Explaining tech to the Layperson »

You see, wire telegraph is a kind of a very, very long cat. You pull

The Social Network Blues »

How many social networks do you belong to?
Me? Too many. You could spent all your time keeping up with these things, and man…if you thought MMORPGs were a timesink, you should try to keep up with all the friend requests, zombie apps, etc, etc, etc.
There comes a point where I feel I’ve been social [...]

Pownce Thoughts and Wishlist »

I’ve been playing with Pownce the last few days, and I find it interesting. It’s a decent refining of Twitter, and I think it has potential. I’ll be curious to see where Kevin Rose and his team take in the next month.

Damn me for not having mad design skillz.

…found a book of magic in a garbage can… »

I just found my old copy of Lou Reed’s New York.
Man, what a great album. And what memories it brings back, eh, Tony?

Missing the Harping Monkey »

I’m sitting here listening to the Round Table. How odd not to be on it. I’m missing it terribly. I’ll admit that I suck at participating on the boards, but I miss the conversation. I now know what Mick meant about wanting to jump in and join the conversation.
*sigh*
