Introducing LockMyStuff.com
LockMyStuff.com is a free online encryption service. It allows users to encrypt their text or files using a strong encryption algorithm. The text or files can then be decrypted using the created password. This is handy when you need to securely send sensitive data over unsecure channels. The site also supports storing the text on the server, which allows logging and restricting of access.
The project was started for no particular reason, but now it simply serves as a free online tool as well as way to gain exposure for UltraMega Tech. It was also a good way to practice working with Linux, PHP, MySQL, and AJAX all together in a single application. The site is expected to improve as my skills improve, or as time allows.
More about the internal workings of the site. It is powered by PHP with the MCrypt library. The MCrypt PHP module is used for text encryption and file encryption uses the MCrypt library directly via the system command line. For more details, visit the About page.
About This Blog (WordPress)
Welcome to the UltraMega weblog, where various Web development related topics will be explored. This also includes insight to the various projects I work on. I hope to provide some useful information to the Internet community.
This blog is powered by WordPress, a very popular and powerful blogging platform. This is a fairly standard installation, with a modified template and some plugins for added functionality. One of the best thing about WP is its flexibility and strong plugin-writing community. There are virtually unlimited possibilities with what can be done with this free open source software! Everything is also so easy to install that anyone with an FTP client can do it.
Some examples of plugins that I have deployed here include: the All in One SEO Pack, which makes it easier for search engines to properly index the site; WP-Codebox, providing code syntax highlighting which is helpful for programming tutorials; Collapsible Archive Widget, which you can see on the right; and the Multi-page Toolkit, allowing pagination in posts. More may be added as needed.
If you are interested in having your own WordPress blog but have no Web hosting, check out WordPress.com, where you can get a free hosted blog.
Welcome to the UltraMega Blog
This is the future home to the official UltraMega blog. This is where you will find information about various projects and web design in general. There is still a lot of work that needs to be done to the layout and content, so stay tuned.
Edit: Everything is coming together nicely. I should have the first real post up soon...
