This is the easiest way to schedule tweets to Twitter. If you want to seriously start building traffic to your web site then regular tweets are essential.
First, make sure you have curl installed. cURL is often already present in Linux distros but Windows users will need to locate and install it.
The command is very simple which can be placed in a shell script (Linux) or a batch file (Windows). This can then be scheduled as you wish – I suggest you don’t over do it, the same message every minute will not be posted as it will be identical to your previous one and Twitter will reject it. Keep repeated messages a few minutes apart.
Right, down to the nitty gritty.

The command is fundamentally straight forward:

curl -u username:password -d status="Lets's have a good old tweet. http://goodoldtweet.twt" http://twitter.com/statuses/update.xml

The username:password is fairly obvious – just replace it with your own Twitter account login details.
The text following -d status= is your tweet message (I included my blog url).

Now, this produces output to the screen and is helpful when you want to know that the command has worked and what it did. However, this is no good if you want to automate the command. Screen output will cause an error in scheduled running of scripts and applications. Fortunately there is a way around this.
I shall show you how to do this in Linux as I currently don’t know the equivalent in Windows (it may be the same in Windows but don’t count on it).

curl -u username:password -d status="Lets have a good old tweet. http://goodoldtweet.twt" http://twitter.com/statuses/update.xml > /dev/null 2>&1

This makes sure that all output is cleanly dealt with without causing errors.

The shell script in which you place the command can now be scheduled as you wish.

It’s happened. Well almost.
Supersonic performance.

The race to petaflop supercomputers is heating up, with the latest entry coming from NASA, Intel and SGI. The trio announced plans to build what will be a petaflop-capable supercomputer by next year, and up to 10 petaflops (define) by 2012.

Supercomputers have been in a constant game of oneupsmanship and bragging rights. The definitive list of the fastest supercomputers, called Top500, is released twice a year, and for the last few years, IBM (NYSE: IBM) has dominated with its Blue Gene/L supercomputer at the Lawrence Livermore Laboratories.

With each update to the list, the number of teraflops (define) goes up because no matter how much processing power you give these machines, there’s still more demand for them. These massive systems aren’t just doing one job at a time. They are rented out to other agencies or researchers who have a massive computing task they need done.

What do we want from an article?
Answer: To tell us what we want to know as quickly as possible.

People don’t want tons of text to read through, just give us the answer as quickly and clearly as possible.

e.g.
Q: What’s the best email server system?
A: Most Postfix based systems e.g. Zimbra. http://www.zimbra.com

Job done.

I wanted to guage how good free hosting can be.
In the past I came across 000Webhost and was suprised how feature rich it was but, disappointed with its performance. Okay, you’re not going to get high performance from a free hosting service and they do need some form of lever to get you to sign up to their paid service but it does need to be good enough to get thousands of folks to sign up.
Some companies will drop in their own advertising but a lot leave you free from the ads but don’t give your site much performance.
I would very much appreciate anyone’s opinion on this matter.

In business, getting noticed is difficult. What do you do? Cold call (not good), post fliers – where / who?
To get noticed you need to develop a reputation. That means doing a good job or selling a good product and being recommended.
A lot easier said than done, you need to get your foot in the door.
I have boundless IT skills myself but, finding a customer who needs these skills is a tricky business.

My speciality is technical knowhow.

I host all my web sites at home on a pentium 4 based CentOS Linux server.
Built the server from scratch, installed CentOS4 (soon to be upgraded to CentOS5), configured (A)pache, (M)ySQL and (P)HP (Linux AMP or LAMP).
I installed WordPress, Joomla and Drupal. Most of my sites use WordPress, I find Joomla too rigid in its structure and Drupal is overly complex. A CMS (Content Management System) should be capable of providing you with a quickly running system – Drupal takes too much planning. If you have a better experience of it then let me know.

I also run my own postfix/dovecot email server. It’s quick but requires regular technical tweaks to keep the spam at bay but, I love it.
I built a ZIMBRA email server which was fun as it requires you to run your own DNS server. It all worked eventually but, I am short of spare hardware at the moment so will not be making full use of it until I need it. ZIMBRA email server is a full blown corporate email server system and handles spam very well. If you would like to know more then leave me a comment.

Ms. Blankenhorn says that Mozilla Firefox is pretty much the only application that gets regular security updates. This is true and lets face it, 99% of security threats to the desktop will come from that source and as Mozilla keep on top of these risks then that leaves 1%. Any risk needs attending to but, I have to say I have NEVER come across any form of malware in my years of open source use.

An article by Dana Blankenhorn on ZDNET is making a valid point regarding security updates or lack of them in the open source world. At first I thought, what is she talking about, of course open source gets regular updates but of course that doesn’t specifically address security. More often these updates are mearly upgrades – extra functionality and bug fixes but, some organisations are doing something about it. RedHat have always provided support packages, likewise CentOS (A RedHat EL source recompilation). RedHat / CentOS is for server based industry but, desktop systems are included in this. Security has always been at the forefront of all NIX systems and by its very nature is a million miles more secure than Microsoft based systems. As Linux desktops become more popular then there are going to be more security issues to consider but in my honest opinion it will never be the major concern that it is for Microsoft Windows.

The article does make a valid point but, is it a real risk?

Whilst many database and email server applications are free to download and implement, a 10-user and up networked office system requires careful planning and implementation. This is my speciality. The basics behind single user systems are usually straight forward but when you are looking at mass communication, it becomes a different kettle of fish. Backups and failover redundancy tasks require experience and knowledge.
Choosing the right tools for the job is vital. Even though there are many free and open source tools, this isn’t always the most sensible approach. Commercial tools can provide the expert with efficient and speedy answers to problems as can the experienced professional who knows what he’s doing.
