MySpace Feed tool lets you important headlines from your blog, LiveJournal, a news feed, or other source into your MySpace (or Friendster) page.

MySpace Feed converts the headline text into an image. We have a script that updates the images once a day.

MySpace Blog Editor is an extension which allows you to post directly from within Firefox to your MySpace blog.

The MySpace Blog Editor allows you to post directly from within Firefox to your MySpace blog aswell as save notes, drag and drop formatted text from webpages, handle images and much more.

This is the IRC gateway for Microsoft(tm) Messenger.

You probably wonder what this is and why I wrote this. Some more information can be found in the DESIGN document that is included in this package.

This software is written by Johannes Verelst and is licensed through the GPL license (http://www.gnu.org/licenses/gpl.html).

Note that this is pre-alpha code, it probably does a bit that you want, but dont email me bugreports or feature requests. It is under heavy development.

If this program doesnt run try to install corectly all required perl modules yourself.

The idea for this program came when I was getting annoyed by the fact that I had to use different programs for both IRC and MSN. Since I dont know of any good MSN clients that can do IRC too (on unix, ofcourse), I started thinking about the other way around: an IRC client that can do MSN.

When I saw a piece of software written by Adam Swann that allows easy connectivity to MSN with perl, I decided to write an IRC server in perl that would connect to MSN for you. This is the result.

OO Text To Speech is a text-to speech macro for OpenOffice.org.

Its a syllable analyzer: using a reading motor, it reads a document and translates it into a vocal message.

Transfer to Media Device is a script that creates a new Playlist Right Click Menu item for transferring selected playlist items to your iPod via the Media Device Browser.
This script now also supports generic copy to operation for USB mass storage devices. Currently the script will prompt for a destination directory on first copy, in the future this setting will be saved in a configuration file.
This script works with amaroK 1.3beta3 and above.
Usage:
Run from the amaroK script manager. A new menu item will appear in the Playlist right mouse button menu.
Select files in the playlist and Right click -> Transfer to -> iPod for transfering to an iPod.
Select files in the playlist and Right click -> Transfer to -> USB Device for transfering to a USB device.
Enhancements:
- Add support for Creative Nomad Jukebox devices using the kionjb kioslave. Thanks to Ralf T for the patch.

RIR to DNS converter is a tool to convert Regional Internet Registry data to a DNS country lookup zone. You can use it to build your own DNS zone for looking up country codes from IP addresses.

It uses data directly from RIPE, ARIN, APNIC, LACNIC, and AFRINIC. The data can be updated on a schedule of your choosing.

The input data comes from:

ftp://ftp.afrinic.net/pub/stats/afrinic/delegated-afrinic-latest
ftp://ftp.apnic.net/pub/stats/apnic/delegated-apnic-latest
ftp://ftp.arin.net/pub/stats/arin/delegated-arin-latest
ftp://ftp.ripe.net/pub/stats/ripencc/delegated-ripencc-latest
ftp://ftp.lacnic.net/pub/stats/lacnic/delegated-lacnic-latest

The input data format is described in:

http://www.apnic.net/db/rir-stats-format.html

The output is a BIND 9 zone file that can be used to look up country codes
in a similar fashion to in-addr.arpa. For example, to find out what country
203.30.47.58 is:

host 58.47.30.203.rir.example.com
58.47.30.203.rir.example.com has address 127.0.65.86

where 65 and 85 are ASCII for A and U, which means 203.30.47.58 is
in Australia (AU).

HOW TO USE IT

Just feed it the above delegated- -latest files into stdin and it will
spit out the zone file to stdout. The zone file will only have the IP addresses,
so you could $INCLUDE it into a zone file that contains NS records, SOA, $ORIGIN,
etc.

WHY USE IT

You dont need the resolution of MaxMinds GeoIP database, but you do want
something that is free and you want it kept up to date on a schedule that
you decide.

You could use this to block or tag email based on countries, block or redirect
visitors to your website based on end-user country, and so on. Be very
careful about blocking mail this way, though, as you may block legitimate
email. Instead of blocking outright, use it in a SpamAssassin rule to add
something to the spam level, based on where the email comes from.

HOW IT WORKS

The RIR files contain ranges of IP addresses, and indicate what CC each range is allocated to. At the simplest level, rir2dns just sorts the ranges then iterates
through the IPs in each range and generates a reverse-dns-style A record that
represents the country code.

HOW IT WORKS - IN DETAIL

Rather than iterate through each IP address, the program tries to skip through
entire classes at a time (256 IPs, 65536 IPs, etc). Rather than iterate
through each IP, the loop iterates through classes or IP ranges (whichever are
smaller at the loop control), using control-breaks to accummulate neighbouring
ranges where possible so that entire classes that are in the same country dont
generate huge numbers of records.

Firstly, IPs are considered to be 4-digit numbers, but in base-256. In other
words, each octet is dealt with as if it were a single base-256 digit. This
turns out to be convenient because optimisations of large chunks of IP space can be done by looking for places where least-significant base-256 digits are zero.

Next, IP ranges are broken down into the following sub-ranges:

Optional individual IP addresses (ie: 4 octets)
Optional A-class ranges (ie: 3 octets)
Optional B-class ranges (ie: 2 octets)
Optional C-class ranges (ie: 1 octet)
Optional B-class ranges (ie: 2 octets)
Optional A-class ranges (ie: 3 octets)
Optional individual IP addresses (ie: 4 octets)

Considering that there is a pattern here, Im sure theres an elegant way to
handle breaking this down into two loops (one reducing the octets and one
increasing the octets), but I cant be bothered, so Ill break it down into
seven loops. Kind of hard-coded, but at least its simple.

For ease of processing, the IP addresses are actually converted to 32-bit numbers, then back again. This simplifies mathematics and looping through ranges.

Thats pretty much it, really...

Note that currently there are about 80,000 RIR records between all five
registries. This takes about 35 seconds on a 2.4GHz P4 to process, and
generates a 26MB file with around 3/4 million lines (RRs). This causes BIND
to use about 100MB or so of memory, and on a slow machine will probably cause it to take too long to reply, while it searches the zone. That size zone can
take a minute or two to load, which is quite a while.

Basic algorithm:

Read & process RIR data:

Read RIR ranges
Sort RIR ranges by start IP address
Glue together contiguous ranges of the same country

For each range

Generate the IPs at the start of the range

Generate the A-classes at the start of the range

Generate the B-classes at the start of the range

Generate the C-classes in the middle of the range

Generate the B-classes at the end of the range

Generate the A-classes at the end of the range

Generate the IPs at the end of the range

PHP-Spacester is a clone of the MySpace and Friendster social networking sites. It strives to be dynamic.

PHP-Spacester project will also support the XDNS (Xotmid Distributed Network System), which means that all sites can be connected to hubs that are in turn connected to each other, allowing all sites to share data

PHP-Spacester started off as a fork of Astrospaces, and shows its support to their team. If you have any questions please ask on our mailing list or forums.
