		<title>Obscure</title>
		<description><![CDATA[i love working on an obscure book.  people cling to ideas, because they&#8217;re supposed to be vouchers for a million dollars.  no, write an obscure book.  build something outside all that pressure.  i guess treehouses for kids qualify.
_why, Sep 2004

Where&#8217;s _why? I do hope all is OK.

		<title>The Long Poll: AJAX Push(like) Chat with Comet</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Recently I&#8217;ve been working on an AJAX based chat application (in development..). The obvious way to do it is send an XMLHttpRequest every few seconds to check for new messages. Unless it&#8217;s a particularly animated conversation most requests won&#8217;t return any new content, so I added a simple Conditional-GET like system based on the chat&#8217;s [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=niryariv.wordpress.com&blog=43536&post=299&subd=niryariv&ref=&feed=1" />]]></description>

		<title>FeedVolley: Messages From Iran</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I just put up a quick hack I made with FeedVolley (more about FV here), that aggregates Twitter (and other media) feeds coming from inside Iran: Messages From Iran
I don&#8217;t know about news value, but it&#8217;s pretty cool to be able to refresh that page now and then and get a snapshot of the current [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=niryariv.wordpress.com&blog=43536&post=291&subd=niryariv&ref=&feed=1" />]]></description>

		<title>41411 Rmmbr: Text Your Inbox</title>
		<description><![CDATA[rmmbr is a service I built for myself and recently opened for general use. I wanted a way to send myself notes about things I need to do, items I want to research etc. If just write this on a scrap of paper I usually seem to forget about it, so using Textmarks&#8216; web-SMS gateway [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=niryariv.wordpress.com&blog=43536&post=263&subd=niryariv&ref=&feed=1" />]]></description>

		<title>JSONP, Quickly</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I discovered JSONP just recently, following Chris&#8216; comment. Though I initially didn&#8217;t intend to support JSON, JSONP made enough difference that I rewrote most of the TheRealURL code (all 20 lines of it) to support it. Since it took me some time to figure out JSONP initially, perhaps a quick guide might help those who [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=niryariv.wordpress.com&blog=43536&post=215&subd=niryariv&ref=&feed=1" />]]></description>

		<title>The Real URL</title>
		<description><![CDATA[[UPDATED on April 21st, 2009 to reflect the JSON/P additions. Since it's &#60;24 hours after the initial release, I hope it won't cause anyone problems.]
The Real URL began as a joke &#8211; after discovering, while working on another project, over 80 URL shortening services, I figured there must be room for a service that un-shortens [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=niryariv.wordpress.com&blog=43536&post=176&subd=niryariv&ref=&feed=1" />]]></description>

		<title>List of URL Shortening Sites</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I&#8217;ve been compiling this list of URL shortening services for some time now, for use in one of my projects, and thought it might help developers who need it for their own work (or VCs who seek to place a couple $mil on one)
Anyway, here are the 74 82 (thanks commentors!)  sites I got [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=niryariv.wordpress.com&blog=43536&post=154&subd=niryariv&ref=&feed=1" />]]></description>

		<title>Backing Up MySQL Database with Subversion</title>
		<description><![CDATA[While working on a recent Rails project, I wanted to occasionally backup the database to a remote location. Since we were already using Subversion for source control, I figured I could just use it for storing the DB contents as well and came up with a short Ruby script for this, called dbbackup (ironically, stored [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=niryariv.wordpress.com&blog=43536&post=133&subd=niryariv&ref=&feed=1" />]]></description>

		<title>Prixfeed Earns Its Keep (Almost)</title>
		<description><![CDATA[First revenue ever from Prixfeed, my RSS-of-Amazon-prices app, arrived in my email today in the form of an Amazon gift certificate:

While not exactly retiring yet, I&#8217;m pretty proud of this little app. Very simply done, no marketing to speak of, barely Googleable, it somehow managed to attract users. Not many &#8211; but those who find [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=niryariv.wordpress.com&blog=43536&post=123&subd=niryariv&ref=&feed=1" />]]></description>
