So. Blog.
Yeah. I got my blog working. A few days ago, I messed around with it, trying to make it connect to shinyplasticbag.com properly so I could have a nice, real blog. But it didn’t work right, so I gave up. I then spent the evening programming something similar in VB, and then got bored of it. So I decided to give Blogger another chance, and I managed to get it working. Hurrah for me.
Anyway, it’s the long weekend, but I’m working. I’m actually on my lunch break right now. Work sucks, but it’s going well today. I’m working at more than twice my usual speed for some reason. I wonder how much I can get done in one day?
In other news, I am presently enamoured of Internet Time. It’s an idea being peddled by Swatch, the watchmakers. It’s timezone free, the same time everywhere. As I write this, it’s (oddly enough) @666. You see, instead of being divided into 24 hours, the day is divided into 1000 .beats (yes, that’s dot-beats), each of which is something like 86 seconds long. Anyway, I rather like the idea. You can get desktop Internet Time Clocks and stuff at the website. Very cool.
Speaking of time, this month’s Scientific American is really great. The entire issue is about time itself, and that’s where I found out about Internet Time. It’s very cool, and definitely worth buying.
Ack. I have to go back to work soon. Life sucks. But at least I have my Blogger. =)
PS: Blogger has disappointed me. I was under the impression that one didn’t have to worry about HTML that much with it. But the post editor doesn’t do anything for you! I thought, at the very least, it would insert the <p> tags for me. Sigh. Nothing is easy. Maybe I should write that program after all.
PPS: For some reason, it’s inserting the previously mentioned <p> tags by itself. ARG.
