Wordpress vs. MODx

Wednesday, December 31st, 2008

Sorry for recent downtime on the site.

We are in the process of converting our blog from Wordpress to MODx.  We just think that MODx is more customizable and need more flexibility than Wordpress offers. 

So far we have all the features working except Categories, Tags, Comment captcha’s, and Pagenation’s.. but that should be worked out be the end of the day. 

We have made a few 301 redirects for popular blogs since formatting has changed.. sorry for the inconvenience.

Thanks go out to the best cms MODx and the MODx community!

What have we done!

I would like to thank everyone who dugg us for the flying spagetti monster picture… we have a running tab of 878 diggs!!!!

Not sure why the site began 403ing the image.. we did not touch the site after two posts in a row and we are working it out with our host mosso to see why this happened.

Secondly.. i think this wee little blog initiated a FSM revival since http://www.venganza.org/ is often taking too long to load! (if you are from there let us know what happened! info [at] hackerblog.net)

May he wrap you all his noodley appendages

There have been recent sightings of the Flying Spaghetti Monster… we at Hacker Blog think is a hoax.

After further investigation and extensive research we can put this conspiracy to rest.

Cash4Gold Sues the Consumerist

Monday, December 1st, 2008

By now your probably aware of those cheesy late night
advertisements or MC Hammer giving rep to Cash4Gold during the super
bowl. Well as hokey as these ads may be it makes big business and
nay sayers are big problem.

I know it’s hard to believe but,
Cash4Gold has decided to sue The Consumerist! Now it seems to me
that the last thing I would want to do when being accused of ripping
others off was to draw attention to myself, but Cash4Gold doesn’t see
it that way. The Consumerist is not just small blog either! The
once owned Gawker blog was bought by Consumer Reports, the gods of
consumer reviews!

 

So instead of taking it on the chin
Cash4Gold has gotten up for round two, but how did Cash4Gold grind
itself into this mess? Two former employees, Michele Liberis and
Vielka Nephew, are being sued for their posts on The Consumerist for
defamation.

What next.. will they sue The Onion!

Since writing this article Ive learned about the
