Howard Dean’s new thing … an ugly website
Howard Dean launched his new project today, Democracy for America. I've spent about 15 seconds on the website. It's about all I can give it right now. What an amazing eyesore of a website. As a Dean supporter during his campaign, I was interested to see what he'd be up to next. ...
Photos from the South by Southwest Interactive Festival
I borrowed Michael's camera to take a few photographs while I was in Austin for SXSWi. The collection is in my photo album over at capricious.org. The unofficial SXSW blog has a lot of photos, too.
Audio blog tidbits from the South by Southwest Interactive Festival
I didn't do much with the audio blogging thing (1, 2, 3) like I had thought I might do the past few days. A couple people recorded something Monday, late at night on the rainy streets of Austin. I was welcomed back to Boston tonight with a bunch of snow. Makes me ...
I approve this message
My pal Sarah endorses this idea; but maybe she's just being nice. Since Zippy (my notebook computer) is not feeling well enough to attend SXSW, I thought I'd do some audio blogging with my mostly-as-yet-unused audblog account. So, I was thinking of asking people to blather on for up to 2 minutes ...
A simple test: no email
It's probably not the end of the world. But then again, logic doesn't always feel relevant. Dreamhost seems to be having some problems today so my email has been down for a while. I've read mixed reviews about their web hosting service but until today I can't even remember the last time ...
Halcyon’s tidbits on the big deal with blogging
John "Halcyon" Styn wrote a mini-essay today about blogging and what it means to him. Whenever I hear/read someone talk about weblogs and blogging, the first thing that comes to mind is "blah blah blah"; but this one is good! I can relate to what he's saying. Being a blogger doesn’t mean you use ......

South by Southwest, host to this month's music, film and interactive festivals in Austin, set up a community blog on March 5th for Interactive Festival participants. It's using the weblog publishing system from InkNoise. There's an RSS feed, too.
Sondre Lerche’s new album and a concert in Boston in May
This is an alert to friends, aquintances and whomever else passes by my website. You've got plans in May at the Paradise Rock Club in Boston the evening of Tuesday, May 4th. My favorite Norwegian singer-songwriter, Sondre Lerche, is headlining a tour in support of his new album, Two Way Monologue that was ...
Howard Dean and John Kerry conspire in Washington D.C. today
John Kerry's blog has a photo of Kerry and Howard Dean holding their hands up in the air during Governor Dean's stop in Washington D.C. today. There's no mention of this visit on Dean's weblog. Oops. I originally wrote that this was in Boston. It's in Washington, D.C.
Let’s do the time warp again
Matt is boycotting Lockergnome because they are taking a step back to the mid-1990s with the HTML code on the Lockergnome.com website, foregoing standards such as CSS for layout. I always got the impression that Lockergnome's content was intended for tech hobbyists -- not so much for people who work for a living ...
ee cummings
A favorite poem by a favorite poet. "if strangers meet" - ee cummings if strangers meet life begins- not poor not rich (only aware) kind neither nor cruel (only complete) i not not you not possible; only truthful -truthfully,once if strangers(who deep our most are selves)touch: forever (and so to dark)
The Lost Girls
(I found this poem on a friend's Live Journal.) Linda Hogan, "The Lost Girls" I don't remember when the girl of myself turned her back and walked away, that girl whose thin arms once held this body and refused to work too hard or listen in school, said the hell then and turned, that dark...
