How to automatically backup your entire blog

by Eugen on February 10, 2010

It happened to me once. I lost 6 months of hard work and it was painful.

Back in 2006, I created with two of my friends an online community, which started to grow quite fast and soon became well known.

But soon after the launch, the worst happened. Our website was hacked. That was hard, quite hard, but the hardest part was that we did not have backups, so the ultimate solution was to stop working for that project.

Now, if you are thinking that having a simple backup could have saved our 6 months of hard work, you will not have seconds thoughts to get yourself an automatic backup system in place for your WordPress website.

So here it is, our guest for today: Automatic WordPress Backup. Click to continue reading…

Following an idea by Shaun Inman, called Shortwave, Joost de Valk from Yoast revealed yesterday Quix, a command line bookmarklet tool for your browser, on steroids. :)

Quix combines multiple bookmarklets across multiple browsers and allows you to maintain all of them into one place.

Quix is an extensible bookmarklet, that allows you to easily access all your bookmarks and bookmarklets, across all your browsers, while maintaining them in only one spot. All you have to do is remember the shortcut for the bookmarklet, so, basically, it’s like a command line for your browser!

Ta-da Lists

by Eugen on November 15, 2009

I like to stay organized and manage my time wisely. This is why I need tools which can help me organize my tasks and activities.

My notebook, I can name it a “tool”, is always here for me to keep track of my tasks and notes. But it’s not the perfect task manager.

Fortunately, I recently discovered the Ta-Da List, a web based to-do list which helps me create lists with my tasks and share them with others. It takes 10 seconds to sign-up and it’s absolutely free or charge.

Ta-da lists

Create your lists

With Ta-Da List you can create lists of activities you need to make.

Complete your tasks

Once you have completed one of your tasks, just check the box and the to-do is marked as Done.

Share your lists

If you are looking to share your lists, you have the possibility to do it with anyone you want and let them add new tasks or mark them as Done. But if you want to share a list with anyone and don’t want it to be changed just check the option “Yes, share publicly”. Keep in mind that those lists may be seen by anyone and may be indexed by search engines.
As the guys from 37signals say about Ta-da Lists, it couldn’t be simpler.

Ta-Da List is offered by 37signals, a web based software company which provides simple collaboration software for small businesses.
