Face. Tissue caress.
Plagues of allergies and colds.
Haiku. (Excuse me.)

Blogger having problems
Posted in Blogs on April 24th, 2006 2 Comments »
It looks like Blogger is having some problems. According to the status page:
Monday, April 24, 2006
All publishing is broken right now. We’re working on it.
Posted by Pete at 9:45 PDT
I have a few blogs on with Blogger and I can tell you - it ain’t working right now. And there are some puzzled and annoyed [...]
I avoid writing by writing
Posted in Blogs, Work, Writing on March 19th, 2006 3 Comments »
There are many ways by which I avoid writing and one of those is by writing. This means that while I write, I don’t write what I should be writing.
This may be the biggest downside of blogs. For all the good things about them, they make it easy to fritter your time away posting about [...]
Had your fill of blogs yet?
Posted in Blogs, Communication, Web Writing, Writing on March 13th, 2006 No Comments »
Articulating a very real problem with blogging as it is today, Seth posts The noisy tragedy of the blog commons, a little something about too much of a good thing.
He is definitely describing me when he talks about the surfeit of RSS feeds. I largely ignore everything now. I rarely open Bloglines anymore, I just [...]
Musings: writing, reading, movies
Posted in Blogs, Books, Reading on March 12th, 2006 2 Comments »
It’s interesting to me that this blog is called Writelife, implying it is about writing – actually, it purports to be about writing. And yes, it is about writing even if occasionally it concerns it only in a roundabout way.
What I find intriguing is that, though not necessarily obvious, it’s really about reading. But, as [...]
Things found in my online travels
Posted in Blogs, General, Marketing on March 11th, 2006 No Comments »
I’ve no idea how I came across the following links … Well, actually I do. I was looking for a post on Scobleizer (the one about ugly design). I found it, and also a follow up to it which led me to Identity Production in a Networked Culture: Why Youth Heart MySpace which in turn [...]
What is a lens?
Posted in Blogs, Communication, Language, Writing on March 4th, 2006 No Comments »
You’ll see references to the word “lens†all over the Internet. I don’t mean lens as in a camera lens but lens as it is referred to in Web 2.0 terms, marketing and business.
What you won’t find is a definition. So, what do they mean when they refer to a “lens�
I dunno.
This question came up [...]
Checking the trackback thing again

I finally got around to getting on my other computer and uploading the patched files that, hopefully, will fix my problem with trackbacks.
We will see!

The things we look for
Posted in Blogs, General on February 13th, 2006 1 Comment »
Every now and again I take a look at my stats with a particular interest in the search terms. I’m curious about how people found my various blogs using search engines. What were they looking for that led them to me? The answer is always alarming.
I’m less interested in “how many†than I am in [...]
The post I didn’t post
Posted in Blogs, Writing on February 12th, 2006 No Comments »
You know, for a blog supposedly focused on writing I don’t seem to do an awful lot of it here, at least not lately.
Today I was going to ramble knowingly about the impact technology (computers primarily) have had on how we write. It would have been very informed and wise – after all, I’ve been [...]
