Library Update: 2nd Quarter 2005
Thanks to DecliciWeb, I have completely redesigned my Personal Library. This catalogue of my library is technically complete, but I’m always purchasing new books, movies, music, and games. If you would like to trade or purchase, please contact me, and we’ll work something out. Current library stats:
Books: 309
Movies: 127
Music: 67 + 389 iTMS purchases
Games: 8
Note: The fore-mentioned library was getting far too large, so it is no longer available, but it was fun while it lasted.
PUM: Keep Spam Bots Out of Your Site
Whether or not you followed our Create a Website for Free tutorial, your site or blog may be hit by a wide variety of spammers or bandwidth-wasting bots. Fortunately, blocking this scourge is far more easy than you think. It’s all here in this edition of the Power User Monday Tip of the [almost every] Week.
Update: For those who are curious, I’ve added a note about robots.txt and why it was not originally included in this tutorial.
Revenge of the Sith: Easter Eggs
As expected, there were a few Easter Eggs hidden throughout Star Wars: Episode III – Revenge of the Sith. You can find a short list of the Easter Eggs, recently released by the StarWars.com team, here.
Update: Star Wars: Episode III – Revenge of the Sith is now available on DVD, and there is at least one easter egg on disc one.
Star Wars: Full Circle
With the end of the prequel trilogy, the saga of Star Wars has finally come full circle. Yes, I finally saw Star Wars: Episode III – Revenge of the Sith last night. Unfortunately, I wasn’t able to see it before Chris and Michael, but I tried my best. This is definitely a movie to see in the theaters! The first half of the film contains your usually dry prequel stuff, but the last half of the film contains some of the best moments in the entire Star Wars saga! If you have not yet seen Star Wars: Episode III – Revenge of the Sith, you may want to wet your appetite with this theatrical trailer.
Now that the prequels are over with, I highly recommend purchasing the original Star Wars Trilogy on DVD. Keep in mind that this DVD set does not contain the theatrical releases of the original Star Wars trilogy. There were a few changes made to each film in order to reflect the continuity that was established by the prequel trilogy.
