And yes, I did lol a little to myself.
Hate the liberal media? Hate Fox News? Then stop them
https://secure.eff.org/site/Advocacy?cmd=display&page=UserAction&id=451 You won’t see a lot a corporate media coverage on this one (ACTA) as it a) puts them in the spotlight and b) gives them a TON more power. And don’t let folks confuse this issue with net neutrality, which is a completely different beast. Here’s what this does… Just look at some of [...]
Google Logo Pacman
Enjoy Heard about this the other day, finally got around to the playing. Quite a bit easier than the real thing, and well, points for the logo integration as well.
Clearing off the desktop…

Let’s Clear the Desktop First.
I’ve been a bit lax (ha!) in keeping up the blog lately. My apologies for withholding from you. As mentioned previously, the saving the world bit is on the tiring side, and the writing stuff is on the high energy side, and seldom did the ‘twain meet. When one is pouring all of one’s emotional [...]
Why I’m a Writer, Not a “Blogger”
So I finally finished reading Andrew Sullivan’s piece on “Why I Blog” (available here, as a four page blog post). He hits the nail on the head on why I’m not a blogger with this paragraph (and a half). If all this sounds postmodern, that’s because it is. And blogging suffers from the same flaws [...]
