I’ve been using email, I think since my undergrad days at University of Delaware, maybe 1981 or 1982.. I know for sure I had a BITNET email at Arizona State when I got there in ’87. E-mail, spam, the sheer volume of junk is a pain, but ot one I can yet say I am […]
Talking About Machinima posted 12 Aug ’07, 11.49pm MDT PST on flickr NMC Symposium on Creativity in Second Life, Aug 12-18, 2007 I know folks are rather polarized in terms of being wildly excited about Second Life or being totally dismissive of it.

Ah, my poor RSS Reader, not nearly given the devoted attention once reserved for it. Maybe a year, maybe two ago, I’d focus on at least scanning all my sources and marking them read by end of the day, even if it was in one fell keyboard stroke. That was BT (Before Twitter), BSL (Before […]

Enough already of insanely more, ever expanding facebook apps. Will the web soon implode from some unexpected infinitely recursive facebooking? Here is my new facebook app DogPeeBook – D-friend is for pretty littles kitties. This Big Dog App will drop a hideous, smelly yellow stain on the profile page every person who takes you off […]

No, I will not follow this crud on twitter: That is a quick delete. In a few days I predict invites bearing glorious news like: Texas Holdem Galore (txpokerscum) is now following your updates on Twitter.. ViagraPropeciaCialis (thebluepill) is now following your updates on Twitter… NastyAnimalSex (dontclickhere) is now following your updates on Twitter… Hughs […]
