office to get to a counter, you need to stand between shelves that contain other stuff they sell at the post office: Stationery, cellphones, home phones and much more. Since you usually queue between 10 and 30 minutes you get enough time to read all those nice advertisement slogans. Right before you get to a counter, there is a large LCD screen that constantly shows a mixture of recent news and more and more advertisement: Banking stuff, cellphones, postal services and so on. When you finally make it to the counter, the staffer is usually unfriendly and not the fastest one. However, we are used to this for ages now and it&#039;s not the point of this article. When you are finally done hand happy to hold the latest DVD from Amazon in your hands, the staffer suddenly gets friendly: &amp;quot;Do you already have an account at Postbank?&amp;quot;. A friendly &amp;quot;No thanks&amp;quot; does not work: &amp;quot;A just wanted to make sure you noticed...&amp;quot;. &amp;quot;No, thank you!&amp;quot;. &amp;quot;But it&#039;s about your future! Do you know you can save...&amp;quot;. &amp;quot;I am sorry, but I already have a bank account and I do not want to change!&amp;quot;.&lt;/p&gt;
 532
 533 &lt;p&gt;After I had this situation for the 3rd time within a week now, I tend to simply lie to those people: I now tell them I&#039;d still work for my old employer which also was a bank. This seems to work perfectly fine and they even reply with &amp;quot;Oh, sorry for disturbing you&amp;quot; and let you go. However, I wonder if there isn&#039;t any legal remedy I have against such spam? It is illegal to send me emails about drugs I&#039;m not interessted in, but to spam me personally about banking services I don&#039;t want?&lt;/p&gt;
