I am headed back to <font>…</font> and <blink>…</blink> tags (not). I am almost too embarrassed to admit this, but thanks to an email from Keith K, it was pointed out the CSS class names used by Feed2JS are not exactly W3C valid since they use underscores (e.g. .rss_box) and this may/will cause display problems in […]
The conversion is complete. With one line of text, I have preserved every old link, every RSS feed, under the former URL/host for this blog from the old cogdogblog.com/…. to the exact same links here at the new home at cogdogblog.com/…/. Oi, that also means the spam will come here too. And the poker folks […]
This past Friday was the largest event our office coordinates, Faculty Convocation 2006, held the first day of faculty accountability for Spring semester. We had 630 people pre-registered (online via our database system) plus well over 120 walk-in registrants. This has been a Maricopa event dating back to the era of chalk… I am not […]
For what its worth, I decided to give the Englaze Flickr Backup to DVD service a try. Ordering was pretty easy- pick one of the last 200 photos to be printed on the label (I chose my hammock perspective), enter a title, etc, and provide a credit card. I had a shade under 1000 photos, […]

[…]
Just randomly clicking the new feature links at the bottom of my flickr collection brought me to something I should get around top doing- getting a backup. Hey, what if Yahoo falls into the ocean? Englaze Archive will create a data DVD backup of your original flickr photos, the original uploaded sizes, and preserve titles […]
Maybe its resolution time. In this first burst of 2006 and more than a few big times bloggers are hanging out their “will blog for _______ signs” or going indy. In a long tangent to a post by Will Richardson on “Reinventing Ourselves, Stephen Downes lets loose his desire for a new venue. So long […]
Finally- something with a “2.0” on the end that has substance! My first tech task of 2006 has been the upgrade of CDB to WordPress 2.0 the “Duke” release. There should not be any noticable difference from your view, dear reader, as apparently most of the enhancements are under the hood. I avoided the excitement […]
flickr foto Rock Rustlin’available on my flickr Using a pickup to pull a boulder out of a hole intended for a tree. Not all of our holiday break time was lounging around the cabin vegetating to DVDs. This is a little sport we call “rock rustling”. You see, our property sits flat, but falls away […]
flickr foto Books, Books, Booksavailable on my flickr Where do all the books come from that find their way to a thrift store in Flagstaff? More blogging via flickr… Maybe 1 or 2 readers may recall I’ve been doing all my personal book purchases at thrift stores. Sometimes, staring at a room stuffed full of […]
