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.

Flickr Drops the Hammer on Spammer

One of my “dogs only” rss feed in my Reader is a watch on my comments in flickr (there is an RSS feed for yourself at http://www.flickr.com/recent_activity.gne?days=2).

Pulling AdSense from a Plain Domain
This falls into the category of “curiosities raised from idle web wandering”. I just noticed after not looking at it for a while at how much stuff (or crud or crap) I have running down the sidebar of this blog. Its stuff I pretty much ignore, as likely do others. I do get some self […]

Pack the Moose!
Moose Mugshot posted 30 May ’07, 4.18pm MDT PST on flickr We just spent a week camping up at Algonquin. It was wonderful, such a gorgeous wilderness and what wildlife! Woo hoo!

Feed2JS Posts Personal Ad – Single, Lonely Open Source Software Seeks Eager PHP/RSS Coders

Last week I was at an NMC Board meeting, hosted at a very special location in Cupertino, and was oh, so overwrought with jealousy as colleagues pawed, swashed, swooshed with their shiny new iPhones. And I would be among the cool kids– if were it not for the utterly ridiculous lock AT&T has on being […]
