Python vraagje: proxy gebruiken

Gezocht: Onderstaand gedeelte moet gebruik gaan maken van een proxy (IP adres en Port) maar wat ik ook probeer, ik krijg alleen maar een negatieve response terug. Dus ergens gaat er wat mis als ik er een ProxyHandler erbij wil voegen. Iemand een idee?

self.req = None
self.req = urllib2.Request(url)
self.req.add_header(“User-agent”, programma.USERAGENT)
self.connect()

elif autosub.Helpers.checkAPICalls(use=True):
self.req = None
self.req = urllib2.Request(url)
self.req.add_header(“User-agent”, programma.USERAGENT)
self.connect()

else:
log.error(“API: out of api calls”)

def connect(self):
import socket
socket.setdefaulttimeout(programma.TIMEOUT)
self.resp = urllib2.urlopen(self.req)
time.sleep(5) #Max 2 connections each second

Google Currents

Verschrikkelijk laat. Dat zijn de enige 2 woorden die ik kan gebruiken als een ‘Publisher’ van weblog content die nog steeds een weblog bijhoud. Ik heb vandaag (pas) Google Currents geinstalleerd en met Google Producer ervoor gezorgd dat de content van deze site wordt gepubliceerd.

WP 3.5 and PHP Warning: Missing argument 2 for wpdb::prepare()

The guys of WordPress is making wordpress plugin developers aware that their plugins are not safe .. so they made a choice to show people an issue with the plugin on the homepage

Psst: We are still blogging !!

Wow .. just looked at Archive.org they archived AroundMyRoom since 2001 and WAUW .. every single entry I still have. Blogging more than 11 years and still keep blogging about things I enjoy.

Yesterday I installed Windows 8. And I am using it now .. Started in the IT when MS-DOS was exchanged for Windows 3.11 and where Windows 95 was a huge turn in how a PC was being used. Now with Windows 8 Microsoft tries it again. A totally different approach than before. I have to get used to that .. Change .. Change

I wonder how long I will keep on blogging. After 11 years the updates are not that much anymore, but hey, we do have Facebook now, we do have Twitter (did you know I do archive all my tweets myself and is part of this weblog !) and many other social things like Foursquare ..

Keep tracking this website, nice things are going to happen. Especially as I am watching Shark Tank now ;-)
