A while back, when first exploring launchd, I mentioned the launchd editor from over at codepoetry. Today, however, I saw Lingon featured on TUAW. This is just something that they should have bundled with X.4 in the first place. Well, I’m excited. It seems to be pretty full featured w/ a UI that makes sense, […]
Prompted by this post on TUAW: draggable, re-arrangeable tabs auto-populating RSS bookmark collection (just prompt me when I visit the site “Add feed? Yes – No – Don’t Ask Again”) configurable search tool (different engines or custom search URLs like en.wikipedia.org) “Do you really want to close this window? (13 tabs open)” play nicer with […]
WordPress migration (more/less) complete. Some minor tweaking here and there to get things “just right” but I think this one will stick long-term. We’d just out-grown what Blogger could do for us around here. Needed something more powerful, more flexible, and less prone to flaking out. currently playing: Depeche Mode “Dream On”

I’m inside this giant warehouse that feel straight out of a Doom level. (It’s all surface and no interior. You can get on but not in something or else in it but not on it.) I keep missing calls on my cell but it never rings or vibrates or anything. It just shows up: 3 […]
Took the evening off and categorized the early posts all the way back to ’03. (Not that bad, actually – – I did that while watching Kung Pow…) There’s still a bit to do though: blogroll port over scripts.js esp. w/r/t/ inserting the oblique strategies here adapt old Blogger CSS styles to the new format […]
This is a test post… Here is what we looked like earlier tonight… (Chicken and egg question: Is my insomnia from this? Or is this something to do because of insomnia?) TO DO: get the new styles as in-line with the old as possible (esp. since I’d just so recently put so much work in […]
We here at F_D are thinking of flipping the switch and giving WordPress a shot. Our growing(?) needs seem to insist upon it. So if we’re blank or otherwise ambiguous in the next 24-72 hours, please excuse the mess. currently playing: Tears For Fears “Head Over Heels”
This post is one of those gems that simply needs reiteration: Not that beer and the future are incompatible, heaven help us if they were, but it’s not just cell phones. Clothes, music, a whole generation of young people who, like people who think nothing of heading off to another country for a weekend techno […]
A comment made by False45th’s Flatlander, in addition to some other recent ruminations had me thinking lately about the coming(?) era of programmatic serendipity in our socially aware apps. This is something I keep hearing about in the context of Web 2.0 esp. w/r/t/ apps like Flickr, del.icio.us, and even /shudder/ things like Friendster and […]
