Tweaking the ol site...

I just added something that has been up and running on my site for a while. A rss feed for comments so that if you are using something like SharpReader you can read all the lastest stuff. I use this mostly for when people add comments to stories that are not in the last post or two. This is very good if the top seems to be a hot one. I also added some links to the main page (scroll down a bit and on the left...). Just some blogs that I check out. I am trying to cut back the amount of time I spend not interacting with real people, but it's hard.

On a different topic, email is pissing me off. I know that everyone has a friend or dozen that sends them dumb chain letters all the time with things like "if you send this to 8 people and than hit ctrl-8 something really cool will happen! I didn't believe it but it's true!!!" Grrr... I keep on fighting the urge to mark it as spam with my filter, but I can't really do that 'cause it's my friend. Well, I can't do it yet. As it is I am getting 15-20 spam a day, so what's one more? Well, that's exactly what it is: one more. But I think that this will just go back to Peter's idea about requiring a licence to use the internet.

Just track down that "You must forward this to 6,000,000,000 people or something very nasty will happen to your dog" email and send it back to them everytime they forward you something..

Or you could just make a filter for each forward, since at most there's got to be like what? 50 of them? (I wonder if SpamAssassin has something for that..)

Sorry, I'm just a little hyper right now ...

hahaha... I am glad that you are excited Karen. I check out your page every once and a while (you don't update it *too* much), and I didn't know how public you wanted to make your site to your friends.

It's just that some people like to remain anonymous on the web...

I know I don't update too often, I usually like writing about, well, stuff. And sometimes that stuff takes brain power. And sometimes I don't have that brain power. So I don't write.

I'm trying to get over that and write just a little bit every day. I think it's a good habit to get into.
