subscribe/share/etc.

You can subscribe to my blog posts (which includes a daily digest of my LifeStream) via RSS 2.0, RSS .92, Atom 0.3, or Google Reader.

I have had a blog in some form since 2003, so just for fun, you could jump to a random post.

Search my posts all the way back to April 2003

The search is a little quirky, so being creative helps.
For example, a search for slumber party night will find ANY ONE of the words, while "slumber party night" (in quotes) will only find the exact phrase and I don't always use the complete phrase and sometimes I abbreviate it to SPN.
Therefore, a search for slumber spn with no quotes should find every post that mentions our little ritual.

september pics now online

well, since i am about to have quite possibly hundreds of balloon pics, i figured i’d better knock out the september pics early (on time)…
i used jalbum again, but, this time i used the Experience skin… it lacks a few things, but, i keep having java errors with ExhibitPlus, the one i really love (i . . . → Read More: september pics now online

aol doesn’t like my email address?

now twice this week an AOL’er has told me that they tried to email me at my usual email address (him at christophercornelius.com) and aol didn’t allow it, saying the address was too long…
anyone know anything about this?
a VERY quick, superficial search turned up no references to anyone else complaining about it, but, i was in . . . → Read More: aol doesn’t like my email address?

oh man, where’d my sidebar go?!

uh, i made a minor change or two and now, instead of my sidebar, i am getting “Parse error: parse error, unexpected ‘}’ in”…

it’s not even a complete error message!

and i am supposed to be asleep right now, no time to look into it in any detail…

i hate it when stuff like . . . → Read More: oh man, where’d my sidebar go?!

Skype me, baby!

yeah, i know that Google Talk is what everyone is talking about right now, but, after hearing the word “Skype” for the bazillionth time, i took the plunge and installed it…
if it is as cool as everyone says, i will add it to the contact info over there on the sidebar, but, i gotta’ try it . . . → Read More: Skype me, baby!

finally got change detection again

ok, i set up monitoring with ChangeDetection.com for this site…
look over there to the right, all the way at the top, right below the search box, and you will see a link that says “click here to be notified by email when this site is updated”…
pretty self-explanatory…
click that, it will take you to a page where . . . → Read More: finally got change detection again

9/11

well, this year i am not re-posting the entry i have posted the last three years, but, i will link to the last time i posted it…
i usually call it something like “My Annual 9/11 Post That I Think EVERYONE Should Read“…

and while i am linking to old 9/11 posts, this post on my old site . . . → Read More: 9/11

abq gas prices, our abq trib, and…

live info from AlbuquerqueGasPrices.com, a handy little site that tells you where to go to get the cheapest gas (though, atm as i am posting this, it is showing a low of 2.62 and the site says the lowest around is 2.85, so, i guess it is not bug-free)… i doubt i will add this . . . → Read More: abq gas prices, our abq trib, and…

firefox extensions

if you use firefox, do yourself a favor and go get some extensions!!

i have been using a few since day one, but, i finally went and got a bunch and there are some truly amazing ones…

case in point is the text-to-images… you know how my photo directories are just a bunch of numbered links? . . . → Read More: firefox extensions

august pics now online, with a twist

i doubt anyone had noticed, but, the first few directories in the photos collection are photo albums… from time to time in the last month or two, i have been toying with JAlbum, this groovy photo album maker… it is very simple, but, a little slow, at least on my leaves-much-to-be-desired machine…

anyway, so, this . . . → Read More: august pics now online, with a twist

amusing attempt to re-live the old days…
[via Waxy]

for the record, at that time, i was in the early stages of my techie journey with a TI-99/4A (with the 128k (?) memory expansion, disk drive, voice synthesizer, 300 baud modem, printer – ah, what i wouldn’t do for a pic of my old desk), i remember . . . → Read More: Engadget 1985
