• twitter schoolbus: day two

    today i put my theory to the test. it goes like this: if the twitter rocket program is so easy, and i know the types of things that upstart blogger has exposed in the past so i know what he’d avoid, then the actual process needs to be really freakin’ obvious. so as i was venting…

  • twitter schoolbus experiment

    the more i say it, the more i like the sound of “twitter schoolbus.” it gives the impression that we’re all learning about this process together. here’s my day 1 review (and if it fails, it will be called the twitter short bus): followed everyone i was following on my jazzs3quence and our arcanepalette twitter accounts…

  • a social experiment

    i’m starting a twitter experiment today. i’m tired of reading upstart blogger and listening to all the tales of how great his new product twitter rocket is. i’ve no doubt it works. however, i am left with a lingering skepticism: as great as the product may be, and as fantastic as a 50% payout on his…

  • Why People Suck: A theological examination

    I tend not to get into religion or personal issues here.  The theory is sort of that that’s one of those subjects that’s bound to rile people up and not polite to discuss.  Then again, this site gets very little traffic, so riling people up can only help… I consider myself to be pretty theologically…

  • jazzsequence.com redesign

    i’ve been thinking of redesigning jazzsequence.com.  i love this design, i do, and it was a huge project to design, since much of it was written by hand, but i’ve been thinking of ways to monetize the site, if possible, and this layout isn’t very conducive to that.  it’s a good blog layout, and if…

  • netflixed movie review: who watches the watchmen? no, really, who watches the watchmen?

    we rarely (if ever) go to movies in the theatre anymore. this is sometimes depressing when long awaited films are released in the theatre that we really, really want to see. as the kids get older (particularly our youngest), scheduling a block of 4 or so hours where they can be sat by the grandparents…

  • app review: skimmer

    application: skimmer result: undecided with so many great twitter and social networking apps out there, there’s a lot to choose from, and some stiff competition. and with so many social networks and a lot of crossover between them, you’d need to work hard to build something to suit everybody. this is a review for a…

  • The Kitchen Sink is your friend

    Today I’m going to talk about the Kitchen Sink. No, this isn’t a post about plumbing (thankfully — I hate plumbing). This is about the Kitchen Sink in WordPress. I can see your double-take already.
