Calendar information is just not as neatly boxed like Title, Link, & Description.
What I wanted is a web-based calendar tool (lots of them), that I could [...]

Right now the server running Feed2JS is down and out. I have only the most limited, around the corner and snake up a pole access, but the server is toasted until someone on their IT staff can go in the server room and hard start the server. It’s just a humble XServe getting yanked and [...]

I am about 99999.9% sure (always leave room for doubt) I will never be among the digerati sitting in the plush red seats for a TED conference. No dogs allowed, eh? However, I did, a few months ago, happen to be at a home of someone who has, and got to see watch on [...]

I’ve seen those little world maps on other blogs that show where people are visiting from.
Pffff, I may have said, what sidebar clutter fluff. Extra bandwidth ego churning.
