Wow, good for them.
Reddit is a social news site similar to digg, and apparently they were acquired this morning by the same company that owns Wired, Condé Nast.
Reddit is a Boston-based company that was founded by 2 guys in 2005, and has expanded since then to a whopping 4 employees. Reddit was funded [...]

Success! Sort of…

I am now officially cross posting from skyecade.net to my Vox account. Rejoice! Gone are the days of my empty Vox blog.
I also wanted to cross post to a Livejournal blog, mostly because I really like the LJ community. Alas, the Livejournal Crossposter plug-in doesn’t work for me. I believe it has [...]

Taillights Fade – Buffalo Tom
Sister can you hear me now
The ringing in your ears
I’m down on the ground
My luck’s been dry for years
I’m lost in the dark
And I feel like a dinosaur
Broken face and broken hands
I’m a broken man
I’ve hit the wall
I’m about to fall
But I’m closing in on it
I feel so weak
On a losing [...]

My Myspace account

Okay, I sucked it up and made a myspace account this week. Check it out. I’m not gonna lie to ya, I felt really dirty doing it. Myspace could be the ugliest, cheesiest website on the net today, and yet, about an hour into creating my special little place, I actually started to have [...]

Internet Explorer 7 has been out for about a week now and my head is already spinning. For those of you who are not using this <sarcasm>fabulous</sarcasm> piece of software and can’t see the horrible mess my website has become, have a look for yourself. Isn’t it fantastic?. As you can see, the lists in [...]

Porchlight – Buffalo Tom
The fire blazed away
The kitchen porch was all that remained
And I’m out here alone – beat up and pissed
Until this very day
That old hotel rang back in fuzzy time
And I was ravaged to the bone
Your voice got smaller ’til I realized
It was gone
I listened to Buffalo Tom this morning for the first [...]

Escape from the World of Warcrack

I’m one of the lucky ones. You see, I have a severe case of gaming A.D.D. Others, however, are not so lucky. But let’s not get ahead of ourselves.
I played World of Warcraft for over a year. Night after night I would play with my friends, exploring the vast lands of Azeroth with thousands of [...]

I have to say, Tracksy.com is a pretty slick website. I heard about it on an episode of commandN and they had had nothing but good things to say about it. At first glance, it seems to be very similar to Google Analytics in that they both offer free web statistics for you website (or [...]

I’m not a big South Park fan, but this is soooo funny. Especially if you play WoW. Channa sent me a link to this a couple of days ago. THANKS CHANNA!
Enjoy.

I was going to blog from the ship, but I decided against it due to the hefty price tag. Even without blogging I managed to rack up $50 in internet charges. Blah!
The cruise was a blast and Bermuda is absolutely gorgeous. There’s more than just beauty there though, it’s an extremely fascinating country. Did [...]
