yahoo updating messenger service?

It was for some time that “Google Blog search” did not work search well. Yesterday they announced some updates to the service. Now there is some time that I have problems with Yahoo! messenger. At first thought it was with my connections or client, or something local. But when my friend Pooya said his sign-on process took too long, I got interested. There are some reports in Yahoo! answers as well. Is Yahoo! going to announce something about their messenger in the coming weeks?

To be more precise about these problems, I see people online though they are not. People, including myself, remain online after signing out. I have tried going invisible first, but no success. Also the stealth functionality does not work.

PHP stops suddenly on FreeBSD after restart

If you are a happy sysadmin of a FreeBSD machine with apache+php installed, watch out these days! After the new PHP 5.1.4 update last week, one of the servers was not restarted. When it was, Apache kindly served PHP as plain text!

Fortunately, Babak was around to “make config” apache and make world a better place to live.

I found a forum thread with more details here.
