  • Comment Spam #2

    In response to the comments/suggestions made by Will and Kris on yesterday’s post: The thing I don’t like about the CAPTCHA technique is that it’s impossible to have a good balance between form and function. That is to say, if it works at peak efficiency, then it’s an accessibility nightmare. If it works at peak…

  • Comment Spam

    Holy fuck. Kris, what has your blog done to me? In the past couple of weeks (ever since we started talking about comment spam on your blog), I’ve gotten more comment spam on my blog than I ever have in the past five years! Spammers must die. I really need to update my site. I…

  • Avast!

    Ahoy, me hearties! Today be International Talk Like A Pirate Day! ‘Tis also a FSM holiday, so grab a wench and quaff some grog, ye scallywags!

  • AEA Wrap Up

    I spent today at An Event Apart. There’s no way I could possibly describe everything, so I’ll just list some highlights. Method Arts threw a party last night where Kris and I got free T-shirts. Beer is still gross. During the conference, I sat next to Pete LePage, the Product Manager of the Developer Division…

  • Geek-Gasm

    Wow. That’s all I can say right now. As you may know, I’m headed over to Seattle this weekend because on Monday, I will be attending AEA. At the end of the day, the presenters will be critiquing some of the sites created by the attendees. They sent out a “call for submissions” e-mail, to…

  • Adventures with Emily

    Today, Emily, Morah and I ran some (mostly) wedding-related errands. It was all pretty ho-hum and normal, but as we’ve learned, no day with Emily is ever that ho-hum. After we picked up my wedding ring and a few other things for which we hadn’t gone to the mall (why is it so hard to…

  • Five Years Later

    The terrorists are winning. I want that printed in large, block letters on the front of a t-shirt so I can wear it through airport security whenever I fly. As you well know, today marks five years since nineteen terrorists flew two commercial airliners into the World Trade Center towers in New York, one into…

  • Vanished

    I’ve been meaning to post this all week, and now it’s Friday and I’m “back posting” this to Thursday. Man, I sure know how to procrastinate. I’ve been watching most of the new FOX shows and, while I like what I’ve seen overall, one show just isn’t doing it for me. That show is Vanished.…

  • An Event Apart

    Remember back in February when A List Apart published something I wrote and linked to my site? Yeah, we all remember that. And it was pretty cool. Well, the same folks who run A List Apart, also run An Event Apart. And, hold on to your butts, I’m going to AEA in September. My work…

  • On A Motherfucking Plane

    Ready for more Snakes on a Plane goodness? I can’t believe I forgot to mention the funniest part of the entire movie; the crappy music video during the credits! Even though you can watch it on YouTube, you should still go see it on the big screen. I wish I could remember how Kris described…
