- Thank You, Chuck Norris
- If, by some chance, you don’t get the title reference then you need to watch more Vince Vaughn movies. Anyway… Chuck Norris is awexome, we all know this. If you don’t know that, then you deserve a roundhouse kick to the face. Just in case... full entry
- TiVo Series3: HDTV, Baby!
- This makes me excited. Oh yes, it definitely does. On display at CES this week is the forthcoming (mid-to-late 2006, apparently) TiVo Series3 box. MegaZone has the full post with info, but here are some highlights: HTDV support. CableCARD support. Dual tuners (actually, 6 tuners... full entry
- Rick Has a Blog. Again.
- Somehow, I completely missed this news. Well, actually, I know exactly how I missed it, but that’s not the point. The point is that Rick Ellis (oh he of pMachine and ExpressionEngine fame) has a new weblog going. He previously had one going and then... full entry
- CSS Star Rater
- You’ve no doubt seen these sort of “star raters” before at places like Amazon, Netflix, etc. When you’re rating an item and mouse over a series of stars, they highlight showing you the number of stars you currently have selected. Typically, these types of features... full entry
- Is This America?
- Boing Boing pointed to an editorial in the Miami Herald by Robert Steinback that touches on some of the things in this country that have changed so much in the last few years. If, back in 2001, anyone had told me that four years after... full entry
- Redefining Feed Icons
- There’s a bit of a movement about these days to make RSS/Atom/Whatever data feeds more accessible to people. In the past, the closest thing we had to a standard were those really ugly orange “XML” graphics. Lots of people used them because they were a... full entry
- WebDev: 24 Ways
- This is a simple site with a simple concept: each day of December, another web development-related hint/tip/trick gets posted. Thus, you end up with 24 Ways “to impress your friends”. Not all the articles are super-useful to me, but there are certainly some interesting ones... full entry
- ExpressionEngine 1.4 and more
- While I may no longer be officially affiliated with pMachine, Inc. (makers of pMachine and ExpressionEngine), that doesn’t mean that I don’t still follow what’s happening and enjoy the products. This week saw the release of ExpressionEngine 1.4, which is a far more significant release... full entry
- Portable Firefox
- All of you out there are good little boys and girls and are using Firefox instead of Internet Explorer, right? Good. Well, now you can even use it when you’re on the road by simply placing a copy on one of those 147 flash drives... full entry
- Samorost 2
- This one was found via (I think) Boing Boing. Somorost 2 is a flash-based game sort of in the same genre as Myst and those types; a puzzle solving game. Some aliens kidnapped your faithful dog and now you’re on a mission to go save... full entry
- Bush’s Speechalist
- Found this via Boing Boing: it’s a short mockumentary about President Bush’s speechalist. Ever wondered why Bush talks so poorly? Well, now you’ll know!
- LotR as World of Warcraft
- You can blame Derek for my sad addiction to World of Warcraft, Blizzard’s online multiplayer RPG game. I also love the Lord of the Rings movie trilogy (then again, who doesn’t?). So, it should come as no surprise that I found this mashup (mirror 1,... full entry
- Hating people in style!
- The much discussed tee-shirt is now available for sale! Some people say, “I don’t hate people, I hate their behavior.” But the more you’re around people, the more you realize, naw, people’s behavior isn’t bad, they’re just jerks. Proclaim it loud. Or in lowercase, at... full entry
- Serenity… Rocks
- I just got back from an early screening of the movie Serenity, which is opening up on Friday. I won’t give away any plot points or spoilers, but I do just want to share the simple fact that this movie is AWEXOME!! If you’re a... full entry
- i hate people
- Well, not really. Or, at least, not all the time. But sometimes… sometimes I really do come close to just losing faith in people in general. Typically with the intelligence of people in general. This feeling almost always happens due to my participation in providing... full entry
- Cool Tee, Great Cause
- Threadless (a place to get some really cool t-shirts like, say, Dark Side of the Garden) is doing a special t-shirt in response to the Hurricane Katrina disaster. If you buy the Regrowth: Katrina shirt for $10, they’ll donate $10 to the Red Cross. So,... full entry
- Serenity, Legoized
- What happens if a person has the time, resources and skill for Legoizing (if that’s not a word, then it should be), has an interest for Firefly, and some web space to spare? I’m pretty sure you’ll click on this link to find out.
- WWII as RTS Game
- This had me laughing so hard that I had to pause several times while reading it just to catch my breath. Basically, it’s a “chat transcript” as if World War II had been an RTS game. Hitler[AoE]: cool, i start with panzer tanks! paTTon: lol... full entry
- GROW… the sequel
- Way long ago, I linked to a Flash game called “GROW”. The object was to add the elements in the correct order so that they interact with each other and max out each piece’s “level”. Very bizarre and very cool. Well, the same folks who... full entry
- My God, it’s Full of Pixels
- A week or so ago, I made one of those purchases that I really probably shouldn’t have made. You know, one of those “you don’t need it, you just want it” type purchases. I’ve done this before in the past; sometimes I regret it later,... full entry
