OS X DNS lookup issues

I've been having DNS lookup issues like some other OS X users. Basically, the first time I'd hit certain sites, the DNS lookup would fail. The next time I'd try to hit the site, the DNS lookup wouldn't fail and the site would load. This was extremely frustrating. I can't say when it started. Maybe it was around the update to 10.3.6, maybe it was sooner.

However, explicitly adding the name servers for my ISP into the Airport Extreme settings in addition to the name servers setting in System Preferences | Network seems to have made the issue go bye-bye.

Here's hoping the forthcoming 10.3.7 fixes this issue once and for all.

blojsom localization effort update

Here's a quick update on the blojsom localization effort. In addition to German and Korean, someone volunteered to do the French localization. I also received an e-mail that someone was willing to do the Simplified Chinese localization. Except they're not on the blojsom-users mailing list and so are not able to get the messages resource file. Here is the resource bundle. Who will be next?

Here's a capture of part of the blojsom interface in Korean.

blojsom.
