Read on for a quick tutorial on how to generate an SSH pubkey using Mac OS X. This should work for just about any version of Mac OS X and be useful to create public keys for services like Codebase.

Below is a small snippet to add above the closing body tag in your CP theme footer that will enable the top navigation menus to drop down on rollover instead of click. It's nothing fancy, but figured I should share in case someone else was annoyed at the default top navigation menu behavior.

I originally wrote an extension to do this, only to find that they've stripped out show_full_control_panel_end out of the hooks list for EE2 after I finished whipping it up. I guess we'll have to live with modifying the CP themes directly for changes like this from now on.

To get the flickr sidebar working on my site, I had to update Solspace's excellent Flickr Tools plugin to work with EE2. I tweeted at them earlier this morning asking if it'd be okay to share, so hopefully I'll be able to post it here after I've heard back from them.
