Too late #1: WikiPete-ia

I'm up too late, but I have have three quick things I want to post. This is the first one:

You know what would be awfully useful for me? A wiki about me. So if I took an antibiotic, for example, I could note my reactions to it for later reference, if necessary. I could put down my opinions about the issues and personalities of the day. My healing time from injuries. That sort of thing.

Basically much of the same information I have here in my journal, but in easily-searchable wiki form. Just a thought.

Too late #2: Candidate

I've seen this question a number of times online lately, and finally took a shot at answering it. I'll hide my answer behind an lj-cut, so you can try to answer it first.

"What happens if a Presidential candidate dies after he's nominated but before the election?"

( My answer: )

Too late #3: Site infected

I installed the new Google Chrome browser a couple of days ago (the day it was released). As always, one of the first sites I checked was my own RuneQuest site; I wanted to see how it looked. And what do you think was the result?

Well, I kind of gave it away with the subject. Google blocked my site, and said it was infected with malware! I checked it out, and sure enough my index.html was infected with a script exploit. I cleaned it and replaced it. Then I found that index.php was infected too. I couldn't clean it, so I just deleted it. It doesn't seem to have affected the functioning of the site.

Unfortunately my site seems to have been added to a list of bad sites in the meantime. So not only is it blocked by Google Chrome (you have to check a box affirming that you know the site is infected if you want to see it in Chrome) but it's now blocked by my work, too!

I've requested a review by Google. I'm hoping I got all of the infection. I downloaded a fresh copy of everything on the site tonight (after making the fix and deleting the bad file) and ran a scan with AntiVir; everything came up clean.

And that's it. Good night!
