Collapsible Sidebar

So my blog has been updated with a collapsible sidebar. If your browser supports Javascript (which it should) you will see a vertical bar to the right of the main content. If you click on the bar the main content area will stretch to the width of my header bar. This is useful if I post code that is too wide for the main content area on my blog. Anyway, tell me what you guys think.

Okay, most everyone should be familiar with the SNL group making songs like “Jizz in My Pants” and “I’m on a Boat”, well here’s a video mash up of the TV show Chuck and the song “Jizz in My Pants” that I think is freaking hilarious.

Subverting Vista UAC With a Service

This is exactly what I was looking for, it took me forever to find it. And so here it is: code to subvert vista uac with a service! http://www.codeproject.com/KB/vista-security/SubvertingVistaUAC.aspx?display=Print. Please thank me later for giving you a link to this. I needed this to be able to lock the keyboard and mouse in my CCS project on standard user accounts on vista. The only thing. I could have used this code a week ago and saved myself a lot of coding.
UPDATE: The Code does not work for XP, so you still have to find ways to make it work for both. So the design I made before is still a good way to do things. I just need to use this for the keyboard and mouse blocker.

CCS

So, I’ve been working on my open source Classroom Control System this month, and I’ve just started to write the installers. If you are familiar with NetOp’s School6 software, you know how powerful a classroom control system can be.
My classroom control system will allow teachers to see what student computers are on and apply actions to any of them. Teachers can rearrange the internal frames that represent the student computers and save the layout as he / she sees fit (useful to easily tell what computer you are controlling). The teacher can remote control a student’s computer via the CCS’s interface. That particular function uses the free program RealVNC. Just think if the teacher’s computer is hooked to a projector. The teacher can ask a student to perform a task for the class, or they can answer the question that the student had for the class. If the room doesn’t have a projector, the teacher can simply use the Broadcast Screen function to broadcast his / her screen to any or all of the student computers.
But there’s more. The teacher can set a whitelist or blacklist for both programs and websites and save the policies under his / her particular profile. You can also do things like Turn Off Monitor, Turn Off Machine, Empty Recycle Bin, Mute Volume, Unmute Volume, and set an open lab.
I’ll make sure to put up a link when I’m finally done.
Dreamhost

So I was currently getting my webhosting from Eleven2. I had some problems with outages and some problems with them disabling features on the server causing plugin problems on wordpress and / or drupal. Eleven2 is pretty good hosting, but Dreamhost has them beat by far. Dreamhost has SSH and even SVN. I’m excited to get this new hosting, and even without a refund from Eleven2 for the year I bought, I think it’s worth it (especially because I got the first year under Dreamhost for $22). So if you are looking into getting a new webhost, I would highly recommend Dreamhost.
