Back to work again

I was hoping the long weekend would never end, but it did. So sad! It’s ok, it’s storming outside now, so it’s not like I’m missing good weather! Anyway, thanks for the debate Scoble! It’s been fun to have some back and forth on the topic, without it getting personal. I’ll admit I can see some reasons why people would want to real-time blog, but I still think 99% of the world would be better off doing one thing at a time, and blogging it later. It’s been shown that “multi-tasking” seriously reduces your ability to do anything well, so I’d rather do one thing at a time and do it well. I know I’m one of the folks who has trouble doing more than one thing at once!

The “debate” even picked up some flow from bloggers in Italian and French giving me plenty of reason to use the Free Translation Service, and making me feel like a bit of an international celebrity for a minute. *L*

You can read about my first little test with Open Office’s HTML Editor over in the forums. I posted it there to shorten this post some and give you the option of not reading it if you don’t care at all about it. 🙂

There’s a vulnerability in Opera that you should know about. Download version 6.03 to be protected from it. (Thanks to Geek for the head’s up!)

    According to Gizmodo, Netstumbler 0.4 is out with: “support of the Atheros, Atmel, and Intersil Prism2-based cards (the chipset many WiFi PCMCIA and CF cards use), which means there’s a better chance that NetStumbler or MiniStumbler will work with your hardware.” I could never get the previous version to work with my PCMCIA wireless card,…

    Well it seems like maybe I’ll have to try out this new RSS aggregator, Syndirella, and see how it rates up against the other ones I tried out last year. I should probably fire up Angela’s eMac at some point and try out NetNewsWire Lite and see how that stacks up too although, obviously, since…

  • Lengthy conversations

    I’ve had these sorts of conversations before, but in a smaller company, like everything else, it’s usually not as frequent an occurrence as it is now. Anyone who’s worked supporting users knows exactly the sort of conversation, and while we all appreciate the fact that the user is curious and wants to learn, we all…

    Convinced that maybe Access just plain isn’t going to support 18 digit blogid’s, I did try a couple of new commenting systems with the new blogger version while I ate my lunch. CGIcomments completely didn’t work. Again, probably it’s handling the blog_id as a number and choking on 18 digits. xcomments worked, sort of. I…

    Gee and there are 1171 unread items in my aggregator, so here’s my attempt at noting things to look at later: The IE Team has a blog! RSS Traffic burdens publisher’s servers. -Not a big surprise, but definitely reason to turn off the aggregator every now and then. I generally only poll sites 2-3 times…
