Must have coffee…

Yeah, I know, I made a typing error and breakfast in bed turned into breakfast in BAD. I wasn’t trying to insinuate that there was anything but breakfast, I just have this typing/spelling problem. Usually I rely on a good spell check, but, obviously, bad didn’t turn up as a bad spelling so I missed it! Thanks for pointing it out, Anita.

Fred Langa’s latest newsletter has a story on a new bit of scumware that leaves desktop shortcuts and favorite folders to such wonderful things as adult sites, and gambling sites.

That’ll be a fun conversation! So you might want to make sure your browser’s set to ask before running scripts, eh?

Geocities is introducing new paid hosting plans. The interesting thing here is that even with the most expensive plan all you get is PHP support, nothing for Perl, ASP, FrontPage extensions, etc. At $19.95 a month and that’s all I get is PHP support? Are you kidding me?

Court Shuts Down ‘.usa’ Internet Address Scam – I missed this one, but then again, I don’t even look at spam anymore so I probably did get it and delete it without even taking notice of it. I am surprised it fooled that many people, I mean if you follow the internet at all you should know .usa and .brit aren’t valid TLD’s, but I guess not everyone pays that much attention

Especially considering I had never been…

    Friends are Hard to Define

    I’ve been randomly taking a look at Facebook’s “People you may know” feature over the last week or however long it’s been available. It occurs to me today that this feature is actually a perfect example of the limits of the “friend” definition on Facebook and other social networking services. Here’s an example. I have…

    It was a nice 4 day weekend, even though we spent all but the few hours we were at my parents Christmas Day inside the house. It’s still cold and icy here in Columbus, but they are promising us warmer weather starting tomorrow, so maybe some of this ice will, finally, start to melt! I…
