Seriously trivial thoughts
Got another one of these in the mail today and I can’t tell you how much it pisses me off! Obviously, *I* know better, but I wonder how many unsuspecting folks fall for this type of scam. Basically, the company sends you this official looking *invoice* titled “Domain Name Expiration Notice”. As you can see, …
Well, I got tired of missing @replies on my Twitter feed so I added a feature to TwitKu.com that shows the last reply you received at the top of the Twitter feed.
BlendingTheMix.com put together a list of “the most bookmarked web-based Twitter applications of the moment…[based on] the number of saved bookmarks on delicious…” OK, so Twitku.com is 100th on the list, STILL, it…is…on…the…list =) I was wondering why visits spiked a little today…
According to this post by Google, they are no longer going to actively develop Jaiku and will release the engine as an open-source project.

I’m swearing off them unless they are my name or something, but I digress. Anyways, I played around with some …
Pulling the plug on Offbe.at. I’m also moving Twitku.com to a new hosted server, but that should be pretty seamless…hopefully. Gotta do everything by Jan 16 because that’s when my current server renews and I don’t want to hang onto it for another month. I’ve also decided to let go of a bunch of domains …
Well, I think I’ve been able to reasonably migrate from Community Server (CS) to WordPress. I lost some comments and forums, but I’ll try to archive so they are safe in some form. Since WordPress doesn’t have an automated way to move a CS blog, I basically converted the CS blog posts to a LiveJournal …
For the first time in my techlife, I’m seriously considering shutting down my webserver. It just seems like an awful lot of money to spend on something that few people access…well other than myself. TwitKu.com was fun, but with the departure of Pownce and the decline of Jaiku, it seems unnecessary. My personal page, which …
