Identify Your Mac AirPort Extreme Chipset

Do the following: Go to "About This Mac" (top left under the Apple logo) Click "More Info..." Choose "AirPort" on the left-hand side (in the "Network" section) On the right-hand side look for "Card Type = AirPort Extreme" The "Firmware Version" underneath should indicate what chipset you have. E.g. "Broadcom BCM43xx"  Hopefully this will help you out. Maybe you want to know this because you're hoping to use Aircrack to do some WEP cracking :). This page lists compatible aircrack chipsets .

Make Your Blog Mobile-friendly!

This is a quick heads up for Blogger bloggers that may have missed it. Blogger now lets you easily switch on an option to present your mobile readers with a special mobile formatted version of your blog. If you've ever read stuff on a mobile device that's not formatted for mobile you'll know how annoying it can sometimes be navigating a non mobiel-friendly web site, even with mobile browsers like Opera doing a good job at solving that issue. To switch on the mobile template view in Blogger, just Go to your blog's "Settings" tab Click "Email & Mobile" Then where it says "Mobile Template (beta)" choose "Yes" and your done! You can hit the "Mobile Preview" button to see what your blog will look like too.
