Installing FriendFeed's Tornado Web Server in Snow Leopard
In the process of checking out FriendFeed’s newly open sourced Tornado Web Server, I came across a problem when trying to install its prerequisites.
Running this line, fails with an “array size” error when trying to install pycurl:
sudo easy_install setuptools pycurl==7.16.2.1 simplejson
I installed setuptools and simplejson individually to make sure they were OK:
sudo easy_install setuptools
sudo easy_install simplejson
To install pycurl, simple pass the architecture build flag as follows:
sudo env ARCHFLAGS="-arch i386" easy_install pycurl
Note that is was on a 32bit Intel Mac. You may need to set arch to x86_64 for 64bit Intel Macs.
Send blog posts from Google Reader to pinboard.
I use pinboard to store links and bookmark sites that I want to read later. Mostly though, I use it for the latter.
The following shows how to add a Send To option to Google Reader, so that you can send blog posts to pinboard’s read later list without ever leaving Google Reader.
- In Google Reader, go to Settings | Send To
- Click Create a custom link
- In the three fields shown, enter:
- Name: Pinboard to read later
- URL:
http://pinboard.in/add?later=yes&noui=yes&jump=close&url=${url}&title=${title} http://pinboard.in/favicon.ico- Finally, click Save
Then, as you’re reading your favourite blogs, send it to pinboard to read later via theSend To button.
Note: When you save a post to be read later, you’ll see a window momentarily popup and disappear as pinboard is doing its thing.

Windows Activation is truly lame. Check out this Windows ATM Error. The error dialog is saying that Windows has not been activated. (via Martin Eian)
