Dvorakblog…

After he slammed on blogs the last time, now he’s writing about us again. Yes, the mighty Dvorak has written up a lovely article, Deconstructing the Blog, where he takes the time to give us his very own “Eight Rules for the Perfect Blog”. Whatever Dvorak, be as snarky as you like – I think it’s all just a ploy to get people to know your name. A non-blogger, you were so left out of the growing blog community, you wanted to find some way in. Whatever. (Yes, the article is from April 2, the day my blog was lost in cyberspace. Everyone else has probably already read this article but me. Sorry, I was movin’ sites!) [via Blogatelle]

As If the Pop-Up is Not Enough…

Get ready for advertisers to take over your Web browser. Yes, you read that right. You thought the pop-up ads weren’t enough, right? So now they will just take over your whole browser! “A New York online ad technology firm, United Virtualities, is preparing to introduce a product that will allow advertisers to automatically change the appearance of Web browsers, usurping some of the functions built into popular browsers designed by Microsoft Corp. and Netscape Communications, a unit of AOL Time Warner Inc.” Oh, that’s just lovely. Get your hands off of my browser, damn it! Hopefully someone will talk some sense into these people, because I will never support a company that runs an ad like that. For a change I actually agree with Jakob Nielsen when he says “I think it steps over the line of what’s permissible. Changing software is not permissible. The software is mine.”
