Why AWS is better than Rackspace

Why AWS is better than Rackspace

I’m huge fan of AWS services. It just works – don’t need any kind of support, prices are really good. No issues whatsoever. But – of course my nature ask me to check out other options. For example Rackspace . So I registered account, filled out my business and credit details. Just to give a small background – got registered business since 2011 in Australia. I filled out my CC details, phone number and so on. Pretty standard process. I logged in, and start playing with their interface (pretty slow, but I shouldn’t complain yet). The best is about to come…

Why I don’t recommend mailgun…

Couple months ago I listed services having API for sending and receiving emails . One of them was mailgun – I was using it for a while since… yesterday. My account was locked without any valid reason. Something related with SPAM: http://documentation.mailgun.com/razor.html Reference: #rzr01. Because I know exactly what emails are being sent using my accounts (I keep track of each email coming out from the system) I was really interested how it could happen.
Serialize form to object – jQuery

Serialize form to object – jQuery

It’s pretty easy to serialise form using jQuery –

$('#formid').serialize();

or by

$('#formid').serializeArray();

But neither of them it’s easy to modify. Really useful snippet – serialise form to object.

A clipboard manager for Mac OS X

A clipboard manager for Mac OS X

Really tiny but useful program.  ClipMenu can manage clipboard history. You can record 8 clipboard types, from plain text to image. To paste a recorded item, you just pop up menu by invoking the shortcut key, and select a menu item from the menu.

There is also snippet function – you can also register texts you frequently use, like e-mail addresses, user IDs and so on. You can paste these snippets from the menu, too.
