This version contains a bunch of minor fixes! Nothing noticable to the eye but hopefully it will perform better!

You can download it under the Privacy Mantra page.

Text classification for everyone!

My great passion for text classification has lead to a new web service - uclassify.com. A text classifier is used to automatically categorize documents, exactly the way Cactus Spam Filter successfully has been doing for years now!

The only difference is that you don’t have to be a rocket scientist to write your own classifiers any longer. Anyone with basic programming skills can do it by using our xml api!

Ahh yes, it’s free and you are allowed to make money using the service!!

Sites that already are using uclassify.com

typealyzer.com - Analyzes the personality of a blog
genderanalyzer.com - Tries to figure out if a blog is written by a man and woman
ofaust.com - Matches texts agains classical authors such as Plato, Shakespeare, Tolstoy etc.

Web developers, start classifying and be a pioneer of Web 3.0!

I have just implemented a list of Wonderful People, a list of donators. Any contributor, regardless of amount, can choose to appear with their full name on this list, optionally with a link to a homepage. As I write this, the list is empty, who will be the first to enter the list of Wonderful People?

If you are a previous donator and wish to appear on this list, please let me know!

I just installed a plugin that allows me to run scripts directly from WordPress pages and posts called exec_php. It worked great as long as I didn’t try to include or require php files. Read the rest of this entry »

It’s Saturday evening, people are cheering outside my window and I am not sure why. For a few days I have been occupied with moving Codeode.com to new server. While doing this I decided to upgrade the entire homepage and move it to WordPress. Easy Peasy. I thought. Preserving link structure turned out to be a hairy mess (luckily not as hairy as my chest).

The idea is to have a more live and interactive site that is easy to update and get feedback on. Oh, I think the screaming is about a football game, Sweden VS Spain. It seems like we lost. Crap.

Feel free to comment on the new site, any feedback is appreciated (not spam though, lol, I may have to integrate Cactus Spam Filter into WordPress if Akismet isn’t doing it good enough.)
