so if you aren’t following me on twitter, you may not know that i got a laptop in the mail yesterday. my new toy is a 13″ macbook with osx tiger, 2gb ram, 60gb hd and 2ghz (actually i think maybe 2.2 ghz) processor.  i got it on ebay for a total of $710 including […]

so i’m rethinking my stance on twitter.  slightly.  let me just say that i thnk a lot of twitters are inane and obnoxious, like “going to the bathroom” or “eating” and i don’t care about those.  if it was a waste of a blog post, it’s a waste of a twitter.  however, in reading things […]

i nixed the single sign on due to the fact that a) it was kind of buggy and b) i didn’t need it anyway. but in better news.  WII.  seriously.  wii.  it’s wiitastic.  i’m wiidicted.  it’s wiilicious.  and i’ve got wii-arm now. gavin’s b-day is coming up so we decided to get him a wii.  […]

w00t! WordPress and KickApps are now playing nice.  the single sign on app is working and all is right with the world.  there were a couple really little dumb things that needed tweaking.

this time hosted by the new jazzsequence community network site. w00t.

wired ran a blog post on what everyone in the tech biz is thinking (namely the iphone).  it’s called wordle and what it does is take a body of text, or a blog, or something, and creates a tag cloud (like what i have on the right) based on the word usage.  a  pretty one […]

looks like the single sign-on thing isn’t working right….when you create your wp account it doesn’t pass the authentication to the members/community site.  sorry about this folks, i’m getting it worked on. UPDATE well i got the join link up top working…sorta.  it’s just not using the single sign-on.  but it’s a temporary fix… UPDATE […]

verily it was decided that it was time for a makeover of the thinktank site.  this came down from on high because we went to some other web designers’ sites and realized most, if not all, our contemporaries tended to be a lot more conservative in their presentation on their own website.  now, this seems […]

dr horribe, which i quickly mentioned last time, is joss whedon‘s latest entertainment foray as an internet-only, 1 week, limited, totally free, musical/blog thing.  it stars neil patrick harris (doogie howser) and nathan fillion (firefly‘s malcom reynolds) and i can’t wait.  here’s the teaser: Teaser from Dr. Horrible’s Sing-Along Blog on Vimeo.

so we got a new client for thinktank.  it’s a wordpress blog, and it’s mostly maintenance and updates, but it’s still pretty cool.  our client wants to build/integrate a social networking component, so i did some researching and found KickApps Social Networking Software.  the more i read into it and compared the alternatives, the cooler […]

so it’s been bugging me for a while.  why is it that in the comments of my posts, there are avatars (or generic, blank avatars), but no way to use/change/update/upload your avatar?  i even poked around in the user preferences in the blog several times trying to find where “upload avatar” was located, to no […]

in my last post, i expressed my woe at the sudden upheaval of my computer.  today i woke up excited because my hardware was coming.  now i have a history of always forgetting something.  i get a new motherboard but the processor doesn’t match.  i get a motherboard and processor but don’t have the right […]
