I’m not trying to say anything bad about my readers…

Since I announced that extra $$ from the Amazon links would be going to Prevent Child Abuse, I’ve had 47 people click through to Amazon from here, which is quite higher than normal, but not a single one of them actually ordered anything. You do all realize that you have to actually buy something for some of the $$ to go to charity, right? 😉

I don’t have any orders for the One Man IT Dept. Store either, but I also don’t know how many of you clicked through there. Cafepress is starting their holiday sale, so you might want to take a look before I decide to close it down due to lack of interest. (Cafepress came out awhile ago and stated that they might start taking down stores with no sales for a long time, assuming that they were no longer in use. I expect that mine might fall into that category at some point, so if you want something, you should probably get cracking!)

On the other hand, maybe I should be talking to someone at Dell about getting a cut from Kevin’s Axim X5 purchase…

    There’s more all around on the latest file-sharing stuff, here, here, and here. The thing to take away from all of this is that there’s a very real possibility that file-sharing will be no more, and that burning music to a cd will become a very burdensome process in the near future. While I don’t…

    Thanks for all the suggestions on a new name. Turns out that rather than just go with one of those suggestions, I’m leaning toward combining two of them and thusly, giving away two PC World subscriptions, assuming that Toby, who left one of those suggestions, will take the time to send me an email so…

    Can AOL Make Money from IM?. In light of the ever-continuing fight between Trillian and AOL, let’s look at some lines from the story: “The three — America Online’s AIM, Microsoft’s MSN Messenger and Yahoo!’s Messenger — have all started adding display ads to users’ buddy lists” -but only one is actively blocking other IM…

    Sorry for the delay in posting, Blogger was doing some back-end upgrades, which I hope will make this stuff even better! Also, sorry for those of you who might have found a 404 when trying to get to this page very early this morning. I don’t know how but it just disappeared off the server….

    Thanks go out to Brad and Eddie for letting me know that Mozilla 1.3 was just released. Also thanks to Chris for letting me know that’s he’s running 1.2.1 and not having the same problem with the crashes. (Don’t we have such a helpful bunch around here?) Must be something on this PC. I’m going…
