The site has been working pretty consistently, but of course the one time I write a really long post and hope for some folks to go to my my wife’s blog and wish her a happy birthday the site goes down for 12 hours! So don’t think you’re too late because the entreaty was written last night, most people won’t see it until tonight! Update:The 3-4 hours of uptime was followed by another 17 or so hours of the site being down. As of 10:47ET Sunday morning it seems to be working again..but for how long?

Turns out someone…

The arms race continues

There are a number of arms races going on, hackers, spammers, etc. This one’s about popups. Some folks figured out how to use Flash to get around Firefox’s pop-up blocker, and thanks to a post on Steve Holden’s blog, I see that someone had figured out a config change to combat that.

Good morning, I didn’t get much of anything accomplished with the pics last night, I was too caught up in the fantastic finish of the Islanders-Maple Leafs game last night. However, my lovely wife was kind enough to burn all of them on a CD last night, so I may get some free time at…
