[»] The End of APB
by Roderick Montgomery - Oct 31st 2003 10:43:34

L. Brandon Stone, the original author of APB, has decided to move on to other projects and has given his blessing to a code branch under a new name. Interested PHP developers are welcome to visit the old message board for info on the new project developing from what remains of APB.

[»] just a reminder
by jeff - Apr 1st 2003 23:04:20

this is common sense, howerver: if you follow the upgrade instructions in the README.txt, DON'T FORGET to either backup your apb.php or remember what your settings were...

you'll be much happier that way ;)

[»] Totally Unsecure
by Herbert - Mar 13th 2003 10:34:26

Hi,

DO NOT USE THIS SOFTWARE!!! Someone hacked my website, starting by this software. It used the register_globals 'bug' to include a remote PHP and install a bindshell software on my server!

Only use this software if the author stop using globals.

    I was first made aware of this security issue a few days ago (on Sunday, March 9th, 2003) and that day I promptly updated the APB homepage and the "version check" page with warnings. I also removed the TAR/GZ and ZIP files as an added measure.

    I am currently working on a patch that I hope to release in the next couple of days. I will also be working on a new APB release which will be more compatible with the latest versions of PHP and will work with "register globals" turned off.

    Thank you to those who have pointed out this issue. I'm doing what I can to fix it.

[»] The best
by Evan - Mar 8th 2003 17:45:21

Easy to use, powerful, simple to install. Need I say more? I love being able to access my bookmarks from any computer anywhere. The search function is especially useful once you start adding a lot of links. It is nice to research things at work, bookmark them, and then rediscover them easily on the weekend. Great geek tool. =]

    > Warning: Failed opening...

    Hey Julius,

    The Freshmeat comments area isn't the best place to handle support requests. I noticed that you posted the same error in the comment form on the APB website, but you didn't give us your email address. If you give us a way to contact you, we'll try to help you out.

[»] Very Cool
by chad davis - Feb 1st 2002 18:46:45

I'd been looking forward to the release of this system for a while... got my hands on it and I was able to integrate it into my site without any problems (and quite a few design changes) pretty quickly. Highly recommended.

[»] This is the most important piece of software on my personal website.
by Nathanial Hendler - Jan 30th 2002 17:57:10

I have to admit that I'm a contributor to this project, but I'm also a user...

You can see the main piece of software installed on my site here, but you can also see it heavily integrated into my homepage. Here's another interesting use of apb, it's my bookmark diary/statistics view

Having all of my bookmarks well organized, and having a powerful search makes my life as a web user much nicer.

    [»] I agree a handy tool.
    by Matt Berg - Jan 31st 2002 14:01:56

    I've been beta-testing Brandon and Nathan's product since they started working on it. Since then I've collected over 2,000+ bookmarks and their app has become my browser's home page. I found it very easy to configure with the rest of my site. Furthermore, the data collected itself allows for the creation of some nifty little display modules. I, for example, like to display recently added and visited links on the front page of my site, which insures that repeat visitors get something new to look at.

    Nice work on the release. I especially love the recently added search function which makes my past couple of months of browsing instantly accessible, and lastly the tight integration with the bookmarklet which removes the pain of bookmarking sites.

    Matt
