Twitter-Speak at BearHugCamp
After a fairly testy exchange at BearHugCamp this morning among Steve Gillmor, Dustin Sallings (twitterspy and IdentiSpy bot creator), a few audience members and the guys at Twitter, Alex Payne actually gave a very clear statement about the lengths to which Twitter was willing to go to aide developers in building upon and extending Twitter.… Continue reading Twitter-Speak at BearHugCamp
XMPP and Google Apps for Domains
Jesus, my head hurts. I setup xmpppy on my box, thinking I could quickly set up a bot to run as one of my Google Apps for Domains users.

Firefox 3 Display Bugs?
I’ve installed Firefox 3, and it looks like they may have rushed it out the door a bit. I’m seeing some sloppy display bugs that are kind of annoying. I’m running Windows XP Pro SP3.

But it’s an amazing playlist, so here it is: Peaches In Regalia, Hot Rats (1969) Camarillo Brillo, Over-Nite Sensation (1973)… Continue reading Nick’s Zappa Playlist
Unfortunate Coplacement of the Day
Missing blog posts recovered
Part of the nightmare I went through while experimenting with WP-o-matic (no link) was that I accidentally deleted about 12 posts from my blog. Nothing earth-shattering, of course, but I just found an old database backup and recovered those posts. It was a real PITA, though, because the backup was from when I was running… Continue reading Missing blog posts recovered
