    • Link Journalism Even though I'm 'just' a consumer, not a journalist in any sense, and not involved with or affiliated with any of these organizations, I'm fascinated by the effects of the evolving connections that technology is making possible between the media and the public, and within and among the various media organizations themselves.

    • 4,000 Lattes…to go? From this morning's introduction of the iPhone, as Steve Jobs was demonstrating various features of the gadget (as reported by [MacRumors)...
  • 2006
    • 35.30572% Geek At least, according to the Original Geek Test, that's my final score.
    • It’s Illegal to be Annoying No, I'm not kidding. Annoying someone via the Internet is now a federal crime.
    • Andy Rosen: Early punk photos I came across an article in today's Seattle Times about Andy Rosen, who'd taken a lot of photographs of the early punk scene in London -- and is just now starting to showcase a lot of never before seen photos on Flickr.
    • Ego up, ego down Perfect scores can go two ways: perfectly good...or perfectly bad.
  • 2005
    • Hey…what’s all that white stuff? Well, it finally happened — after nearly a week of wild rumors and near-panic (I had no less than three of my customers at work plan 'snow days' last Thursday based on the weather reports), it's finally actually snowing in Seattle this morning.

    • blockquotes in TypePad and MovableType Over the past few days, a few people have been posting in a thread on the TypePad User Group, trying to figure out why every so often, using the blockquote tag would suddenly cause display issues in a finished post.
    • Jobs/Mayer collaboration online The composition created by Steve Jobs and John Mayer during the Macworld keynote while demoing GarageBand has been posted online.
    • Curls? I'm starting to wonder just how long I can go before I get sick of the curls and shave my head again. It could be just a few days — or it could be months.
    • More on the iHPod Additionally, one (and only one) report — that at the moment, doesn't seem to be taken terribly seriously by most people — claims that HP 'will be working with Apple to add support for Microsoft's superior Windows Media Audio (WMA) format to the iPod by mid-year.'
    • Kodak moments …the bottom line is simply anybody but Bush. And by 'anybody', I mean anybody who can realistically have a chance of defeating Bush — and by that, I mean the Democratic nominee.
    • ecto beta available The creator of blogging client Kung-Log has rewritten, updated, and renamed it, and has just relased the first public beta of ecto, which I'm playing with now.
  • 2003
    • Why does [Pres. Bush] want to drop bombs on innocent Iraqis? At the earlier briefing, Ari, you said that the President deplored the taking of innocent lives. Does that apply to all innocent lives in the world? And I have a follow-up. My follow-up is, why does he want to drop bombs on innocent Iraqis?
    • Lots of categories Categories are now listed in each individual post, and there's a lot more to choose from. Am I too anal yet? I've gotta be getting there.
    • Ain't goin' down… Someday, I would dearly love to hear Garth Brooks' 'Ain't Goin' Down 'til the Sun Comes Up' as covered by Ministry. Possibly with Les Claypool doing the vocals. I can hear it in my head — I just wish I could hear it with my ears.
    • Browser Daydreaming Respoding more seriously to Phil Ulrich's question of what I'd like to see in a web browser, I daydream for a while about perfect UIs and plug-in based rendering engines.
  • 2001
    • Words of Wisdom I normally nuke just about every piece of random e-mail I get, but I got one today that I actually thought was worth sharing: Things I wish I'd known before I went out in the real world.

    • [From the archives: 1.9.96 0314] Created a page to shamelessly promote myself, with the various (okay, two) clubs I'm dj'ing at currently. (grin) Hey, somebody's gotta do it, right?

    • [From Usenet 1.9.95 0231] I've seen it on two discs...the import version of the HLAH single (pink and blue cover, no halo number listed, only three tracks to it.
