Oy! Traffic Cops

Mon, 18 Jun 2007 09:32:00 -0400

I just discovered a show called Traffic Cops that airs on BBC One/UKTV People. It’s essentially the British version of “Cops” with less trash.

The British police look pretty spiffy in their uniforms and Volvos.

HTTP Referer

I was writing a WordPress plugin earlier today and noticed an inconsistency in spelling while referencing other plugins..

Wikipedia on Referrer: “Referer is a common misspelling of the word referrer. It is so common, in fact, that it made it into the official specification of HTTP – the communication protocol of the World Wide Web – and has therefore become the standard industry spelling when discussing HTTP referers.”

Use a spell checker next time, asshole.
