This just in: don’t blog about popular seach keywords. Especially not the list on Technorati.
The number two most popular search term (number one being “Eli Horne,” duh) that brings people to my site is “Ikea catalog dog picture.” Great, just great. Eli writes about photoshopped dog penises.
No, seriously, don’t do it. [...]

Today facebook launched two new features, a News feed and a “mini feed.” For those unfamiliar with the service (where have you been hiding?), Facebook is a closed community that was originally only open to college students. By requiring a .edu email address, they were able to screen for students, alumni, or faculty. [...]

I’ve been running into this conversation repeatedly over the past week, so I figured it was time to do a full entry about it. When I wrote my initial response to the CrunchGear piece, “CrunchGear goes back to (private) school,” I got a comment from someone named Robert who didn’t agree with my calling [...]

Breaking news: CNN reports that a stingray killed the ‘Crocodile Hunter.”
Now I know what you are all thinking:
Did one of those gnarly crocs finally get a piece of that Irwin chap?
Nope. Nature exacted its revenge for all of those reptile wrasslin’ matches in the form of a stingray barb through the chest! Honestly, [...]

It’s been 24-hours since the violent backlast against CrunchGear’s laughable attempt at a back to school check list. Derek Punsalan wrote a great entry titled “College Frosh: Don’t break the bank,” and Paul Stamatiou got us back to reality with his “Back to College shopping list.” Paul actually left a comment after reading [...]

CrunchGear is running a piece by John Biggs titled CrunchGear’s Back to School Cheat Sheet.
Normally, I’m all about these types of lists. Despite the repetitive nature of the blogosphere, not everyone reads the same material and if you haven’t been told to buy an iPod yet, you need to be taken out back and [...]

I woke up this morning, cruised through Google Analytics and discovered that my blog went international. I considered titling this post along those lines but I think the picture suffices.
Yesterday I wrote a post about my frustration with spam blog sites and their success at getting high placement on the Technorati blog search list. [...]

Technorati has entered into my top 5 most visited websites as a direct result of my fascination with web analytics. The system seems advanced; blogs are promoted in a “pagerank-like” system that determines authority and popularity by the number of links headed TO your blog, rather than from. This on it’s own seems [...]

I’ve uploaded about 20 new pictures to my Flickr account.
They span the summer, starting out at Kids Rethinking New Orleans’ Schools and passing through the two documentaries we shot in Philly for Concordia under the Tin Foil Films name.
I always appreciate comments on the pictures, so let me know what you think. Over exposed? [...]

Michael Heilemann’s Binary Bonsai has an entry about Webkit, the KHTML engine that Apple’s Safari web brower uses. Webkit itself is an open source project with nightly builds for experimentation. I’d heard about it in passing conversations but never really given it a try. I tend to shy away from beta software [...]
