OK, sorry things have been so dead around here lately.
Don’t blame me! Blame Twitter!!!! I seem to do so much more talking on Twitter about things I’d normally write on this blog. It’s shameful I know.
Let’s recap some stuff that’s been going on recently.
- I found a pretty awesome collection of downloadable dictionary databases, which is exactly the kind of thing that I get excited about. It’s like finding buried treasure. We all know about Word Net, but there are some other really great pieces of data in there as well.
- Esrun outed a trick I told him about a while back.
Never mind the fact that I asked him not to talk about it…who cares….Esrun is practically a fucking saint for giving you all his little Gmail Account Creator script. So he can say whatever he wants.
Basically, when you are mass creating google accounts, after a few accounts are created, google will start serving you” sorry” messages instead of a captcha. The trick to get around this is to request the google captcha from one IP, but submit the form data from a second IP. Google doesn’t cross reference the submitting IP with the requesting IP. I think this is somewhat tied into the fact that Google uses the same captcha/account provisioning service for several of its different web properties (Gmail, Blogger, etc).
So basically, all you need to create unlimited Gmail accounts is two IPs because Google isn’t cross referencing them.
You know…come to think of it, I am somewhat depressed that Esrun stole my thunder on this one. You filthy sonuvabitch…..
Anyways, now Google will most likely patch it up pretty quick, so get on it now my friends!
- Thar be drama a brewin’ over at WickedFire, as Jon baits Shoemoney and then receives a C&D, which of course leads to more drama. I have always liked Wicked Fire, but I feel that this is a little bit….much. Anyways, I posted my thoughts over there so I wont repeat them here.
And with that, I’m off to enjoy a well deserved weekend.
Play nice kids.

Esrun sends his apologies
haha! It's OK if he blabbed about it first, we all know you're the true genius behind it.
