Testing ReceiveLinks link exchange network

Posted in Search engines by tj on the July 21st, 2006

I previously tested LinkVault with little or no success. Now I’ve taken it upon myself to test ReceiveLinks. So far it’s looking pretty neat’o. It’s very easy to set up (very similar to LV) and easy to manage. The user interface is simple, not pretty, but effective. If you like you can test it out yourself. It’s free and if you sign up as a referral of mine, I’ll help you get started. (more…)

Joomla 1.5 database schema

Posted in Content management, Search engines by tj on the April 30th, 2006

Joomla 1.5 database schema, bigJoomla 1.5 beta is just around the corner now. Jinx has earlier stated that it would be released before may but we are yet to see if the core devs manage to keep their promise.

Click the thumbnail to the right to see the full sized schema.

Download Joomla 1.5 database diagram (From April 2006. XML-format, for use with FabFORCE DBDesigner4)

The diagram also has column info expanded, so that you can see the column types (varchar, integer, etc). This makes the schema a bit messy, but this is a feature you easily can turn on/off in DBDesigner to make it more readable again.
