Baker's Dozen

Okay, so Courtney turned me on to this Baker's Dozen idea, so I'm going to do this, I think. Here is her Baker's Dozen, and here is the homepage for the Baker's Dozen original site. Think of it as zen blogging: the basic idea is twelve items and one picture that describe your weekend. Here we go...

A picture named Instalanche.jpg

  1. 7-6-4-3. "When you leave your feet, something wacky happens!"
  2. Farmer's Market!
  3. Eggs over easy at Boulevard
  4. Weakest Protest Ever!
  5. Instalanche!
  6. The Greatest Show on Earth
  7. "This is not a happy sermon, these are not happy days."
  8. Sakura!
  9. Mmmmm, Ben and Jerry's
  10. "It's...Kitchen Porn!"
  11. "Really, I can stop whenever I want. Right after the next episode."
  12. Grand Marnier Whipped Cream.

GnomeDex 3.0: Gotta Be There.

Be sure to add your Gnomedex buttons to your blogs, ladies and gents. Here's the code:

<a href="http://www.gnomedex.com"><img src="http://www.gnomedex.com/images/gnomedex_button.gif" align=center></a>

I'll be there with MacSlash, and likely working the booth. Be there, or Be Square.

In other news, Tim O'Reilly is speaking there as well. Be there.

New Definition for Surreality.

The web is a deeply strange place. The potential for anonymity, the potential for charlatanry, tomfoolery and other such misanthropy is unmeasurable. I read a tale today of an unbelievable example of the sociopathic mind. This poor guy thought he had a great girlfriend, turned out he had a pathological liar instead.

Yeesh.

*shudder*

And people wonder why I don't tell them Tiffany and I met online.

RSS Feeds and Licenses and "About This Blog"

Mike brings a very good idea to the table today regarding RSS. A few weeks ago, my feed got picked up by a news aggregator that uses my RSS feed as a source for their paid readership, except my license prohibits that, you can't make people pay for my content.

Here is Mike's idea. Basically, it's a license entry for the front of your feed. Kind of an "About This Blog" entry. He's got it on his RSS feed, which you can find here.
