Okay... so, I'm gonna cool it about the randomizer network next week - thanks for putting up with my promotional noise this past week.  I'll just say it appears to be working - even on a Sunday with only 19 active members, virtually all of their sites got 10-20 more hits than they would have had they not joined.

Many surfers like to explore and the thought of a randomly selected site is appealing to them.  Thanks to everyone who's joined so far - as more Radio weblogs come on board, it should get better and better for all. 

Matt Griffith points to Spamex as a potential solution to spam...   [So many islands, so little time] 

Shawn Dodd:  "There are just two solutions to the whole Hollywood vs. File Sharing problem.  The first solution involves the entertainment industry adopting a sustainable business model that acknowledges the basic truth that bits are copyable.  The second solution involves end users giving up fundamental rights (e.g. fair use, first sale and others) we've enjoyed since as early as the 1800s, and giving them up without getting anything in return."

Shawn also points to Digital rights management - we're all grilled and toasted in another post. 

More Grilling Tips from Robert K. Brown... here's the original piece he did on grilling. 

Joe Friend:  "The page for Joe Jennet's radio randomizer webring is at the bottom of the Daypop Top list. That means I'm getting hits from Daypop, which is kinda cool. So far, three people have been redirected from Daypop to my site."

;~))   (that was yesterday) 

Nicholas Riley:  "This week, Strong Bad appears to have some issues with a poor tangerine iMac." 

Rafe Colburn has a several excellent Palladium-related links... 

  Welcome Jumpgate Alwin and Redwood Asylum...

Broadband For Pennies   [Synergic Earth News]

Nice little piece on Wi-Fi... 

  New page added for members of jenett.radio.randomizer - it lists all the current member sites with links to their list of recent referrers from the network.  There's a permanent link to it below the cute little button on the sidebar.

RAVE Act: RIP Live Electronic Music.  The RAVE Act, whose acronym stands for "Reducing Americans' Vunerability to Ecstacy", would fine people or companies that organize or host events "featuring loud, pounding dance music" up to $2,000,000, and allows promoters to be jailed for up to 20 years, without requiring officials to prove that any of the attendees actually possessed drugs...  [kuro5hin.org]

"without requiring officials to prove that any of the attendees actually possessed drugs" - you've got to be kidding! 

  Welcome to the randomizer, Outwardly Normal 2 and Family Medicine Notes - we're now up to 17 sites in the database plus 5 more in the queue...
