Fun fact: Google Reader will understand http://twitter.com/username as an RSS feed. The trick is to remove the hashbang that Twitter automatically adds to the URL (i.e. http://twitter.com/#!/username) before attempting to add it as a feed.


This is awesome. Thanks!

ah, I knew that! Thanks, noted.


If there are .svn directories still present, it's likely that they just copied a working copy to their web server. You're supposed to use "svn export" to create a "production" version without the .svn directories. Or just delete them. Either way, this is really VCS misuse more than anything else.


Using subversion for deployment is a common practice. They should be blocking access to the .svn directories via web server configuration.


Thanks for your post, ashishk. I've been ogling the various netbooks/ultraportables/what-have-you, not wanting to spend gobs of money but also really wanting to have one, just for the sake of having one. This seems like a nice compromise between those two conflicting desires.


yeah, i like my mac, but the mb air doesnt seem worth the money (for the portability, atleast). this, however, seems very reasonable.
