Google has a LOT of IP addresses. You can query ARIN.net’s WHOIS database if you don’t believe me. Fixed Orbit says Google has control of approximately 32,763 IP addresses. But that’s very incorrect, it seems to me. It looks like they have at least 40 seperate allocations, some of which are 8192 IP addresses alone! [...]
At the risk of being a Guy Kawasaki fanboi, I’m posting about him again. Chris Salazar of California just posted the guts of a Guy Kawasaki presentation he attended – the Ten Steps of Entrepreneuralism. There’s some really good material in there. I won’t bother reproducing here, just click the link dude.

Code names…how stupid! Or so I used to think. Naming servers fun names like Greek gods (ergh, ok that’s not really fun it’s just tired) or food (spaghetti, noodle, wasabi) seemed like good fun but not that useful. I didn’t really understand what project codenames (like Whistler, Yukon and Whidbey for Microsoft software releases) were [...]
Can’t upload large files in IIS6, and just getting “Operation not Allowed” errors? Whatcha gotta do is edit the metabase. You have to change AspMaxRequestEntityAllowed in the metabase.xml file to whatever file size in bytes that you want to allow. Go forth and upload! After further fun and games with another Windows 2003 Server that’s [...]
Well, only just after that post it looks like I’ll have to challenge Daniel to use the new Whereis interface and tell me it’s not better, because it’s a LOT better thanks to some AJAX kinda stuff (and of course the new graphics that bring it well into 2002 ). Clicking to re-centre the map [...]
Daniel tonight told me that he hadn’t yet seen a good implementation of an ajax application, that they’re always too slow and the delay bugs him. I really don’t know what he’s talking about so maybe I should have clarified, although I think it’s possible that he’s used ajax on sites that aren’t so obvious [...]
Another eminent heavy-hitter in the tech world is Richard Fuser, a mate of mine from the big smoke, Sydney. He’s an opinionated character and he’s started out with a pretty funny first real post about a lady driving around with her iPod blasting into her ears. Richie I hope you keep posting now that I’ve [...]
Something tonight pointed me to Guy Kawasaki’s reasonably new blog titled “Let the Good Times Roll”, I think it was Om Malik. Om mentioned how people have wondered why Guy hasn’t started a blog before, and I wonder the same ’cause his blog is excellent reading. Who is he? Well, just an ex-Stanford and UCLA [...]
