Our local newspaper is running a digital photo contest every week this month. This week’s finalists include a picture by my wife! You too can go over to the The Columbus Dispatch and vote for your favorite. Obviously, my vote is a litle biased. 🙂

Yup, that’s a fresh, new Movable Type installation over at that new domain. Really wasn’t all that difficult and didn’t take too long, considering I was only working on it while waiting for actual work processes to finish and would have to stop every 5 minutes or so. 🙂 I guess if it had my…
Interesting column by Chad Dickerson discussing some of the same things we discussed around here in the last week or so.
