I make things on the internet
“Hello website, my old friend… it’s been awhile.”
“I didn’t mean to ignore you.”
“Seriously, I tried to call a few times, but it never seemed right.”
“You’ve run off with a root-server?”
“There has to be something I can do.”
“A makeover?”
“Yes, but the last one was so ill-conceived.”
“One more chance? I promise it will be better this time.”
“I’m about to explode with glee.”
What wine you should pair with that Big Mac? Bill Daley also covers some of the low-couture aspects of our favourite swill, with snack foods and brats getting equal coverage. Personally, I’m a fan of Veuve Cliquot with mozarella sticks.
The latest in non-lethal weaponry: a gun that fires pink teddy-bears.
Today is CSS Reboot, that means a lot of your favourite personal sites will be sporting a fresh new look. Other folks have been at it for months, I signed up on Saturday. Suffice it to say that the place is looking a little dicey right now.
I’ll avoid details about the implementation and what I’m up to for the moment. It’s mostly about having a fresh spring-look and encouraging myself to produce more.

If you haven’t watched it yet, Stephen Colbert’s address to the Whitehouse correspondant’s dinner is probably the best piece of journalism that you’ll see this year.
If you add a Flickr photo to your del.icio.us bookmarks, you’ll now receive a little thumbnail beside your link. Beyond the network stability, it’s one of those little benefits from Yahoo purchasing both sites.
It might not sit well with the old-school users that like the austere look, but I find the visual representation handy. I noticed it because I’ve been using my bookmarks to keep track of my comments around the web.
If you’re into typography, you’ve probably come across Luc Devroye’s font compendium at some point. Unfortunately, it was taken down by the McGill administration this week because he wrote about the school’s party reputation and the recent undergrad photographs in Playboy. His site is now hosted at Carleton, where cooler heads prevail. Regardless of school politics, taking down a professor’s site in the middle of exam season is not cool.
Beneather the Surface takes a look at what your Animal Crossing town says about you. I’m more like the crazy ninja that runs around. Haven’t played in awhile, so my town is probably full of weeds.
Seal Club hitting you hard with a fresh set of five questions for Zach Inglis.
