About this site's lack of design: Yes, it's supposed to look this way — I'm helping create a new sandbox theme for WordPress (see it on GitHub).

MovableType Meetup

Now this would be really cool! Unfor­tu­nately, the clos­est area which appears to have enough peo­ple to actu­ally meet is Tampa, a 4–5 hour drive from Fort Laud­erdale. I’m the only per­son to try to sign up in Broward County so far (appar­ently). So, any other Palm Beach/Broward/Miami-Dade Mov­able­Type users out there? Speak up, I […]

Recent Adventures in Moblogging

I’m lucky enough to be a second-round beta tester for SixApart’s upcom­ing Type­Pad ser­vice, and I’ve just been hav­ing a blast post­ing via email (“Moblog­ging”).

RIP Netscape

AOL has finally axed Netscape. Luck­ily, Mozilla devel­op­ment will con­tinue, at least for the time being.

Yes, there are still other browsers around (Opera fans UNITE!), and […]

Referrers Updated

Just an FYI really: I’ve upgraded to Refer 2.01 for this site’s Refer­rers sec­tion. I have not fig­ured out (yet) how to trans­fer my old refer­rers to the new SQL table (any hints?), so for the time being the old refer­rers can still be viewed here. Please for­give any glitches in the dis­play of the […]

Reinvigorate Your Stats

I just signed up for a neat lit­tle ser­vice: RE_INVIGORATE // Data Archiv­ing Ser­vices. They pro­vide all sorts of web stats analy­sis, includ­ing browser type, plat­form, screen res­o­lu­tion, as well as mon­i­tor­ing hits and refer­rers (although for refer­rers I’m still hung up on Dean Allen’s Refer 2.0). The UI is very nice, and we’ll see […]
