Sandwich – what kind do you like?

Darko at 5:56 pm on Monday, February 16, 2009

Project is located at www.sendvic.com (sendvič = eng. sandwich) so as you can see I’m using a generic domain name.

This is my first mini social website and I’m using something new to me – Google FriendConnect service. For now, I just put some user gadgets on a site, and we’ll see how it’ll work when/if I get some visitors to join my community.

Darko at 10:31 am on Tuesday, July 22, 2008

Recently I was alarmed that one of my late projects is under attack. It was one of my first websites I created using ASP+MS SQL.

Looking at .LOG files and database it was clear that the attack was done using SQL injection method, which is of course a shame on my work but it somehow slips through my fingers at certain lines of code. We all live and learn… There is a saying – who works, makes mistakes.

txtberry-whois.jpgThere is a nice blackberry-alike domain name I own, and I decided to develop some simple web on it. Since I have a need to check whois data from time to time, I made a simple script and adjust it for mobile devices – no large images, javascripts, just a simple text. Read more >>

wwwdotcom.jpgDoing some research on name generators that are available on the net, I’ve found a number of web sites that helps you defining a perfect name for you new business.

Most of them are using the old method – step-by-step guide where you are asked a number of questions and answers should give you an idea on what kind of name you’re actually looking for. Other web sites are helping you with keyword research – all you have to do is enter a few keywords that you like and within the next few seconds the system will print out a number of keyword combinations, they also put some “addons” to a research results like “online”, “my”, etc.
