I should just stay with the standard wordpress comment system. But I like the ability to integrate with facebook and twitter. So I moved from Js-Kit to Disqus (which I’m running on my other site) I’ve been happy with disqus and it seems more user friendly than js-kit for the commentors.

Once Comment-luv supports Disqus I’ll add that again.

If you wouldn’t mind leaving a few comments and testing the facebook and twitter features I’d appreciate it.

Working on a Commvault post I should have up in a few days.

JS-Kit comments

Category : site news

I decided to try JS-Kit for my comments here. They have Google,facebook, and twitter integration. I can also keep using commentluv (I’m still working on getting that to work).
Tonight I’ll also be adding tweetmeme to make it easier to retweet the post.
Please give the new comment system a try and let me know what you think.

Screen Sharing

Image via Wikipedia

I was reading 6 free remote desktop sharing and screen sharing solutions from Online Tech Tips looking a free new install remote desktop sharing to help support friends and family. I checked on all 6 of the solutions OTT listed and a few from the comments. A few of them claimed to have no install, but when you started digging deeper there was an install, there a ‘plug-in’ or activeX component. These are installs!!! Anything that is added to a system that requires admin access is an install.

I’m talking to you SkyFex and dimdim. TeamViewer does only require the ‘expert’ to have software installed and they do have a portable app that doesn’t require an install its a stand alone exe. But it is only available in the paid version :-(

Adding Disk to Cluster on Windows 2008

Category : Post from around the Net, microsoft, technology

The Cluster Guys have a nice post about a few ways to add a disk to a windows 2008 cluster. I would like to see a similar post for windows 2003 clusters. They don’t seem to allow comments so I’m creating my own post and sending them a pingback :-)

Windows Cluster 2008 provides multiple ways of adding a disk to an existing cluster. This article will walk you through all the available choices.

A few site updates

Category : WordPress, site news

I added a few new widgets and cleaned up some other objects on my sidebars. What do you think of the new theme?

I’ve also added a list of the plug-ins I’m using on this site.

I also added the subscribe to comments plug-in so you can now have updates emailed to you when you leave a comment.

Moderate Via Delay

Category : MovableType

The plugin has a junk filter that can moderate comments and trackbacks that are submitted a certain amount of time after the original entry was posted, or after the last comment/trackback was posted. You can also flag such comments as junk instead of moderating them, and even scale the junk rating so that it increases the longer the entry has been idle.

Pacers’ Jackson calls ban on chains ‘racist’

Category : Rants

I’ve been listening to some of the reports and players comments on the new dress code in the NBA and I have to laugh. Your job is playing basketball. At anyone’s jobs there are certain ways to act, perform, dress, etc. These can change at any time, your working for someone. If my boss comes to me today and tells me tomorrow I have to wear a shirt and tie. I either have to go by some ties or find another job. As for the NBA’s new dress code, the players union voted yes on this change!!!

I just laugh to hear a player that is paid millions of dollars to play a game, using the race card. Sorry buddy NO SOUP FOR YOU!!! The NBA is looking to improve their image they want to have a more professional look, the ‘thug’ look will never be a professional look.

by Marc Stein

INDIANAPOLIS — Indiana Pacers guard Stephen Jackson, contending that a new ban on chains worn over clothing is “a racist statement” from the league, wore every long, diamond-studded chain in his collection Tuesday night as a protest.

Jackson voiced…
