Today, I have put together a small local homepage on my powerbook, where I point people to different ways of getting in touch with me. I also wrote an AppleScript to produce information about what I am currently playing, and what I have played recently in iTunes (inspired by Tom Coates’ sidebar).
I have been annoyed that the homepages of the computer and all users are advertised over Rendezvous, but today I found out how to fix it. Now my /etc/httpd/httpd.conf reads:
<IfModule mod_rendezvous_apple.c>
RegisterUserSite "peter"
</IfModule>
This way, only “Peter Lindberg’s Web Site” is listed under Rendezvous in Safari.
I use iChatStatus and a custom AppleScript that generates a file which I include using server-side include. It contains the same information as on Tom Coates’ site.
