First time using Airbnb. Awesome experience.

Apartment was about same price as a 2 star hotel, but at 5 minutes walk from times square and with a lot more freedom (cook what we want, do what we want, more spacious) than in a hotel. And it was a good experience for us. Something different than the usual 5 star hotels in Tibet/China.

Thanks to Jamie for hosting us. I can greatly recommend him and this apartment.

Yourls + WP plugin

· Linux, Software, www

I came against a problem that my Yourls WordPress plugin refused to generate a short url (it timed out when publishing a post; and it sent a tweet with no url).

And when someone visited the post it tried to regenerate a new short url (and this often resulted in 4-5 short urls being created) with title “301 moved permanently”.

Overall, tracking 891 links, 93,876 clicks, and counting!

Because it took me about 10 minutes to Google it, I’ll recap it here;

 

If tethering is unavailable on ones iPhone, and you have to helpdesk him/her out of it, go to:

Settings > General > Network > Cellular Data Network

And set “Cellular data” to:

APN: web.be
username: web
password: web

And reboot the device… Tethering should/will be available.
