Absolutely Hideous!

808 (aka Robert) told me not to lose the pink, “it’s too easy to be grey.” Uh huh. I think this is about as ugly as it gets. Then again, the yellow photo featured doesn’t help, but it demonstrates well why I went with the grey.

Just curious – did anyone notice the “Photograph Details”?

The Rest of the Story…

I’ve seen all over the place the news that Orrin Hatch wants to trash illegal downloaders’ PCs by blowing them up. (Michael Buffington’s being the most recent.) I haven’t seen as many people take note of the majorly ironic twist. The fact that, as Laurence Simon has pointed out, Senator Hatch’s site uses pirated software. [Via Mike.]

Irony at it’s best. It makes me proud to say that I met Laurence in person (finally!) last night at the Lager Rhythms show. Photographic evidence to be added to this post later.

RSS Feeds Everywhere!

Amazing. Discussion at Blogroots about a RSS to IMAP service. Wow. I mean … WOW! “There is no need for a separate application like a RSS News Aggregator. Your current mail application acts like the Newsreader. Therefore you can start right away, no learning curve. Deal with the feeds like you do with mail.” Awesome! [Via Adam.]

I Laughed, I Cried…

Ceci n’est pas une guerre (c’est l’amour), or This is not a war (it’s love). A silent motion picture production from Jason Kottke, which has made me realize once again that I really need to pay more attention to what is going on in the news. (It was inspired by the recent G8 Summit.)

Surgeon Specific would probably issue a monitor spray warning for this one. Keep all liquids out of your mouth while clicking the link.

How About This…

Many have said that I should keep the pink, or that they would miss the current look of this site. Others have said that they like the Grey template and that it is clean and fresh. I have no intentions of changing the default template – but I did want to offer other “looks” that included the most recent Pixelog photo. I decided to tweak the code a little bit and create this design too as another “coming soon” skin alternative. Pink and fresh, you just get the most recent Pixelog image too.

Ahhhh… the joy of skins. Who knows what else I’ll come up with today…
