Re: My Posts

Yesterday I was linked to another WordPress blog. After looking through it I found a post that I posted the same day. Naturally, I left a comment on it. I was angry that it was posted without my permission or anything. Okay, I can understand that it might be difficult to get a hold of me sometimes, but at least link back to me.

Then I found myself a link to Google’s Blogsearch. The site iPodFans.org had been taking my posts, too, but they had been respectful and linked back to me. This morning, though, I am to find that the site has been taken down.

Maybe I’m just complaining like I do from time to time. But if you want to repost something of mine, please either link back to me, or my site, or e-mail me before doing so, asking if it’s alright. Usually, I won’t care really, just ask my permission.

For the Soul

Here’s a new blog for all you blog readers. Anthology of the Human Soul is a blog that shares stories from people of little experiences that touch the heart. You can even submit your own story anonymously to the admin. It’s brand new, so they don’t have much to read yet, but surely it’ll pick up over time.

Go check it out.

Podcast [might be sooner than you think!]

[No Image Needed]

I’m sure some of you are tired of waiting for my very first podcast, and I’m happy to quickly announce that there will be one very very soon I feel. So, please stay tuned, and you’ll be rewarded.

Zuckerberg and Facebook Connect

Zuckerberg was up on stage today, talking about social media giant, Facebook. Here’s all that I really caught from the webcast. [or just what I really cared to listen to]

- In regards to Apps: they’re going to be less annoying!

- There’s a new layout to Facebook. I haven’t heard too much good out of that, but, like Myspace, you can revert back to the old layout.

- Facebook Connect!

Facebook Connect seems to be quite interesting, actually. From what I understand it’s similar to OpenID, giving users the ability to log into a site using one identity instead of creating a new ID for each site you go onto. Facebook Connect is nifty in that it uses your Facebook security settings, so that people who you don’t want to see you, won’t. Also, it means that friends can see some of your activity, say…if you post a comment on your favorite blog [what? you mean this one? aw, how sweet, but there's no WordPress support yet *sadface*] your friends could then see that lovely comment in their News Feed.

Sounds like fun? It sure does! But first, I’m gonna check my Myspace, looks like I still have more friends on there.

Second WordPress Post! [a ramble]

ZoMg!1!! WoRdPrEsS!!1!

Ah, my second WordPress post. I’ve gotten quite familiar with this site, although I’ve been distracted most of my day today. Needless to say, my iPhone 3G has finally gotten to the imfamous 20% mark [in the red, if you will], and it’s reporting to me that it has received over 127 MB over EDGE. I somehow don’t think that that is enough.

Tomorrow [this being written at 1am, so essentially today], for me, is another lovely day in the wonderful world of retail. I think I’ll be home mid-afternoon, which could be good so that I might actually produce my podcast finally…however I might do that with WordPress, I’m not 100% sure, but I’m bound to find out the long way [just like I found out about WordPress's greatness...the long way].

In the event that you haven’t seen all of my posts either here or on twitter, I’ve recently upgraded to Leopard on my, at least, 1.5 year old MacBook [which I like to call the MacTop, cause I prefer the term laptop over notebook since I use notebooks regularly to collect my thoughts] and I absolutely am loving it, as any Mac nerd would. The only problems I’ve had is that it’s crashed twice on me, and every time I reboot it, Spotlight seems to want to index the drive all over again, thus killing my CPU. Maybe rebooting it without forcing it to shut down could fix that. Then again, I may have not updated recently.

We’ll see how tomorrow goes…you shall hear from me later [haha, literally]

WordPress on the iPhone

I guess you can tell that I’ve switched over to wordpress. I’ve practically only done it because blogger didn’t seem to care that that it was behind in developing for the iPhone. It’s not that I really have that much to blog from outside my office, but I enjoy having the mobility option that WordPress now gives me. I’ll be transferring my blog over sooner or later. Until then, I’m SpecialKolin.
