Safari needs reinstalled….?
Seriously? WTF? Just had this happen when trying to click on See Larger Image of a book cover in Amazon. I have to create a new category for this .WTFMate? Click on the image to get a better look.

(non) Instant Messaging
Yahoo! Instant Messaging recently (from my perspective) had a nearly 2 hour outage. This has brought back a problem we’ve had here a number of times in that we – de facto – standardized on YIM for internal messaging. I’m now trying to encourage everyone (again) to use IRC on our (sort of private) IRC […]

(de)Paginate!
For all the retards out there who design news site software, get rid of the damned pagination in your articles. It severely pisses me off and makes it much harder to read your articles. It also makes NO sense on the web! Web browsers have scroll bars for a REASON. Lists of articles YES go […]

Not really new, but thanks anyway Network World.
It always amazes me how slow mass media is, even mass media targeted at tech’s. Network World today posted this article on spammers using auto-responders to get their crap out. I don’t know about anyone else, but I sure as heck have seen that before.

Anti-Spam, or, Anti-Delivery…
Yahoo! is getting to be very aggressive against spam. Problem is we can’t deliver ANYTHING for about the past 6 days because we can’t get a dialog with them as to 1) why they’re unblocking and 2) they won’t unblock. I think ultimately here we’ll be forced to discontinue most or all forwarding services if […]
