Taking place in Los Angeles starting July 10, 2004, SENT brings perhaps your cheesy phone camera snapshots to a level of fine art? Images will be invited to be submitted by the public.
It looks like it may be too let to send your phone snaps, but stay tuned to see the results.
SENT will be [...]

Our NMC 2004 Small Pieces session intended to make a case for creating effective net-based collaboration using a discrete set of free tools, not so tightly controlled. This was fine, fun, and (frilly), but I wanted to describe here how we are trying to implement this for some real work.
We are headed into the 18th [...]

Crikies!
We just got around to setting up AWstats for our “Jade” server that runs our blogs as well as the Feed2JS contraption.
For just a week of running, in the middle of a hot and slow summer, we see:

561,000 hits (42k per day)
99,000 unique visitors (11k per day)

This started when I proposed to the Charles Ansorge, the current maintainer of the TLTGroup’s “Low Threshold Applications of the Week” [...]

I just cleaned up a bug in a golden oldie web site, and it is playing music again. The Interactive FlipSite was created so long ago I cannot remember exactly for sure, at least before 1998. The purpose was to create a site to illustrate simple probability for basic mathematics using the most simple of [...]

Browsing sites registering as users of Feed2JS I discovered this morning that there is now a feed to provide updates on the Cocktail of the Week.
Who would know there was such a thing?
Apparently David Berghouse has been publishing this site from Australia since 1995, quite a nice stretch! Good on ya!
FYI, the recipe this [...]
