In order to answer a plea for help from a commandline phobe for an easy to use subversion client for OS X I went searching for a TortoiseSVN equivalent. Tortoise is the subversion client for Windows so I hoped that someone would have developed something similar to integrate with Finder. After a little bit of searching I found scplugin and recommended it. I finally got a chance to try it out myself this evening and so far it looks really good.

rsi prevention
Can anyone recommend a good rsi prevention program for OS X? I am used to using WorkRave on windows at $dayjob and this works very well. Looking around it seemed to be WristSaver that was recommened for OS X but it is nowhere near as fully functioned as WorkRave. Or am I just going to have to look into porting WorkRave to OS X?
Pwnie’s 2008
WordPress seems to have had the dubious pleasure of been nominated for the 2008 Pwnie Awards in the “Mass 0wnage” category:
It seems like hardly a week goes by without a new vulnerability in WordPress or one of its many plugins. Many of them are actively being exploited to own popular WordPress blogs and use them to serve spam or client-side exploits to unsuspecting visitors. The popularity of WordPress combined with the abysmal security practices of WordPress plugin developers places the entire Internet at risk and is worthy of a nomination.
To be fair many of the vulnerabities that are reported are within plugin code rather than the core. For more information on the CVEs reported for WordPress and WordPress plugins this year you can head over to the codex.
twitter on a nokia e65
Seeing as twitter seems to have stopped accepting my sms tweets without a PIN even though one isn’t set up I went in search of a simple twitter client for my phone. The first one I found was twibble which so far is working very well and supports both tweeting via 3G/GPRS/WIFI on the phone as well as sending them via sms if you want. Twibble also has support for using twitpic to tweet pictures.
