Wow! basically this FireFox based browser changes user’s real IP address to a different address every time. So in the web server’s log, it is random ip address.

The downside is that the Internet connection speed is degraded noticebly. I guess its because it may take sometime to change IP address.

It is a desktop search tool with output of graphical relationships between your search result. It can check and analyze your Word Excel and PDF files in your local desktop. It is a nice tool.

It’s now open source. Just setup and use it.

I may be able to find some hidden gems in my dark hidden spot of my desktop.

I was looking for an easy to use photo gallery and I was browsing wordpress.org’s plugin links page.

There are many kinds of plugin and I was visiting each plugin one by one. Then I decided to choose Flickr Photo Gallery plugin for my photo album solution.

I choose Flickr Photo Gallery because…

• The main reason is that I do not have to store all my pictures in my web hosting server. I used to use gallery solution in my web server with all the pictures stored local hard disk because I did not like the idea of putting my pictures on the other website such as Flickr. However the negative side of local stored picutres are (1) taking up too much space and (2) hard to back up the website since there are more hard disk space to back up, and (3) taking up too much bandwidth.
• Flickr Photo Gallery provides nice phto album page that is completed integrated with your wordpress theme.
• Flickr Photo Gallery provides the fuctionality of using LightBox2 Javascript package. You just need to enable the $useLightbox in the file photoalbum-header.html of Flickr folder by setting it to “true”.

So here is my photo album.

This is the link of how-to setup Lightbox2 and IImage Browser plugin for easy photo insertion to a posting. It is very nice!

However, the setup process is not that simple.

Make sure you install PHP-GD rpm package (GD2) for the thumbnail creation by IImage Browser. It is necessary.

By the way, I have used the below WP plugin for lightbox2.

Try them out. If you like coding , they are good substitution for Courier New.
