how to schedule tasks in a wordpress plugin

Does anyone here have any experience with encrypting user's personal data and storing it encrypted in the database ( MySQL) ? It has to be two way because the user ( once logged into the system ) must be able to see it and change it. The encryption key should not be stored anywhere in the system.
I was thinking I could store user's password encrypted ( one way ). and after login use the password that the user provides to encrypt/decrypt the sensitive data. But what do I do if the user forgets his password ?
- Mihai Secasiu
You can assign random password and use it as your private key. However, isn't this method is also keeping your key on the system?
- Özkan Altuner
I think you should not display the password to the user even if he has login to the system. The user must be able to change it, but no need of seeing it. If the user forgot the password, that's his fault and you are not required to display it back; instead you should ask him to pick a new password.

- Patrick Jordan
from BuddyFeed
Firefox has become just a huge problem for me. It's constantly crashing and can't keep up with my demands as a full-time blogger. Video playback becomes choppy within the first hour of using Firefox. It's become too much of a memory hog. Personally, I prefer the feel of Chrome over Firefox. Safari is fast, but I'm worried about plugin integration.
- Corvida
Ah, I don't run video as often as you maybe. I do run with usually 10-12 tabs open in Firefox and keep it open often for days on end without any performance issues - but I'm running it on a pretty nice little Intel MacBook with 4GB ...
- Patrick Jordan
Patrick I'm not far behind you at all on an HP Vista 3GBs. Mmm10-12 tabs would be a blessing for me :) I don't run video often either, but when I go into my feeds I may end up reading up to 10 articles with videos. I don't leave tabs open with certain media running either. I really have no idea what the problem is, but it's only gotten worse for me.
- Corvida
Derrick what didn't you like about Safari? and Mona are you using Safari?
- Corvida
Corvida - OK - your video usage is roughly same as mine then. I can say I did always have more issues with Firefox on Windows machines (typically laptops with 2-4GB of RAM) - usually it was processor usage spikes that brought things to a crawl for me. I remember getting rid of as many extensions / add-ons as possible to combat this - but it really never ran as great as it does on my Mac ...
- Patrick Jordan
The one thing that keeps me in Safari forever is that I rarely have to type more than the letter M to fill out a form. (Unless a site's security overrides the default behavior.) Basically, I type the letter M in the name or First Name field, hit Tab and the form is filled out in seconds! The best Firefox can do is let me choose a prefilled option for a single field and hit Tab to move...

I recently had some trouble with Firefox too. It was crashing and would take a very long time to shut down (i saw the spinning rainbow pinwheel of death quite often)... but I did an update and it seemed to help.
- Violet Mae Lim
Patrick, what version of Firefox are you using? Firefox 3.1 beta feels glacial on my MacBook compared to Safari.
- Victor Ganata
I have Firefox and Safari 4 beta both always running on my Mac, both are very stable for me, though FF slowly eats memory.
- Tinfoil 2.0
I've found that Firefox is far more stable on Windows than on the Mac. I'm guessing that there just aren't as many eyeballs on the Mac version. (The same thing happens to products such as Google Earth, where I found a memory leak one time just through casual use --- that got fixed pretty fast once I reported it though!)
- Piaw Na
I'd use Chrome before touching Safari. Firefox is fine with me.
- Rodfather
Firefox crashes so hard for me that it give me "Unexpectedly Quit" notices 2-at-a-time.
- Rob Michael (Atmos Trio)
This is odd. Nothing has changed for me at all. Even after 3.0.9. ..and I'm on a netbook.
- Rodfather
Victor - I'm on Version 3.0.9 (need to update to .10) but Firefox has been superb for me on the Mac in all the 3.x versions. Ive maybe had to force quit Firefox twice in say last 3 months, while Safari has hung up on me and required a force quit far more often, even though I tend to run it with far less tabs open.
- Patrick Jordan
Ah, I guess Safari used to hang on me all the time before, too, until I disabled Flash completely. To be fair, I haven't had any problems with Firefox. It just feels heavier for some reason.

Definitely YES. Unified when you want it is good. When you don't want it, it sucks. Either bring back the icons so you can scan for posts from a certain service or bring back the service filter buttons to eliminate all that you don't want or bring back BOTH so the user has control over their own environment in which to work. Having the small service icons go only TO the service source is a waste and takes you out of the FF environment.

"there’s nothing wrong with giving old people bigger pensions but don’t do it just to gain their votes and then take it back. Cause that’s what they are doing. They are taking money from other places to increase pensions right before elections then either they recalculate pensions to be lower or they manage everything so badly ( read steal ) after being elected that the economy goes so wrong and inflation grows so much that the pension growth equals zero or goes to negative."

I agree with Alister above....Twitter is a utility the way that FM radio is...it carries the convo, there should be no need to use twitter.com

Please stop with the "Dead" talk. Only attention monger bloggers use that type of language... ;)

Friendfeed is now Twitter on crack.

Agree with Robert. And Steve has a point about Tweetdeck.
- Roberto Bonini
it's crazy, if I don't at it for one minute everything goes away and other stuff shows up. maybe I just subscribe to too many people but I hate it when the text I'm reading moves on the screen

Bullshit Acai Berry Weightloss Blogs Under Fire From FTC - http://www.shoemoney.com/2009...
"So what does this mean? that FTC has something against affiliates ? Of course they have open investigations, that’s their job. You should worry if they wouldn’t have. And the problem with using an actor in a blog is that it helps to deceives people. They perceive a blog as a personal thing so they expect this to be authentic. Everybody knows most people in TV ads are actors, but when you see a personal blog on the internet most people expect the pictures to be of actual people that used the product not some actor or professional model And another problem with this Acay thing is a lot of affiliates are using spam to promote it."

Google Now Lets You Target Ads At Yourself - http://www.techcrunch.com/2009...
"facebook is doing something similar with their ads. They let you tell them if an ad you see is not relevant."

Blog 2.0 - http://capslock.ro/2009...
"comentariul ala cu pretectia consumatorului e foarte amuzant :) Platiti pentru hosting ( cu tot ceea ce insemna asta, support, banda, spatiu, etc ) nu pentru software si nici pentru setup care probabil e super automat “like one click away” Pana la urma daca ar fi sa anunti protectia consumatorului pe chestia asta probabil peste 80% din firmele de hosting ar fi in ilegalitate pentru ca folosesc Linux ( free ) :D Oricum serviciul nu mi se pare deloc targetat pentru cei care vor doar sa tina un jurnal personal. Daca vreau doar asta mult mai bine sa iau free de la wordpress.com, blogger sau altii."

AdSense ‘Force’ Expandable Ad Units on Some Publishers and Exclude Others - http://www.problogger.net/archive...
"Do the ads expand automatically or do I have to click them or mouse over for them to expand? I hate ads that expand automatically and cover some part of the text just like I hate those sites where you go and a video or sound starts playing automatically. It’s ok to be able to play with the ads ( if that’s your thing ) but it’s not ok to be required to click a “close” spot if you want to read th text bellow the ad."

To Smarty or not to Smarty? - http://www.mihaibrehar.ro/blog...
"Bun, constrangeri de timp inteleg mai bine decat constrangeri de template Sper sa mai fie si alt PHP GeekMeet si da poate se continua discutia la o bere … ar putea deveni de-a dreptul filozofica"

To Smarty or not to Smarty? - http://www.mihaibrehar.ro/blog...
"Daca e sa includ software extern in aplicatia mea trebuie sa-mi aduca un beneficiu real, vizibil pentru aplicatie. A instrui programatorul prin constrangeri chiar nu e un beneficiu. “nu are rost sa continuam discutia” ? what? pai atunci de ce mai ti comentarii deschise? Inteleg ca iti place smary si e ok asta, inteleg ca nu vrei sa convingi pe nimeni sa foloseasca si nici eu nu cred ca incerc sa conving pe cineva sa nu foloseasca dar credeam/speram ca discutia sa fie despre beneficiile de a folosi sau nu smarty sau un alt template engine ci nu despre ce ne place sau nu? Normal ca fiecare foloseste ce vrea dar cred ca toti vrem sa stim daca nu cumva e o cale mai buna ? si de ce e mai buna?"

To Smarty or not to Smarty? - http://www.mihaibrehar.ro/blog...
"@andrei total irelevant. Ce, fara smarty nu era la fel de bun (sau prost) ? Ce te face sa crezi ca flickr e ce e din cauza lui smarty? @Mihai Brehar - asa se fac aplicatii ineficiente pentru ca inloc sa conteze optimizarea conteaza disciplinarea programatorului. @ovidiugabriel - smart nu ofera mai mult flowcontrol decat php-ul. Daca ai nevoie de ceva care sa te constranga problema e altundeva. Designer-ul nu are ce urmari mai mult cu php inloc de smarty? Daca se simte amenintat cand vede inloc de {{ }} ia-ti alt designer"

Words of a Broken Mirror - http://wordsofabrokenmirror.com/2008...
"the problem is a lot of people use Linux for reason #1 … what they don’t realize is that as time passes and more and more start using it ( for the same reason ) the coolness and sexiness are starting to lose ground. Actually they have already started losing ground to more hard core systems ( so what’s next Free/Open/NetBSD ?) Mihai Secasius last blog post..This week on twitter 2009-01-18"
