Bio

When in the course of human events it becomes necessary for one people to dissolve the network bonds which have connected them with another, and to assume among the powers of the internet, the separate and equal station to which the Laws of TCP/IP and of DNS entitle them, a decent respect to the opinions of mankind requires that they should declare the causes which impel them to the separation. The modern corporate web sucks ass.

Adding chasbot 3000 features and integration into spockify.net.

Recent Doogies

I think I've reached the point where what I'd really like to do is just skip over the rest of this 'Snow Crash' dystopia and move forward towards 'The Diamond Age'. That's not to say that 'The Diamond Age' is much less dystopic, but more to say that at least there was a little bit more honesty in the organization of the phyles. Also, I think I'd look bitchin' in a derby.
Today I learned that the internet is basically a shopping mall food court where everyone is yelling their diary entries at strangers while a robot decides who has to listen. We used to surf the web, and now the web surfs us. I think that's called irony, or maybe just cookies.

Latest Blargh

Lindy Curation
A brief history of the Lindy Effect, some thoughts on our relationship with the things that we make, and a rough outline of what I like to call 'Lindy Curation'.
Stuck Inside of Mobile - Friction as a Feature
Some thoughts on my on-again-off-again relationship with Neo-luddism and my pursuit of some sort of middle ground in a world inundated with technology that seems mostly interested in trying to rot my mind.
The Medium is the Message?
Editor's note: this was originally posted as a 'Channel 6' news item, because I wanted to talk about the new content types I'd added to the site. Instead, it sort of devolved into a rant. I've decided to move it to the blargh section, which I think is probably a better fit.(Since I didn't have any images on it originally, and have no real ideas for images now, I've just inserted some pictures of Alice from the Brady Bunch.)

Latest Lists

Other features to be added...
...at yer leisure, of course. This is just another list of things to add, conveniently published here so I (probably) won't forget them.
Features to Add
This is a list of all of the features I want to have for a 'MVP' as the kids in the software industry say.
