Late to the party on this one, but it is interesting for a former-record label owner to read about the controversy re: co-op advertising/indie labels/best buy vs. Mom’nPop shops here: saki store blog
I haven’t fully processed the passing of Caulfield Records, nor some of the loose ends involved. I might write about it here, but somehow I haven’t gotten to the point of truly pouring my heart out into web-log format.
maybe someday. maybe never.
Area Code, Sweet Area Code I kept 402 when I moved because friends and family can call a local number, but I’d be lying if it wasn’t partly because Nebraska is the best. Shh… it’s a secret.

I’ve given up on the automated
del.icio.us daily blog posting
. In theory, pretty cool, but in practice not so good for me. Daily posts of links look… well… ugly.
I use del.icio.us quite a lot, but those daily posts are going to outweigh regular posts – always. why do you care? Well, maybe you would be interested in the javascript linkrolls or perhaps the json implementation. Good stuff.
SIX THINGS YOU DON’T KNOW ABOUT: NEBRASKA.: “Nebraska, it’s not in the middle of nowhere. It’s in the middle of everything.” (via good problem)
If the ol’ laptop power meter was sayin’ more than the 6% it’s tellin’ me it has righ now, I’d be surfin’ Alex Gross’s fine website of illustrations.
It’s also time for bed.
Just a thank you shout to the wordpress community of developers, plug-in hackers and theme developers for making personal web publishing, err.. web-loggering interesting again. I’ve been playing around with blog software for a long time – Blogger (the non-hosted era), greymatter, and more recently Movable Type which powered this site (in fits and starts, of course) for a few years.
And somewhere along the line… MT v3, I believe, I got bored. I got bored because I am more of a tinker-er than a ‘blogger’, and MT 3 threw in a ton of template cruft, and sad default templates that it didn’t seem fun to re-engineer the templates to a simple state. And then there is perl. Guh. So WordPress, thanks for making playing with the web during off-hours fun again.
