A pretty amazing piece of JavaScript dropped yesterday and it's going to take a little bit to digest it all. It's a GreaseMonkey script, written by 'Shaun Friedle', that automatically solves captchas provided by the site Megaupload. There's a demo online if you wish to give it a spin.
Making Wait Times Feel Shorter
Nobody likes slow software because they have to wait. Waiting means you’re spending your time doing nothing because of something else that’s out of your control. But waiting is an integral part of our interaction with computers and the software they run. Things don’t happen instantly. You need to wait for applications to load, wait for websites to download, wait for software to compile and so on.
WordPress MU 2.7 beta
A beta version of WordPress MU 2.7, the multi blog version of WordPress that runs on such sites as WordPress.com has just been uploaded and is available here.
This is quite a stable release and has been tested by many but it’s not the final 2.7 release so there are probably bugs we haven’t found yet. Don’t put it into production just yet, but if you’re working on a new site, you’re better off using this rather than 2.6.5 as the final WordPress MU 2.7 will be along soon.
