Setting PHP INI Settings with .htaccess

Cool Shit, Joomla, Web Development, PHP June 13th, 2008

Sometimes you just don’t have access to the PHP INI and now what?

It’s pretty simple, just use the .htaccess file to set the PHP.INI setting that you need.

For instance setting down Register Globals you would use:

php_flag register_globals off

Google Friend Connect

Cool Shit, Great Ideas, Google, Facebook, Web Development May 13th, 2008

This May, Google released the Google Friend Connect.

This must be one of the most boldest and simpler concepts of social networking I have seen so far and, even without being able to actually see how it is going to work, this are my first impressions about the new tool.

  • It’s simple enough that a simple user can do it. If you are capable to use Google Anaylitics, you will definitely be able to use this.
  • No matter what you have selected to use as a gadget on your site, the user gadget is the main one and has to be added to the site always. This gadget will actually connect all users of your site and if the user is already a Google account th registration process becomes simpler. You can add friends from Facebook, Orkut, GTalk and, soon, HI5.
  • Reports will be provided to see how your site is growing as a social network site

The main goal of all of this will be transforming a simple blog into a strong social network site based on other big known social networks.

So far everything looks a little bit too unclear, since nobody had access to the tool, but imagine how viral a simple blog can be with this.

Let’s wait for Google new tool to be release and right now if you want to take a first look at it, you will have to register: http://www.google.com/friendconnect/

Meanwhile here is a cool site that is already using the Google Friend Connect: http://www.ingridmichaelson.com/
