I installed WordPress 2.0 tonight. I have no idea why…but it’s new..so I did it. I’m not really thrilled with the WordPress upgrade process, but then again the program is free and it’s not like I’m making it better. Still it seems rather error prone…not that I’ve had a problem yet – knock on wood. […] ↓ Read the rest of this entry…
In the Syndicate section on the side bar I’ve added a Protopage link. I’ve just learned about Protopage recently and basically it’s an AJAX home page/personal portal. It’s pretty neat. I tend to try various home page portals for a little while and then get bored and set my start page back to Google, but […] ↓ Read the rest of this entry…
I bought my Series 2 Tivo because I was interested in the Tivo Online Services package. So far this has proven to be a bit underwhelming – the streaming podcasts seems to defeat the point for me, along with the lack of a directory, and somewhat kludgey integreation with Yahoo’s Internet content. On the other […] ↓ Read the rest of this entry…
Cool Hunting has launched a vidcast. Let’s all be sure to subscribe.
Is it just me, or does Firefox 1.5 crash a lot more than previous versions? I’ve disabled a bunch of extensions, but I still find that the app crashes on average at least twice a day. Somewhat frustrating, but I don’t think it’ s a good idea to downgrade versions. Perhaps I’ll look into Flock, […] ↓ Read the rest of this entry…

It’s not completely off, as one or two emails are marked spam but the vast majority of spam is just getting dumped into my inbox. Historically GMail has been pretty good at filtering most of the spam so […] ↓ Read the rest of this entry…
As anyone who reads this web site knows, a while back we started up shownotes.info as a resource for podcasters and vidcasters to keep their program “show notes” in a community editable way. The main user of this site has been Adam Curry with his Daily Source Code production. The way this has worked is […] ↓ Read the rest of this entry…
I purchased a Tivo the other day. We already had a Tivo in the house – my roomate has an old Series 1 model. I was feeling left out, however, in the wake of the recent Tivo Online Services announcements. So I went out and got a Series 2. I’ve signed up for the Online […] ↓ Read the rest of this entry…
Yahoo! has acquired the social bookmarking site del.icio.us. I must confess that I am not a big del.icio.us user myself, although I do have an account. However it’s noteworthy and probably will miss the “mainstream” press, so I thought I’d mention it here. I keep my social bookmarks primarily in furl, although I do like […] ↓ Read the rest of this entry…
So I’m not much for goth clubs, in general, but I just happened to go to The Birthday Massacre’s web site today to find their management contact info, and lo and behold apparently they are going to be at Alchemy at Nation in DC on December 29. I may very well have to go to […] ↓ Read the rest of this entry…
