The Move to Allston

The monthly game night that John Brigham and I organize at True Grounds was written up in a Boston Metro article on August 24 titled "Hottest Coffee Shops." For some reason the article highlights the Star Wars game that someone brought to the July game night. Just for the record, there are a ...

New Layout
I was poking around a bunch of WordPress themes last night and re-stumbled into Chyetanya Kunte's "plain vanilla" theme. I bookmarked it several weeks ago but never had a chance to do anything with it until a late night tinkering session last night. I'm also using Dan Benjamin's image rotator script as described ...

Boston Globe Article Corrections
Update June 27, 2005: Pete Caputa wrote a related blog entry titled "Bloggers vs Journalists: Agendas."
A couple weeks ago Pete Caputa introduced me to a reporter who was working on a "getting paid to blog" story for the Boston Globe. Thanks, Pete! (That's sincere despite my rant throughout the rest of this entry.)
