Very, very cool. I’m not sure which is better, the music or the game. http://www.flashplayer.com/games/aggressivealpineskiing.html

Dead simple this one, but not initially obvious. How do you use mysqldump to generate a CSV file of data? mysqldump –u [username] –fields-terminated-by=, –tab=[DIR TO SAVE TO] –tables [DB NAME] [TABLENAME] > [TABLENAME].txt This’ll place into the specified directory two files: one a SQL file containing the table definition and the data as a [...]

Contrary to previous plans, Microsoft will release IE7 as a beta in “early summer” 2005. Longhorn, the next iteration of Windows, isdue late next year. http://www.theregister.co.uk/2005/02/15/gates_rsa_2005/ It’ll have to make the tea and my sandwiches before [...]

WebSideStory will combine Atomz’s hosted site search and web content management applications with WebSideStory’s HBX web analytics service to create the industry’s first suite of integrated, on-demand digital marketing applications. http://biz.yahoo.com/prnews/050208/latu129_1.html I suggest that this will not be the last merger/acquisition in this space over the coming months.
