I’ve had the thousandth aha moment. I found someone’s password. Again! Having seen this cockiness of “it can’t happen to me” for such a long time; Time and again proves just one of the two things – Either people believe they are invincible and do not really care or they just do not know how to generate strong random passwords that can be easily remembered.

I’d give my secret recipe for generating passwords; Passwords that can be written in full public view, will never need to be written down, can be remembered for as long as you’re alive (and mentally sound), cannot be broken by your friends or relatives and passwords that are unique to every place you need them. For the record, my Bank of the West password is “Amazing Amazing West of 2005!” Go figure!

This was bound to happen. But it didn’t have to. For an open source framework like DotNetNuke, so powerful and widely adopted, yet blogging or even publishing an article was an after-thought. In the OpenSource world they say, “The product has to be absolutely top-notch to succeed” and yet instead of harnessing and shoring up on the success of DNN, the Blog module stands there, lackluster in every sense, reeking of neglect, derelict, unending wait  except for the oohs and aahs of what’s about to come in the next version.

“We hates it.” “We loves it.” No. I think “we mostly hates it.” I’m so jealous of all the bloggers around me that I decided to put down my own list of top 10 must have features for DNN Blog. Bear with me, while I list down features that you have already been using for years, at LiveJournal, Wordpress, Typepad or the likes and I haven’t been. And I sure hope I can get to use some of these, at least.

Ok, I admit I didn’t see this one coming. What seemed like a harmless looking challenge turned into a long drawn out, 45 minutes plus of a total time waste. First thing in the morning!

Well, at least I have a much better I.Q than Dr. Einstein here. Don’t tell me you fell for the scam!
