Last night I couldn’t remember a website I’ve already visited, thank God for Google History.
While browsing away i took a look at my trends and here they are:
My top sites of all times are:
- 1.ubuntuforums.org
- 2.svn.haxx.se
- 3.www.linuxforums.org
- 4.www.google.com
- 5.www.debian-administration.org
- 6.www.computerhope.com
- 7.www.ajaxload.info
- 8.wordpress.org
- 9.en.wikipedia.org
- 10.digg.com
The weird thing is that i though my top site should be digg.com or google.com… could google be mistaken ? ? ? i dont think that i visited svn.haxx.se more then google.com… weird ha ?

Lately I’ve been using ubuntu 7.10 for all my projects/daily work.
As a web developer i should have LAMP on my machine and now i would guide you through installing it on yours.
This guide is divided into 3 steps: installing/tesing Apache, PHP and finally MySQL.
Lets start with Apache:
1. Open the terminal (we will be using it through most of my guide) from Applications > Accessories > Terminal
2. Install apache2 using apt-get by typing the following

As you have probably noticed my wordpress is now upgraded to 2.3.1 :D.
While upgrading i decided that what the heck, i will download a new theme and install it. After searching and searching and searching and then i searched a little more i found and settled on K2.
K2 is an advanced template for the blogging engine WordPress started by Michael Heilemann, who also wrote Kubrick (the default theme of wordpress).
As the developers said: ‘It won’t make you coffee, sing songs of sweet regret or sit at your bedside when you’re ill, but it might make life just a tad bit easier for you.’
Some of the most cool stuff i liked about it are:
1- Ajax search bar (on my top right sidebar)
2- The ability of dividing the blog into 1,2 or 3 columns from the K2 sidebar management
3- Its very flexible management menu (view screenshot)

I strongly recommend you try it

It seems that google AdSense is getting less popular day by day !! Last week 3 of my friends removed their AdSense ads:
ekhoury.com, vcoders.com, exoleb.com.
From my personal point of view, Google AdSense has conquered the web and have no real competitors… they know that ! The problem is that they (AdSense) don’t encourage you to join in, no signup bonus money, very low click rate and getting lower, their ads are getting more and more boring because you see them everywhere on the web.
What is needed now is another competitor for google AdSense, I was referred by Elie Khoury (ekhoury.com) to WidgetBucks. I have tried it and here are the pros:
1- Easier to setup
2- Better looking ads
3- 25 $ signup bonus money
4- Higher click rate
5- Their ads open in a new page 
6- They are new and exited
So why not ? Maybe WidgetBucks will even improve AdSense in a way 
I really advise you to try it, you wont regret it
