Formspring is a social networking site that allows its users to send and receive anonymous questions. Lately there’s been a rumor circulating the internet about an April Fools joke by the CEO of Formspring. Apparently, he thought it would be funny to unveil the anonymous question-askers. People have been asking questions anonymously for months now, and this ‘joke’ would make it so that there was no anonymity on the site. This is a hoax.

15 Websites like FMyLife
January 20th, 2010 by bundyxc 18 comments »I’ve wasted too many hours on FMyLife, as I’m sure you have too. So let’s find some more sites to waste time on!
MyLifeIsAverage
The same idea as FMyLife, with a different theme. Instead of posting about miserable experiences, people post about how they’re normal.. sort of. The site started out by making jabs at FMyLife, making numerous references to their predecessor, but has since developed their own niche that they manage very well.
Today I installed a program and it asked if I had read and agreed to the terms and conditions. I hadn’t, but I clicked ‘yes’ anyway. The program didn’t know I lied, and began to install. MLIA.

AT&T Takes Advantage of Customers When Comparing Internet Plans
December 24th, 2009 by bundyxc 14 comments »Yet another reason not to like AT&T. While us geeks caught on very quickly, other people fell victim to AT&T’s “Plan Comparison”. For those who don’t understand internet speeds, this chart seemed to be a helpful diagram to allow them to see which plan they needed… or so they thought. AT&T decided to put outrageous things on the diagram, making it looked like you needed 12 Mb/s (megabits per second) just to stream videos from YouTube. What a joke!

PHP Random String Function genRandStr()
December 19th, 2009 by bundyxc 1 comment »genRandStr() creates a random string, with parameters to control length, type of characters, and also the ability to create an array of these randomized strings with the established properties (as opposed to running the function multiple times, which would require program to loop through the logic portion of the function again and again). Strings can be numeric, alphanumeric uppercase, alphanumeric lowercase, alpha lowercase, and alpha uppercase.
This random string function can be found at php.net, submitted as a “User Contributed Note” which can be found here.

December 13th, 2009 by bundyxc No comments »It’s five ‘o clock in the morning, and my brain is hard at work, brainstorming potential projects. For the past few hours I’ve been thinking of new projects that I’d like to take on. I’ll be compiling a short list of what I’ve brainstormed so far, just to document my ideas, and add some more content to the site.

Media Temple index.php Injection Analysis
November 29th, 2009 by bundyxc 5 comments »As we talked about last time, Media Temple’s servers got cracked, and many people’s passwords were stolen. In addition, many codes were added to people’s files. According to Jeffrey Barke, there were codes injected in index.php, and while there were codes injected in other parts of the site, I’d like to take a look at index.php’s code:
