Everything that does not have a home, just a big old stinking pile of posts.
I have an unwritten internal filter on the range of topics blogged here. For a personal venture I have taken up, to run a half marathon in January, I decided to set up as its own blog, on my own domain. So I won’t be really writing about it here- you can see the full […]
Shazam! Sit back and watch/listen to Brian Lamb’s first screen cast, “Beyond the Blog”, a whirlwind tour of weblogs, wikis, RSS, aggregators, flickr, social software, and more. Best quip, “Think of delicious as blogging without writing a weblog”. Awesome work, Brian, and your fans shall clamor for more.
flickr foto Shockwave Book Put To Workavailable on my flickr I was musing recently about long ago doing multimedia development for the web using Macromedia Director and Shockwave as the playback engine in the browser… and I recalled that I am still using on the classic books. Darrel Plant’s Shockwave: Breathe New Life into Your […]
A year ago there were none but now there are a good handful of sites that allow you to mix in a collection of disparate RSS feed URLs, and it mixes them into a new one, with its own RSS feed. I refer these frequently to folks that write me about Feed2JS asking if it […]
As the tawdry saying goes… “I Like to watch” It’s not what your dirty minds think… I was one of more than 100 people watching LiveMarks, a near real time window of the input to the social bookmarking pile called del.icio.us: LiveMarks is a project to show del.icio.us bookmarks live. On the left of LiveMarks […]

My wife called yesterday and said through her work we could have front row seats for the opening of Dave Gorman’s Googlewhack Adventure. I’m sworn to secrecy about not giving away the plot, but I laughed so hard my […]
Harriet’s blog is pink, peppy, and personal. Is it “real” (and what is “real”?)
flickr foto New Bottom Partsavailable on my flickr My 2002 vintage iBook finally got home from a month’s vacation to Apple’s repair resort in Tennesse. In addition to a logic board replacement, they replaced the bottom case (the white new battery replaced a few months ago is still shinier) and a new optical drive (if […]
Sign of the times- Just noticed that a new setting available for Blogger hosted blogs you can add a “word verification” or captcha entry field for comments… one of those randomly generated graphics of scrambled letters that a human must enter to add a comment to a blog. This is intended to cut down automated […]
For some unknown reason, I was cleaning up my browser bookmark tools. I cannot even remember where I found this, but I had forgotten about one that grabs images from any web page in view, and allows you to then upload any of them to your own flickr account. Going beyond the knee jerk fear/reaction […]
