    Cannot redeclare pclziputilpathreduction() upgrade error and how to fix it!

    I have a blog that wasn’t update for a very long time. Its last post was March 25, 2009. I’m still using WordPress 2.7 in that blog. After attempting to upgrade it to WordPress 3.2, I encountered the error: Cannot redeclare pclziputilpathreduction().

    Now I wonder why I cannot update it. I tried figuring it by disabling my current WordPress plugins one by one, until I disabled WPAU. WPAU is the WordPress Automatic Upgrade plugin which is completely useless in the newer version of WordPress. Why? Because the WordPress core itself has an automatic upgrade feature and you don’t need to use this plugin to upgrade your blog to the latest WP version.

  • Google wipes out all .CO.CC domains, including www.co.cc itself

    Google wipes out all .CO.CC domains, including www.co.cc itself


    Too bad for .CO.CC owners, specially those who are using it as their main domain. Google recently wiped out all .CO.CC domains from its search index. Why? Because users of .CO.CC abused it. A lot of .CO.CC blogs and websites contain nothing but 100% spam, re-posted content, aggregated articles, and nothing but a bunch of gibberish data.

  • Transferring Funds from Paypal to Moneybookers and vice-versa

    Transferring Funds from Paypal to Moneybookers and vice-versa

    Transferring your funds from Paypal to Moneybookers is possible if you have a third party fund exchanger. If you don’t know anyone who accepts Paypal funds in exchange for Moneybookers.com funds, then there’s no way for you to transfer your funds. There are several entities online that accepts Paypal funds for MB funds, but you can’t easily find them.

    While googling about Paypal to Moneybookers exchangers, I found a lot of forum threads and people offering such service. I tried e-mailing them, but until now, nobody replied to my e-mail. I think transferring funds from Paypal to Moneybookers and vice-versa is not a profitable business, that’s why I can’t find a website that currently accept online currency exchanges. Hopefully sooner or later, there will be an online service that will automatically convert my Paypal funds to Moneybookers and other online cash.

  • Fluency 2.4 is not compatible with WP 3.2

    Fluency 2.4 is not compatible with WP 3.2

    That’s right guys. I just tried and tested it. The latest version of the Fluency Plugin which is version 2.4 looks like a disaster in WordPress 3.2. You can activate it, but you don’t want to use it. The drop down menus doesn’t drop down, because it’s already dropped.

    Technically, it doesn’t really drop down, but drop right. As you can see in the picture above. Let’s just hope that Dean Robinson will update Fluency 2.4 to 2.5 and make it compatible with WordPress 3.2. I hope he will not re-design it as I love the current design, and I bet a lot loves it too.

  • WordPress 3.2: Just another wordpress upgrade

    WordPress 3.2: Just another wordpress upgrade


    Wordpress 3.2 was recently released and you can now update your blog easily by clicking the upgrade to WordPress 3.2 link inside your WP admin. After upgrading to 3.2, you’ll notice a brand new user interface. It’s quite cooler and cleaner, because it’s newer, but I think I love to older UI much. I hope they will have an option to choose a user interface, but I guess they will never have it because they always want to change and change and change.

  • Google PR Update: June 27, 2011

    The Google PageRank or PR update this 27th day of June 2011 made a lot of people happy, but made a whole lot more people sad. Why? Because a lot gained a PageRank increase, but a whole lot more was PR slapped. Those who are affected negatively by the recent Panda 2.2 Google algorithm update are also affected negatively in the recent PR update.

    Based on my observation and analysis, high PR blogs that are now PR 0 are negatively affected by the recent Panda update. But blogs that suffered a decrease in PR by -2 or -3, are not seriously affected by the recent Panda algorithm.

  • Lumix GF3 will be out this July!

    Oh boy, I recently owned the awesome micro 4/3 called GF2, now GF3 will be out a month from now. Panasonic is really having fun creating new digital cameras in the micro 4/3 series huh? Honestly, I didn’t like the new design of this micro four thirds, but I guess I will still get one for my younger sister.

    She wants a brand new camera for her 18th birthday this July. So I guess I’ll buy her a spanking new Lumix GF3.

  • Super 8: Unrevealed Mysteries and Questions in Mind

    Super 8: Unrevealed Mysteries and Questions in Mind

    JJ Abrams proved once again that he’s the master of thriller and science fiction movies and TV shows. I’m a big fan of Lost, and I’m a big fan of JJ Abrams. Just like Lost, JJ Abrams left the viewers hanging of many mysteries that are not unveiled in his latest science fiction movie Super 8.

    After watching the said film, I still have a lot of unanswered questions regarding the series of events and the reason why this and that happened. Here are some questions that I still can’t answer until now. I’ll try to watch the movie again and connect the dots so that I can answer these questions myself. I think somewhere in the movie, the answers to this questions are revealed. Or somewhere in the teaser posters or the previous trailer.
