Holiday Greetings, etc.

Jul 04, 2004 11:21

Something mechanical involving my phone/DSL line kept me offline for the past few days. I apologize for my lack of commentary on everyone's recent entries. It's such a relief to have access again, though the enforced Internet holiday definitely helped me focus on some other things I have going on right now--at least once I got over the twitching ( Read more... )

I'm curious about the Google email account. Who gets the invites?

They're expanding the service "virally." ("Viral" is such a 1999 dot-boom buzzword. I'm having flashbacks. Oy.) Once you get an account, you can invite 6 people. They probably started with employees and friends of employees, but it's expanded to the entire Bay Area software community at this point. It's actually a pretty smart way of ramping up the mail load, since they can deal with problems as they arise without getting hit by too much volume all at once. (Can you tell I know people who work there?)

Anyway, if you want an account, let me know.

And your list-making idea sounds incredible--exactly something I'd need. I was desperately looking for a description of the locater spell a while back and couldn't find anything, so I went with the very vague. I'd love to see what you pick out.

Cool! If other people will find it useful, I'll start working posts up--probably after I finish S1 in a few days. Then the whole world can marvel at my freakish anal

You do know the cuteness of the doggie antlers is negated by the evil glowing eyes? ;)

I'll look forward to your thoughts on Season 1 of Buffy. It's still my least favorite season. Not that I think it's bad, it's just somewhat blah for me.

Darn it! You picked up on his Satanic properties. Now he'll have to put a hex on you.

If I had to rank all of the seasons, S1 would definitely fare poorly when compared to the others. But I'm finding a lot to love on rewatching, despite the tragic (tragic!) lack of Spike. It's the first time I've seen it since seeing S6 and S7 and I definitely have a new perspective now.
