Google Acquires Measuremap | Comments (1)

Posted in Tech on 15th February 2006, 10:55 pm by Stuart

Yet another aquisition, Google has snapped up MeasureMap. For those of you that don’t already know Measure Map is a web based stats package which is aimed at bloggers. It specifically tracks how much attention your blog is getting in terms of vistors, links and comments. This is an interesting aquisition for Google, not so long ago launched Google Analytics, their own stats service based on Urchin. I wonder if some of MeasureMap’s feature set will be absorbed into Google Analytics or vice versa. Only time will tell.

GNU screen: open tab in current working directory|(1)

A nice trick for having screen open a new tab in the same directory as the one you’re currently in. To use it add it to your .screenrc

# Open new window in current dir.
bind c stuff "screen -X chdir \$PWD;screen^M"
bind ^c stuff "screen -X chdir \$PWD;screen^M"

Ubuntu: add-apt-repository: command not found|(2)

When you’re using a minimal Ubuntu install if you find the ‘add-apt-repository’ command is missing (it’s useful for adding PPAs and other repositories), then simply run:

sudo apt-get install python-software-properties
