It's nice to know I'm so predictable.

I'm trying to get Tiny Tiny RSS installed on my webspace, on the grounds that it's self-hosted, and thus not vulnerable to the whims of capricious companies.

And I bump into some oddness around PHP, so the obvious first step is to ensure I have the correct version installed. A quick google tells me that putting a one-liner into a file and sticking it on the server will give me that information.

So I save it into a file called "info.php" and drop it in a folder, hit the upload button on my webspace's file browser, and it tells me that I already have a file called info.php. From 2008. Which turns out to have exactly that one line blob in it.

I assume that I was installing something back then (possibly RoundCube, when I was looking into better email front ends, before I migrated the backing store for ducker.org.uk to GMail) and needed to check exactly the same thing. And had the same thought process.

It appears to have been dumped, but before DW launched we were looking at and messing around with
http://sourceforge.net/projects/gregarius/files/

I had it installed on my old webspace but that was lost when I let it lapsed. I don't get on with Reader or anything like that, all my feeds are on DW these days and I don't have huge numbers of them. But if Tiny Tiny does the job, y'know, g'luck. And yeah, I can remmber doing that sort of thing as well.

Let me know how Tiny Tiny works out - I was considering setting something up on my domain for my friends to use, although haven't done any research into the idea yet.
