If they can keep the servers alive, I believe they probably will set a record.  Despite all this excitement about breaking a record, these numbers really have a lot [...]]]></description>

I&#8217;ll go over how to convert from database date formats to traditional date formats and back again, as well as how to test a date using regular expression matching&#8230;

		<description><![CDATA[Sometimes the best way to view things is in a tree shape, and your website is no exception.

For a nice tree view showing file sizes and links to the actual files, edit your crontab:

crontab -e

Add this line into cron:

0 * * * * /usr/bin/tree -C -s -D -H http://www.yourdomain.com
/address/of/your/web/root/ &#62; /somewhere/tree.html

This will run every hour [...]]]></description>

If you are testing without a steady stream of incoming data, you may need to generate your own UDP packets to send to your socket server.  Here&#8217;s a simple script to open [...]]]></description>

It also includes coloring for vegetation, and names of mountains, hills, and the like.  So go do some exploring!
