Mephisto and Dates
February 10th, 2009 Sorry for the weird behavior of my blog recently. I somehow managed (I'm still unsure about how) that the article dates reverted to February instead of its original January. Hey, is there a XSS again out there for Mephisto blogs? Please let me know.
Tynt copying on the fly - or Graffiti for the Web.

Have you ever heared of Tynt? Well, if you have no own homepage you can ignore this. Also if you have a homepage or a blog and you don't care what people do with your content you can also ignore this. Lastly, if you run advertisement on your page and you don't care about the money, you can also ignore this.
Tynt is a service for people to add or overlay comments and annotate things on your www pages as they see it. Well sounds harmless right, but take this for example.
Source: Eric Lander's blog.
You can add your Grafiti, yes you heared right to any page. They even explain it to you here in the Tynt help pages.
Unfortunately you can't sign up for an account currently (beta) phase so I can't give you more details. In anyway if you are interested, try Eric Lander's blog, here for the Offical Tynt blog.
In those ressources you can also find ip ranges you can block but this probably won't do as it could change quickly. One alternative could be to embedd a noindex tag into your pages, but thats a hack for another day.
If you want to try it out for yourself just use this schema: YOURURLHERE.tynted.net.
What do you think?
