As a celebration for their 5th anniversary, DivX is giving away their “DivX Create Bundle” that allows you to make DivX videos. Normally the software is $19.99, but for the moment, it’s free. Hurry though, it’s ending soon (their “one day” promotion is currently in it’s 2nd or 3rd day).
[edit] The promotion has ended.

Anyone else think this whole ordeal is one big joke? I mean, what next, saying the world is flat? I cannot believe the ignorance of some people.
What do you think about this court case?

LMAO, how funny is this?
WARSAW (Reuters) – An 18-month-old child started the family car and ran over three family members in a southern Polish village on Saturday, police said.
“The child somehow started the car, whose keys had been left in the ignition, and it began reversing,” police spokesman Adam Jachimczak said.
The child’s mother, who tried to stop the car, and her four-year-old daughter, got run over by the vehicle which pinned the grandfather against the wall of a barn.
The four-year-old, who suffered the most serious injuries, was rushed to hospital together with her mother and grandfather who were also hurt, Jachimczak said.

As I mentioned earlier, you can connect to Google’s IM service, Google Talk, via 3rd party applications such as Trillian (as described here).
Anyway, Trillian has been having issues though with it, always spitting out errors like “Connection lost to server” and such. However, one of the Trillian developers has released a beta of new version of the Jabber plugin. It fixes all issues related to Google Talk, or at least it did for me. If you’re using Trillian Pro and want to connect to the Google Talk service, download this ZIP file and extract it to your Trillian directory. It should hopefully fix any issues you’re having.

Firefox v1.0.7 was released on Tuesday if you didn’t notice. It’s a security fix and so therefore it’s strongly advised that you update.

I’ve written yet another widget (a mini-plugin) for WordPress dashboard replacement WP-Dash. This one displays all comments that are currently awaiting moderation. It even allows you to approve, delete, or mark them as spam right from your dashboard. For more details, check out the plugin’s page.

I just had one of these for the first time a few weeks back and oh man are they good! The “Hard Berry” (blackberry) ones are especially tasty.
If you haven’t had one before and they’re available in your area, I definetly say you should go out and buy a 6-pack. They’re about as expensive as beer and about the same amount of alcohol (5.2% by volume).

Haha, yes, yet another version already. v1.11 was a single/double-quote bug fix and this version is to fix a stupid mistake I made by having the script save some data to the $_POST array instead of just saving the edited POST string to my own variable.
Please download the new version (v1.12) and I’ll try to hold off releasing yet another version… or at least for a least a few days.

Yes, a new version already. swordfish posted a request on the WordPress support forums asking for the ability to set set custom plugin descriptions, so I added that. There’s also some minor bug fixes that were made.

I’ve written yet another plugin, “Viper’s Plugins Used“. This one lists out all plugins that you currently have enabled on your blog in either a table or an unordered list. It’s highly configurable as well. To see it in action, click here.
