CrashPlan, it's a remote backup solution for (almost) everyone. The principle is easy enough: install the software client (available for Windows, Mac OS X or Linux), change the default selection of files that will be backed up (if you want to) and you're on your way to never loose a file again!

Installer Windows XP sur un Mac, que ça soit dans Parallels Desktop, WMWare Fusion ou avec Bootcamp, c'est parfois bien pratique. Ce qui n'est pas pratique par contre, c'est d'essayer d'utiliser un clavier Mac canadien français dans Windows! La solution: installer un layout de clavier 'Mac' dans Windows XP, disponible ici.

A nice little widget, sitting on my Dashboard, that can tell me how much of my monthly quota I've used so far.

Encouraged by the fast growth of the Facebook social-networking site, I wanted to be able to easily transfer pictures from my Gallery into Facebook photo albums so that my Facebook friends could see my little guy[...] The result is now a nice Facebook application which seems to work just fine for most people who tried it: Gallery Import application on Facebook

[...]Apart from scripting, I also took time to answer many support questions in the forums[...] I also got paid by iniCom (the company that now owns ioFTPD rights) for various work; mainly web-related developments.[...]

It has come to my attention (from the RealmacSoftware support forums) that the PHP code generated by RapidWeaver (version 3.2.1 or less) is vulnerable to mail header injection attacks[...]

I publish and maintain a calendar of all the Canadian Holidays.
I started it in iCal.app (on my Mac) and I was publishing it using WebDAV on my web server, but I now imported it in Google Calendar, where I maintain and share it.

Not that easy...
Here's a step by step guide to do it yourself.

[...]The only problem I had left with the EyeTV software was the EPG (Electronic Program Guide); there is no EPG support for canadian users!
This was a fact of life I lived with ever since I bought the EvolutionTV hardware, until I gave up waiting for Elgato to release an EPG for Canada.Taking the matter into my own hands, I created a TitanTV (US-only EPG) account, configured EyeTV to download TitanTV data, and sniffed the HTTP packets exchanged between my computer and TitanTV's server[...]

Ok. So I wanted to install FrontRow 1.3 on my old PowerMac G5... Downloaded FrontRow Enabler 1.3, followed instructions, rebooted... And bam, no more login screen. How fun. Checking the comments on Andrew Escobar's page, I realized 10.4.8 wasn't supported just yet. So I used my trusty Firewire cable to fix my PowerMac (see how in the comments of Andrew's page), and started to look for a way to patch FrontRow Enabler 1.3 to make it compatible with Mac OS X 10.4.8[...]

mIRC and eggdrop support Blowfish pretty easily, but there was nothing for Colloquy (the IRC client I use - Mac OS X only) to encrypt & decrypt Blowfish encrypted messages. So I started looking for a way to encrypt & decrypt Blowfish messages by developing my own Colloquy plugin[...]

I was pretty happy with Google Reader itself, since I could read news at home, or at work (and soon enough, between the two) and not have to deal with duplicates etc. After looking for a while for a Google Reader API, or some other ways to download unread RSS items from Google Reader into my Palm, I gave up. I then started to implement my own Google Reader: GobbleRSS.

After some digging on Google, I found one post on MacOSXHints forums where a user mentioned that a FA attached to a folder on an external HDD would always stop working after un-mounting / re-mounting the hard disk; exactly what was happening to me!

So bottom line, if you want to try those new things, make sure you buy them at a retailer that will take them back if you're not satisfied.
And if you want good technical support, don't deal with Netgear!
