Wishlist time! November 30, 2005
Seeing how it’s less than a month before Christmas and we’ve run full-bore into the shopping season, I figured I’d put up my wishlist. Of course, the one thing standing in the way is that for the most part, I really don’t have a wishlist…at least, not a serious one.

Tweaking the ads November 30, 2005
I’ve done a bit of tweaking on the ads served up on the pages of my site. While I certainly have no intentions of becoming an adfarm, I finally decided that I didn’t mind at least slightly increasing the possibilities of having a few pennies slide my way from time to time.

Prairie and I just got back from (finally) seeing the latest Harry Potter movie. In brief, I think this is my favorite of the series so far.

Heh…I guess after three days, I should really move my ‘happy Thanksgiving’ post down the page a touch, eh?

Buying a camera? November 23, 2005
Oh, by the way…on the off chance that any of my Seattle-area readers are considering or planning on buying a camera this holiday season, I’d love you forever if you came by the Kit’s Cameras store in the Northgate Mall while I’m working.

Top 20 Geek Novels November 23, 2005
The Guardian UK ran a survey voting for the top 20 geek novels written since 1932, and in ‘net meme tradition, here’s the list with those I’ve read in bold. 13 out of 20…65%. Not bad, but I could do better. Time to add to the ever-growing reading list!

Feeds are tagged too November 22, 2005
It’s a good thing I subscribe to my own RSS feeds — the ‘full content’ feed and the ‘full content with comments’ feed have both been updated to include the new tag support. Sorry about the mass-refresh in your RSS readers if you get hit with it.

Folksonomy tag support added November 21, 2005
One of the things I’ve wanted to add to my site for quite a while now has finally been added: tagging, along the lines of del.icio.us or Flickr. Admittedly, I still have a ways to go in getting all my old entries correctly tagged, but that will come with time. For now, they’re showing up in a few places.

Frack! November 18, 2005
Hehe — Prairie and I just finished watching Season One of Battlestar Galactica. I’d seen it before, ‘twas the first time for her. She’s hooked.

Sony’s rootkit November 18, 2005
In one of the (many) stories that have been flying by my radar without being remarked on over the past few weeks, it recently came to light that Sony has been using some incredibly nasty “copy protection” schemes on many of its audio CDs. Wired News has an excellent rundown of the situation that’s worth reading. This is how the major corporations are treating their customers these days. It’s not a pretty thing.

Reconnecting November 11, 2005
Touched off by a couple of random Google searches, over the past couple of weeks, a post of mine has become an impromptu meeting point and simple message board for quite a few of the Anchorage scenesters of the ‘80’s.

Lots of Pictures November 9, 2005
I’ve spent much of the afternoon and evening continuing to work on scanning in old photos that I’ve had lying jumbled up in various boxes. Quite a few have been scanned in and uploaded to my Flickr account.

Who’s going to die tonight? November 9, 2005
A few weeks ago, after the promo for tonight’s episode of Lost promised that, ‘one of these survivors will be lost forever,’ I put a poll up (both here and on my LiveJournal) to see who people thought was going to be the unlucky party. Here’s the results…
