Hey, Anne-Marie! Does Brambleberry carry caffeine anhydrous? I want to make my own Caffeinated Soap! [via Robyn]

Run down Jakob Nielsen. Come on, you know you want to. I should note that this Flash game includes great useability. I wonder if that makes Jakob happy? [via Snarky Malarkey]

In reading one of Mena’s latest entries at dollarshort.org, I was reminded of something I think of almost every time I listen to the radio in the car. My drive to work is only 5-6 minutes each way, so I don’t get to listen to much music in the car. A lot of times I’ll turn the car on and there will be a song on that I really like (normally tuned in to 106.9 The Point and thinking of Promo’s love of ’80s music) and the song is almost over. Don’t you hate that? I’ve become so spoiled by my Tivo, now I wish there was a Ravo! The ability to rewind the radio up to 30 minutes – that way I could listen to the whole song! Wouldn’t that be cool?

I just decided to take a peak at TechTV | Call For Help in anticipation of Gnome-Girl’s appearance on the show this afternoon. On the site it actually says:

Meet Chris’ Stalker
Gnome-girl gives step-by-step instructions for starting your first weblog.

First of all, it’s obvious that they haven’t read the article I did last week about how that’s really supposed to be Chris’s stalker (ugly, but correct.) Meanwhile – she may be his stalker, but I was threatening last night to register a domain to the effect that I am Chris Pirillo’s Bitch. IamChrisPirillosBitch.com was still available last time I checked, but with 18 other domains, I just don’t need another right now!

A *HUGE* thanks goes out to Chey for mentioning Blogomania in her article for the show notes (on the second page, where she gives more detailed instructions.) I can’t wait to get home tonight to see the show!

Looking through the stats … what’s that URL there? It’s a long one, but it leads you to a blogger blog named “blah,blah,blog” and his May 20, 5:25 pm post says “Someone stole my site name.” Uh, no. I didn’t steal your site name. You can check with my friends that were there when I named the site way back in May, 2000 – this isn’t exactly a new site. Registered the URL on September 5, 2000. Rob has a few posts in June, 2000 and no archives until October, 2000. Seems I didn’t steal your name, Rob. But thanks for checking.

I should note that, ironically, Robyn first found my site because she thought of the name too and wanted to see if it was available last summer! It wasn’t, I was here, we met … and the blog world was never quite the same! Mwuhahaha!
