And I pronounced that “sheh-jewel” in my head because I’m that way. So summer’s here, I can tell because it’s a million degrees outside instead of snowing. I am, as they say, very perceptive.
That means I’m going on my summer posting schedule which mostly just means what little posting I used to do on the [...]

It’s funny. If you asked me before I started blogging if I’d get into it, I’d have laughed it off. Up until the day I started blogging, I didn’t figure myself for one. But I had a few things to say and figured I’d give it a shot. Here I am more than a year [...]

Ok, so. The internets. It’s all about extremes, something is THE BEST! or something is THE WORST! You know?

So, if you’ve been hanging around these parts for awhile, you’ll remember that this blog was down for about a month. Down, down, not just not being updated, but server down. It’s been back up for about two weeks and things have mostly shaken out - and I’m seeing what SEO effects occurred because of [...]

You know, if you travel in my august circles, you’d already know about Disqus (pronounced “discuss”). It’s the comment service that everyone’s talking about. Yup, that’s right, in my circles everyone talks about blog commenting services. Don’t be jealous.
I’d been reading and seeing how it was the bomb, most recently a post by Fred Wilson. [...]

Well, work’s calmed down and I’ve lost hope of recovering my old files so I brought #comments backup on another server with slightly old files. But it is now state of the art at Wordpress 2.5.1 which was a painless upgrade from my old 2.x install. I admit that I don’t really love 2.5.1 very [...]

Well, that’s it for March. It went out like a tiger, if you ask me. It was freezing here. Ah well… anyways, here’s what everyone was reading last month (of articles that were posted then). In reverse order of popularity:
8) We froze first! And best!
7) Google shows off Android alpha
6) New Hulk Trailer
