Another Wired article that I just can’t help but post. This one featured semi-prominently in the current issue. Mega-huge huzzahs for #s 2, 10, 14, 19, 39, 59, 90. WTFs out to #s 5, 16, 29, 50, 71, 79-83 (except 82). (And of those WTFs, it’s mostly the “but how could it be any easier?” […]
One of those, “Here is an awesome article that I want to save for later” moments. Neat little number that spells out some web-design technicalities/techniques. Nothing new, I guess — but I did finally learn what “ems” are for on the web.
I feel like my vacation is going pretty well. It was excellent to get out last night and revisit good ol’ Club Charles. Of course, this morning I woke up feeling that stern voice in the back of my head muttering about how I’m not doing nearly the amount of work over my break as […]

A little article the peers might enjoy: RECORD INDUSTRY MAY NOT SUBPOENA ISPs! The appeals judges said they sympathized with the recording industry, noting that “stakes are large.” But the judges said it was not the role of courts to rewrite the 1998 copyright law, “no matter how damaging that development has been to the […]
What a Crappy Present! Don’t they know it’s worse than socks?
Perbloggin’ be all we be doin’ as of late, t’ain’t it? ANYHOO– At right you can observe what I had waiting for me Monday night when we finally returned from our too-long-return-drive home from Maine.
