I friend of mine just send me a link to this video, this is sickly awesome and sad at the same time: http://www.i-am-bored.com/bored_link.cfm?link_id=17656. It's nuts. Thought I'd share. "Forget DDR check this action out.. He hits 16 keys a second."

I just checked the Fantastico section in cPanel and got this error: -- Also, is there a problem with MySQL at the moment? In cPanel it says I am using "/3" databases rather than"1/3", and when I try to create new tables/add new users nothing happens.. it says they were created but then they...

As many Nintendo fans know, the release date of the newest installation of the Zelda series has been delayed to the fall of 2006... originally it was supposed to be released about a month ago. All I can say is it better be good, but I know it will -- developers promise this to be the "best"...

I found a snippet of JS code on some website and I'm trying to mold it into something I can use. Unfortuntely, only half the script works. The script is supposed to count 1... 2... 3... etc. (at least for now, I have other intentions later), but it returns an error in IE (stops in Opera) when...

I noticed these mistakes/bugs when the new site was first opened and I mentioned them both via PM and in the announcement topic but neither have been attended. 1) On the index page, it says x10 Advanced gets 2 MySQL databases, whereas on http://x10hosting.com/hosting?type=free it says...
