Getting the NIC’s MAC address:
ifconfig ethx | awk '/HWaddr/ {print $5}'

Subscribe to the Pinoy Farmers’ Internet’s news feeds, brought to you by IceRocket Free RSS Builder.
Update: The IceRocket RSS is deprecated for a new feed, coming soon directly from the PFI.
Trying out IceRocket, where “every search is a direct hit.” Or so it says.
It is primarily a blog search engine, relying mostly on feeds and syndication to crawl contents in the blogosphere. It offers other search services as well: for web pages, images, news, even phone pics and multimedia.
What I like about it is that it provides other services such as showing blog trends (good for getting metrics on *hot* blog topics), an RSS builder (a poor man’s syndication) and tagging ala-Technorati.
I haven’t compared its hits with that of, say, Google blog search or Technorati.

Following 43 Folders’ advice on having a personal status page, I created one at PeanutButterWiki.
Update: I’ve since moved my wiki to my Metawire account. (I’ll still be using PBWiki. ;)) I’ve also put up a status page here in my new blog.
