Cakephp
Saturday, November 1st, 2008Begin this week I began to experiment with cakephp but there’s a downside, Cake is something like rails but unfortunately the framework has less good tutorials.
It seems that…
Thursday, October 16th, 2008I’ve got a bit a writers block, I don’t find good things to write about these days. But i’m thinking of posting the codes I write with in class with the excercice data so that anyone that want can replicate it without the code.
NSF and the Birth of the Internet
Friday, August 22nd, 2008The history of the internet, nicely done, now you don’t have to read the wikipedia entry. And it’s enjoyable to browse the site

Restful_authentication
Wednesday, August 20th, 2008This is probably one of the easiest authantication plugins for rails. I’m learning it at the moment and it isn’t easy, the biggest obstacle is the tutorials that often are but available for rails 1.x.x.
Inserting adsense in phpbb3 templates
Friday, August 15th, 2008I have to review some things from my last post about phpbb3 adsense. Infact it doesn’t matter where you put it just don’t do it in the if statements of the templates because you won’t be able to see it always.
Adsense and forums
Friday, August 15th, 2008Where do you put AdSense when you manage a forum? It’s the question I’m thinking about for some days now. I’m trying different approaches every once in a while until I’m satisfied.
Just before you we get started, note that forums.webscriptz.be isn’t getting a lot of visitors, this is basically because I have to deal with big competitors in the same niche of the web. Also because I’m not promoting the place because, well I’m short of time and I don’t want to spend money on something that I can earn myself by doing the work AdSense does.
I’ve got my little theories on where to put AdSense on my blog, I don’t have the very best of designs for phpbb3 but I’m thinking positive.
Images and SEO
Wednesday, August 13th, 2008Pictures are useless content on a web page and o one of the most commonly know seo tips for images is that you have to use the <img scr="" alt="your keywords here but not more then 160 characters">
Why?
Easy, crawlers read – scan text and don’t have eyes so they cannot see the image and threat it are some sort of whitespace unless you use your alt tag and also if the image isn’t available at the time a regular user still knows what what the image is about.
Also everything that we may do can be exploited for bad use and so ver the years techniques have been refined to abuse this fact and webmasters have ’stuffed’ their ‘alt tags’ with everything they could think of – Google has, however, found ways to combat this and treats such strategies as spamming their bots – Sill it’s legal but be careful don’t go of spamming, one or two well placed words are more then enough.
