24 hour dotcom

June 12, 2004

Some guys over at the Wizards of OS conference are engaging in what they call 'performance art/business project' and creating a dotcom in 24 hours. When it's done, they're going to flog it on eBay and get rich. Possibly. I'm still not clear what their product is, but they have less than nine hours left […]

Old posts. Old, old posts. Old, old, old… OK, you get the picture

June 11, 2004

I recently imported my old posts from Blogger and have been slowly going through them and categorising them. Some of them are really, really dire. Some of them are quite good. Wouldn't want to work out the ratio, though. I haven't edited them, except for one comment added to one post, but I have deleted […]

"It was this big… no, really!"

June 4, 2004

Joi's AP interview did the rounds, and eventually wound up on CNN, from which: “'And then Bunny said to Snowchyld…' oh damn, where are my fingerpuppets?”

Let's go a-MaryAnning

June 3, 2004

Excellent new blog from Rosemary Marks, perplexingly called Mary Anning. Not sure if 'to mary ann' is a verb or not, but if it is, I'd love to know what you do whilst you're mary anning. All that aside, Rosemary's blog is only six posts old, but she's hit the ground running – a good […]

Ooh, would you look at that

June 2, 2004

I started using a new stats logging service, Stat Counter the other day, to see how it stacked up against Site Meter. They both offer slightly different ways of looking at your stats, (and neither give the same figures as the actual Blogware stats), so I shall probably keep both going because I am, after […]

Joi is absolutely everywhere today. Guess no one can resist that clean-cut, boyish charm, eh?

Chocolate! Vodka! In the same glass! Drinkably!

May 26, 2004

If you remember, a while back I tried a little experiment to see if you really could mix Green & Black's 70% Organic with Wyborowa. The results were not good. It turns out, however, that my 'infusion method' was all wrong. What I should have been doing was melting the chocolate first and then adding […]

The pain! The pain! Oh my god! The pain!

May 26, 2004

Dooce suffers from an ingrown toenail. Not her ingrown toenail, mind you, but she suffers nonetheless. I feel her pain. I remember when one of my exen* had a cold – not a pretty sight. I do believe that the world did indeed end that weekend, although you may not have noticed at the time. […]

An end. Or a beginning?

May 26, 2004

I am sad to read that Gary Turner is giving up blogging. Gary's blog was amongst one of the very first that I discovered and he was one of the first bloggers to leave comments on Chocolate and Vodka. I always looked forward to reading Gary's posts, many of which made me think 'Oh damn, […]

Troy in fifteen minutes

May 20, 2004

If you can't be arsed to sit though the epic that is Troy, (hey, if it gives me the chance to oggle cute guys in skirts, consider me there!), you can always read Troy in Fifteen Minutes instead. Very funny, even if men in skirts isn't your bag. Some Island ODYSSEUS: Hey, man, what up? […]

Bits and pieces

May 17, 2004

Gary is considering giving his blog a makeover, something in a dashboard stylee. I like the look of it, myself. Joi's been reading galley proofs of Dan Gillmor's We, The Media and I find myself feeling rather jealous as it sounds like a good read. Still, at least Gillmor's going to do the sensible thing […]
