  • PCC: I Digress

    October 26, 2005

    Perhaps I spoke to soon in my September 7 post about PCC’s noninvolvement in the hurricane effort. I came across an article in the Pensacola News Journal about PCC’s involvement in Hurricane Ivan recovery effort: “Rebuild organization gets $50,000 donation – Rebuild Northwest Florida has received a $50,000 donation from Pensacola Christian College. The gift... Read More

  • The Athiest’s Creed

    October 25, 2005

    “We today believe in Marxfreudanddarwin. We believe everything is O.K. as long as you don’t hurt anyone to the best of your definition of hurt and to the best of your definition of knowledge. We believe in the therapy of sin. We believe that taboos are taboo. We believe that everything is getting better despite... Read More

  • Jesse Needs…

    October 24, 2005

    Saw this on Angela’s site (Angela needs therapy!) and thought I’d give it a whirl. Here are the top 10 20 “Jesse needs” on Google: Jesse needs some reading spectacles. Jesse needs to release a true autobiography. Jesse needs an award–I don’t know what, but something for sure. Jesse needs a forever home that will... Read More

  • What the… Flock 0.5pre?

    October 20, 2005

    It’s calling itself “the social browser” and claims to be the champion of Web 2.0. Visit the site and you’ll find humongous type and a free-spirited blurb about the way the web should work, but what is Flock and should you be excited about it? It claims to be one of the first browsers that... Read More

  • Powering Your Whole Site with MT

    October 20, 2005

    A question that is raised by serious professionals considering Movable Type for their CMS needs is “What about static page?” Obviously MT was made for dynamic pages. Turning a list of entries into well organized websites is what MT does best. But it’s those individual, doesn’t-quite-fit-in-the-flow, static pages that can cause grief, consternation and if...

  • In Celebration of My 300th Entry

    October 16, 2005

    I thought I’d get particularly transparent and tell you a little bit about myself, in celebration of my 300th entry. I know, I know, it’s not the same as the cool image I created when I celebrated 200. Well, cowboy, you just don’t celebrate as much when you get older. Now when I hit 500,... Read More

  • Love Changes You

    October 16, 2005

    Sometimes I write because I want to share with everyone great things I’ve discovered. Sometimes I write because I’m trying to figure things out. And then there’s those orange nights when the train whistle blows and the mind wanders the shiny black streets and brims with so many big indescribable things. The compulsion to write... Read More

  • Apple and the Impossible

    October 12, 2005

    Everyone was guessing about what Apple’s big announcement was this afternoon, and boy is it a shock! With the release of the impossibly small iPod Nano just a few weeks ago, all of the geeks (including me) were saying it wasn’t going to be the rumored video iPod. Everyone’s hunch was a brand new iMac... Read More

  • Del.icio.us!

    October 11, 2005

    Some of you may be familiar with this social browsing experience, but those of you who aren’t should really get on the bandwagon. You read the title right, that’s the domain name: del.icio.us — no www’s (so cliche!) just exactly as you read it there. What del.icio.us is at it’s core is a bookmark storage... Read More

  • Movable Type Turns 4

    October 8, 2005

    Far from dirtying diapers and burping up formula and mushed peas, Movable Type is aging quite well. It’s gone from the experimental code Ben and Mena first cooked up to a full-fledged, more-than-you-bargained-for CMS that has everyone talking (read: powered by and fuel for discussion). And the future looks bright, with people like Jay, Chad,... Read More

  • Movable Type Turns 4

    October 8, 2005

    Happy Birthday Movable Type! One of the most powerful and well-supported content management systems turns four years old today, and we have a host of people to thank for it, not the least of which are Ben and Mena Trott, the founders of the MT engine and Six Apart. Also, kudos to Jay Allen, 6A... Read More

  • Laptop Surgery

    October 8, 2005

    UPDATE: Well, after a long, tedious surgery and a few mishaps involving thermal compound, I’ve pieced it together and it’s running like a charm. Matter of fact, it’s running SO quietly that I thought the fan wasn’t working! Hurrah for geekism! Well, so I did it. I dove headlong into a complete dissection of my... Read More

  • Paradigm Lost?

    October 7, 2005

    OH NO. I’ve stared death (comma the blue screen of) in the face and lived to tell. That’s right, my laptop has gone to the great BIOS in the sky. I’m hoping to roll the stone away and call out, “DATA, COME FORTH” before it gets comfy up there. This certainly puts the paradigm on... Read More

  • A Whole New Paradigm

    October 6, 2005

    Well, you know how I am when it comes to talking things up. But no, really, this should be interesting. I’m going to be moving this blog to a new domain and giving it the respect it deserves. When my own dad can’t even remember my blog URL, you know it’s time for change. I’ve... Read More
