Blogging apps for the iPhone
I don't have an iPhone, and I'm definitely not in the market for one at this time. I want to use my phone a good while longer so that I'm not unnecessarily contributing to the problem of electronic waste. Still, if I ever get one, I might have to look into this:

Disabling comments from anonymous posters
Well, the "open the LJ to non LJ folks" experiment didn't work. I've been getting all kinds of weird posts (including one exceedingly bizarre and incoherent rant mentioning Thurgood Marshall from someone in Loganville, GA - yes, I did an IP trace). I mostly did it to try to make things more accessible to Scott, but you might just have to log in to ( Read more... ) -
Opening the doors
For ages I've limited commenting here to registered LJ users only because I didn't want web-crawling spam robots to post ads in my journal the way I've seen happen with blogs. However, I miss hearing from my non-LJ using friends here, so I'm opening the doors. You are now able to comment here whether you have an LJ or not. If I start getting spam ( Read more... ) -
Whose Space?
An overview of MySpace (source: MetaFilter):
What News Corp doesn't want you to know about MySpace
For the record, I don't have a MySpace account, and don't plan to get one.

My first attempt at wine-ing
I've done movie reviews, music reviews, and game reviews, but this is my very first attempt at a wine review. It's just a short little wisp of a thing, but I said as much as I had to say, and no more.
Please be kind: I watch Andrea Immer's Simply Wine all the time, and have several books on the subject (Wine 101, the Windows on the World Complete ( Read more... ) -

Firefox
So, I'm trying out Firefox, Mozilla.org's next generation browser. So far it's been speedy, user-friendly, and smooth as silk. As in, I uninstalled Mozilla two hours after using it. As in, it's become my default browser, and it's only on version 0.8 ( Read more... ) -
More on Blogs compared to LiveJournals
It seems as though my definition of blogging was on the mark. I found this link to The 2004 Bloggies, and while perusing it, found this link to an entry detailing the goals and nature of a good blog. I trusted my own interpretation, but validation is always nice, and it confirms that I made the right choice for what I wanted to accomplish at this ( Read more... ) -
The Blog and the LiveJournal
I have never had a blog, and I can't seem to find a site that really compares and contrasts Blogger with LiveJournal, as far as features and how they actually work. For example, do they have something like a Friends list, that neatly compiles posts from various users and communities all on one cozy page, or do they just have to keep clicking those ( Read more... ) -
Whew
No company planned for this weekend, thank goodness. Three weekends in a row with that kind of pacing is a little much for us, considering I'm a borderline extrovert and my husband is a very high introvert.
Happee me! A new LJ friend, and even better, one from RL, too. *waves*When two different people mention Neil Gaiman in one day, it must be ( Read more... )
