The new server has arrived at Pyra HQ. It proves that users are willing to support web applications. And this picture proves that all of my co-pyra-workers are nuts.
CNET.com: Linux to star on silver screen: "The film promises to be a Linux lover's dream, featuring shots of the Gnome desktop, consulting work by Linux leaders, and cameos by at least one of the Linux movement's geekiest idols." Whenever you see "real-world" technology in a movie, it's always this weird alternate-universe technology. Usually with HUGE UI elements. Like a big red box that takes up an entire monitor flashing ACCESS DENIED. or in Independence Day: uploading virus. Maybe this movie will get it right.
I sure have been swearing a lot lately. I'm not mad. just swearing.

wired news: Dot-Com Begs for Bucks: "So Pyra, which has kept its service free of ads, is turning to its members in the hope that users will be grateful enough to cough up a few dollars to keep it going."

hmm, I stand corrected. something new is happening at Blogger. (if you like this site or any of the thousands powered by Blogger, consider helping out. and thank you!)
the new year doesn't feel like a new start or a new beginning to me. (with the exception of the year I moved to California around this time.) it feels like more of the same. spring always feels like a new beginning. when the weather changes, and flowers and trees that used to be dead start to wake up, the world seems full of new life. I'm going to celebrate my new year in a few months.
I spent some time at the coast today. It was such a beautiful day...a wonderful way to start the year. I took a whole roll of film as skp and I watched some big waves. I also took some digital photos at Bodega Head.
