Some obsessions are healthy. That’s what we re-assure ourselves. Thanks of course to the King of the Blog Jim Groom for posting today a photo to jump started this post. If you are confused, well, better just stay that way. But Jim shows the ds106 call sign but noting where it lives in the world. […]
Among the best reasons to own your own domain and host a web site is to be able experiment, acts that are verboten on your easy, slick, hosted spiffy site. I will take tinker-ability over ease any minute of the day. If you are unaware of the Small Web, maybe just stay that way. You […]
Sometimes I spot things in my information flows that just feels like I have something akin to spidey sense, not the sensation of danger, but the sensation of, let’s call it “web woah.” I claim no accuracy nor super power (c.g. relevance). I felt that when I read a post by Terry Godier about his […]
Hello and greetings as far as one could be from the hub of Being Relevant. It is blissfully calm here, away from the bright lights of LinkedIn and its burdens of reposting liked comments. I am so out of the latest news on Blue Sky, how can I breathe? I also am free of having […]
So many times I was at the 33rd Street in Baltimore to watch sports at Memorial Stadium and no one told me it was The World’s Largest Outdoor Insane Asylum. Fitting, the inmates never know. The structure I knew is gone; I never knew it was first called “Venable Stadium.” Apparently in this very englightening […]
On Saturday morning I was stuck getting a machine to work. For a change this was not a web thing, it was a real machine. A few years ago, we bought a Champion Semi-Trash Water Pump but I had never used it. With the lack of snow, our front slough (a pond) is really low, […]
“Raildog is the Ansr” but the question is how the heck did I end up following a curiosity trail where logic and the dull stasticical parroting of GenAI leaves a mind wanting? I blame / credit Jim Groom. He posted today of his pleasure in the saner mode of travel. It got me thinking to […]
This is prefacing statemen , Doug! I am not criticizing you, I think the world of you. I’ve read Doug Belshaw’s writings for longer than I can pinpoint, blogs, articles, papers, tweets (what are they?). I continue to read regularly what flows in from the RSS feed of his newly redone Ghost-ified blog which has […]
Oh no, yet another tirade on attribution, or lack there of, of open licensed media. Isn’t this post a repeat episode? Something about Always Be Attributing? But as they never say in tinseltown, “inspired by real non attributed images.” I saw a Mastodon post linking to the Why Join W3C page for the W3 Consortium. […]
How about a break in the blog action for some old school WordPress Tech mumbo jumbo? I did not hear any complaints. RSS is always on the plate here, so there’s a connection. Long ago in a web not so far away, I built this thing called Feed2JS (web site no more, but an aging […]
