A week literally crafted by demons from Hell


On Monday the problems with the brakes on my car got bad enough that I would need to take it in for service, and a new rattling noise developed that sounded like the front left tire was going to fall off. It was "billing" day and the Windows computer processing invoices froze up at [...]

Props to the P-I for embracing conversation technologies


It wasn't too long ago that I took an inventory of the quality of public dialogue in Richmond, and in doing so, sprinkled in some cynicism about the role played and limitations imposed by the Palladium-Item in that measuring. A bit later I brought the cynicism up a notch (or, down a rung?) in [...]

TechTalk on blogging, The Daily Nightly


Coming up this Thursday, I'll be presenting a TechTalk seminar in Richmond on "A Newcomer's Guide to Blogging." I thought those of you who read here, especially other bloggers, may be interested in attending and contributing - please come if you are!
Related, I think it's important to note that NBC Nightly News has enabled [...]

Kristol Pieing, Dialogue Redux

Back in May I blogged about how blogs are different from the conventional process of putting up content on a website. I have a similar sentiment about the up-and-coming phenomenon of podcasting: people have been putting sound clips on the web for [...]

Letters from Robert C. Hardie


From 1962 to 1965, well before I was born, my father served in the U.S. Army. Most of his time was in Germany based at Bad Aibling Station, a military intelligence listening post, which was closed in 2002. During this time he wrote many letters and postcards to my grandparents and other family [...]

No error occurred


I was working hard on a project today and this error window came up. It pretty much describes the kind of month I'm having. Philosophically interesting and outrageously frustrating at the same time.

Go Small Indy Websites, Go


As a part of running a website hosting company, I get to watch a lot of interesting uses of the web go by, especially the one- or two-person operations and personal websites that we host.
