sphpblog – php blog scripts with text storage

blog, blogging, sphpblog, php, open source, free software, gnu/gpl

One of my friends is using sphpblog as his blogging platform which makes me curious to try it out myself.

Simple PHP Blog script is a simple blog application which only uses text files as its data storage. This in turn makes it one of the simplest php blog script to install, you just need to unpack it and you’re done (well you need to change some write permission).

sphpblog packs the most features for its size. It has (among others) :

  • Comments
  • Trackbacks
  • Post Category
  • Syndication feed (RSS 2.0, RSS 1.0, ATOM 0.3
  • Search feature
  • Article Rating
  • Article views counter
  • Contact Me page
  • Build in blog stats
  • Archives Calendar
  • and many more…!

sphpblog certainly has more than I could expect from a blogging platform, it’s simple requirements of using PHP version > 4.3.x (it supports PHP5 too) and a couple of write permissions makes it easy to install.

Finally, sphpblog is available for download here, under the terms of GNU General Public License version 2.0

 

It’s the last day of the year 2005

Today is the last day of 2005, looking back at the year, it seems that i’ve accomplished some of my objectives along the way. I wonder what 2006 will bring me?

Uh, to me new year only means that the months wraps back to January and I’ve to remember to change the year when I write dates lol. Nothing to do with motivations though, if you are only motivated to list out your objectives and resolution during a new year, then I guess that you are a bit silly though. A real motivated person create objectives and achieve them all the time. So don’t wait until new year, create mission objectives and work on them now.
new year, 2006, malaysia, resolution, motivation

Today in history – tsunami 2004

I’ve read my daily subscription of “This Day in History”, this time it mentioned about tsunami that hit Southeast Asia including part of Penang, Kedah, Phuket and Acheh. It was the most devastating event of that year, the tsunami has cost many lives and places which has been struck by it are still recovering.

I remembered the event, as my daily routine was interrupted something that can be described as “unusual shaking”, almost felt like I was on a boat or a ship. The pictures on the wall are moving, and people claiming that the earth is moving, it’s an earthquake, and that’s around 10-11am, and i was shocked to learn the news of the big tidal wave that hit Penang and Kuala Muda. It could be frightening to think about what the forces of nature can do to you.

Merry Christmas 2005
