The version of RealPlayer for osx is really better than the Windows version. Osx version has no ads, banners or registration requests. Application is really fast and it’s Universal (so great for your macbook).
Here you can download it
p.s. I promised not to use anymore iTunes that always make a mess with my mp3 files (is RealPlayer a good iTunes clone?)

Chapter 3 of the free DJANGO BOOK has been released:

Your first view: Dynamic content
As our first goal, let’s create a Web page that displays the current date and time. This is a good example of a dynamic Web page, because the contents of the page are not static — rather, the contents change according to the result of a computation (in this case, a calculation of the current time).
This simple example doesn’t involve a database or any sort of user input — just the output of your server’s internal clock.

You are given two ropes and a lighter. This is the only equipment you can use. You are told that each of the two ropes has the following property: if you light one end of the rope, it will take exactly one hour to burn all the way to the other end. But it doesn’t have to burn at a uniform rate. In other words, half the rope may burn in the first five minutes, and then the other half would take 55 minutes. The rate at which the two ropes burn is not necessarily the same, so the second rope will also take an hour to burn from one end to the other, but may do it at some varying rate, which is not necessarily the same as the one for the first rope. Now you are asked to measure a period of 45 minutes. How will you do it?

To review or not to review? This is not the real question. The question is: “is moral to get paid for writing a review for an advertiser?” I think the only good answer is YES, but only if they are free to express their opinion and if the “sponsored” nature of post has been declared. If you accept to host google adsense banners, why not hosting some paid reviews?

This post is paid by the new “reviewme“, a new pay4post system that gives you 25 to 2500$ for a single review. My blog has a 60$ Price (the Payout is 30$, so only 50% of the advertisers price and this is the only thing I think that sucks).

How does the system work? Here’s the answer from the site faq:

How do I get review offers? How can I review more stuff?
In the ReviewMe system, advertisers choose which blogs review them. So basically, sit back, and let the review offers come to you.

p.s.
When you are accepted as a blogger by ReviewMe, your first review offer will come from ReviewMe itself. We will keep ordering reviews from new bloggers until we have paid out $25,000!

This is my page for Advertisers. So, let’s ask for a review!!

Should I use p or br?

The p element marks up a paragraph of text. A paragraph is one or more sentences that deal with a single thought.

A line break (br) is mostly a presentational tool, and should be handled by CSS rather than HTML. However, there are a few cases where line breaks can be said to have semantic meaning, for instance in poetry, song lyrics, postal addresses and computer code samples. These can constitute legitimate uses for br, but using br to separate paragraphs is definitely an abuse of the br element.

On the other hand, p has a very clear semantic meaning: it denotes a paragraph. Sometimes web authors tend to treat p as a generic block-level container element, but that’s not correct. It’s not uncommon to see a label and an input field wrapped inside a p within a form, but I would argue that it’s semantically wrong. A label and an input field do not constitute a “paragraph”.
