Have you always wondered what font is used in the twitter logo?  This information can be useful if say, you are trying to create your own take on the logo (as I am).

Well, a little bit of searching and I found it!  The name of the font used in the twitter logo is “Pico-alphabet” and here is the link to the site where you can downlad that font for free:

Pico – Alphabet

I was working on my mom’s Wordpress blog tonight and came up with a custom logo in Photoshop.  I figured out how to insert it without a problem, but was struggling with a good way to make it “clickable” and hyperlink it to the blog’s homepage.  That is until I found this lively link:

Make your logo clickable | Wwohn.com

And I quote:

If you cannot find the <img> the logo is probably the background image of a <div> or <td>. this would mean that you should make the entire <div> or <td> clickable.

You can make a <div> clickable with the following line of code:

<div onclick="location.href='http://www.yourwebsite.com/';" style="cursor: pointer;"></div>

You can make a <td> clickable with the following line of code:

<td onclick="location.href='http://www.yourwebsite.com/';" style="cursor: pointer;"></td>

In the examples above, pointer of the mouse changes if the mouse hovers the <div> or <td>. This provides visitors an indication that the area they are hovering is clickable.

How do I Flush DNS?

Most DNS clients cache the results of name resolution requests. This speeds up name resolution if multiple lookups are done to the same address, such as is common when browsing the web.

Sometimes a bad DNS entry will be cached and you will need to either flush the DNS cache to get rid of it, or wait up to 24 hours for it to be dropped from the cache automatically.

In Microsoft Windows, you can use the command ipconfig /flushdns to flush the DNS resolver cache:
