Update: looks like the macro must be all on one line, which makes adding a lot of html code a bit challenging. At least this works well for google ads within moinmoin
Found the HTML moin macro which is extremely useful!

Some more Firefox addons I find useful.

Some more things I find useful for Firefox. Flashblock blocks any Flash embedded in webpages, and is a great way to protect your system from flash vulnerabilities while still giving the option to run specific flash content with just one click. Noscript is similar but instead is for any scripts that try to run. Firebug is a web developing tool, and lets you dynamically change content from any website, letting you examine how a website is put together:

Here are a few Firefox customizations that I always do on a new install (access the options by the URL about:config). The dns option is necessary if you are using a proxy and want dns lookups to go through the proxy rather than your local dns server:

- browser.tabs.selectOwnerOnClose;false
- network.proxy.socks_remote_dns;true

Bluetooth on FreeBSD
The following is an excellent step by step guide to getting a bluetooth mouse to work on FreeBSD. The article is from 2006, but still applies to FreeBSD 7.1. I have the Lenovo x61s ThinkPad and ThinkPad mouse. http://destari.blogspot.com/2006/01/setting-up-bluetooth-mouse-on-freebsd.html

Redesign of website!
I'm trying out MoinMoin as a simple CMS. I want a simple way to add content to this site without having to deal with Web/html editors etc. As the web host for this site only allows html pages, I created a script to pull out the content of my locally running instance, and then upload it here! Details on the process can be found at MoinCMS.
