Google released a new code search engine the other day.
This got me thinking of things it may index. Since I have recently started using drupal I crafted a URL to test if I could find out usernames and passwords to the main database.
Guess what I can!
Oh, looks like WordPress is no better
Let’s try Wikimedia. Hmm no better…
Let’s not just pick on PHP, how about DotNet? Guess so!
EDIT: Let’s not forget about Joomla, PHPNuke, or XOOPS
Looks like it only affects the zip and tarball files uploaded to the server for the most part but I wonder how many people out there back up their site in this manner?
I’m guessing we are about to see some major holes via this new service…
Webmasters, start your backups…

I’ve noticed that once you get older you get pickier, which seems unlikely because you think you would be more easy going but that is not the case.
I have some friends in their thirties that are single, and in my opinion probably will be for awhile.
Why? Because they are so picky. One of them, a girl, told me she broke up with a guy after a few dates because she didn’t like the way he coughed. Another guy because the way he laughed. Or he had to much money. Or too little.
I am just amazed at how picky one becomes when looking for a mate once you have passed that 30 year old mark.
Maybe it is just the product of being older and wiser. Or maybe you know life is too short to put up with someone else’s crap. Either way I guess it may be a win-win situation!
