Adding the Titles of Videos to Embedded YouTube Videos

Installing Firefox’s DOM Inspector After Not Installing It Initially

After receiving my computer back after having it serviced, I needed to download and install the applications that I use.

Facilitating the Analysis of Data Sent Via Web Forms

After writing three consecutive entries here about Greasemonkey’s past and present security issues, I wanted to write about a different topic.

An Update to a Script That I May Not Be Trusted to Update

It was not long ago that I discovered that a number of Greasemonkey scripts that are designed to work with Gmail needed to be updated to work properly again after a few changes were made to Gmail’s code. And it was once I was once again able to access a web browser with Greasemonkey installed on it […]

Problems with Tabbed Web Browsing (And How I Wish I Could Experience Them Now)

As I continue do the work that I would do with this blog without the ability to use my own personal computer, I continue to look for work to do once I am able to use my computer once again. I have spent the more limited time in which I have been able to access […]

And it is not writer’s block, or anything else related to anything that tends to be be addressed by those who give tips about blogging.
