Everything that does not have a home, just a big old stinking pile of posts.

A D- For Twitter Interface Design

A D- For Twitter Interface Design posted 11 Jan ’08, 8.29am MST PST on flickr I challenge anyone to convince me they can regularly use this drop down menu in twitter to send direct messages. Try it yourself. This interface item contains all of the people I follow, but it is presented in some random […]

Meeting Cole

Finally Get to Meet Cole posted 9 Jan ’08, 8.52pm MST PST on flickr I’ve "known" Cole Camplese for a number of years, though we had yet to meet… He came to speak at Maricopa last May, and wouldn’t you know it, the same week i was at University of Mary Washington. So our "knowing" […]

Blog Danger Code Level Yellow

Blog Danger Code Level Yellow posted 6 Jan ’08, 10.31am MST PST on flickr Word choice on CogDogBlog has earned me a code yellow, Elevated: Tom Cruise might ask me for spare change. The Airbag Blog Advisory System was just quirky enough I had to take time and try. In these dark times you can […]

2008/366 SlideFlickred; Me, Y’all Too

Thanks to the precedent setting and helpful nudge of D’Arcy Norman (who did this last year), in 2008, I am pledging myself to take and post to flickr every day a photo that best captures what I as doing, or at least what I photographed that day.

I went to ccMixter, a fab source for free music, where I rummaged a bit and chose this electronic remix: jaspertine lab sound 3.

Hoosgot… Lazyweb 2.0? Cool Concept!

Unblanking the Page

Blank Page posted 12 Feb ’07, 12.18pm MST PST on flickr Mmm … what shall I create today? It’s probably not healthy that I awoke this morning, still shaking off the dream state, thinking I was writing a blog entry. Why dream about writing blog posts? Why not red sports cars, standing on mountains, that […]

Spam in a GMail Ocean

Even with a slew of slaughtered email spam and just about every message I have gotten for several years, my use of GMail’s space hovers around 0%: Some of this is likely because they quietly just upped everyone’s quote to 6 Megabytes, a whole lotta space indeed. The again Google is out there harvesting all […]
