It was getting tedious, even with my own multi-site bookmarklet tool, to load web sites I have scanned into both furl and del.icio.us— especially as Firefox seemed to 60% of the time lose track of the Furl content. It’s nothing wrong with Furl, I like the service, and it has most of the hooks I […]
Google is certainly sitting idly by while Yahooo ramps up its personal services. Check out the new Google personal home page, where you can select from a number of RSS sources, or connect your own: This was a quick set up with some of my own feeds, important weather selections, and a few of the […]
AS an FYI, this blog, Feed2JS, and every other thing internet originating at Maricopa will be going offline Saturday July 30, from 7:00 Am to Noon (PST). They are needing to do major electrical upgrades to the main server room, and thus not only are web servers going down, so is email, phone, and internet […]
Holding back no barb, John Dvorak is a self proclaimed Creative Commons Humbug: Will someone explain to me the benefits of a trendy system developed by Professor Lawrence Lessig of Stanford?

And in white cables to match the pod. But what an even nicer surprise when […]
Today was time to knuckle down and get some work done. I am about 80% done moving an entire nested web site with connected database to a new server (this is going from a Linux running on a PC platform to our enterprise web server), and trying to get all the walls, roofs, and floors […]
Not yet available in any stores! iPod Flea commercial I’m working now in a FleaCast. (Another fine Kotke remaidered link)
Wow, wow, and wow… I am very tempted to ponying up some paypal dough for Spam Karma 2, the powerful plugin for Word Press 2. It assigns incoming comments and trackbacks a karma value, based on your moderation habits, content in the comment, remote blacklists, and more. There is a raft of options for you […]
I really need to stop finding cool stuff and get some work done! But I could not pass on the Flickr Postcard Browser which takes any flickr tags and presents a view like a collection of photos laid out on the table, e.g. hitting some of my own on the tags “strawberry flower” for flower […]
