A Couple of Things
by JS
- For some reason, having daily Twitter digest updates really annoys me. Who wants to read a blog that consists of digests of low content Twitter messages? I’d turn off the feature permanently, but my OCD demands that I archive all my online prognostication in one place. So I’ve switched to weekly digests. But you don’t care, since based on statistical analysis of my logs, your’re most likely a spam bot.
- The quantity of potential paper targets for my research has exploded, and I’m stuck finishing class projects.
- Check out The Parodists Paroxysm and Whimwit.
- Compiz in Ubuntu 9.04 apparently does not like Intel graphics cards. Lame.

Thanks for the shout!
Does that mean the spam bots are coming over to my site?
Yes. Welcome to WordPress. Have you installed Akismet yet?
Akismet is a lifesaver.
I am not a spambot. And I appreciate the change to weekly twitter digests.
I’m having similar frustrations about things keeping me from the actual research I want to do. Story of my grad school career.
Twitter as a concept totally annoys me. Finally we had a medium ( the internet) where rational discussion could take place and complex thoughts exchanged and debated in depth with supporting data hyperlinked or embedded is, and of course we revert to a CB style low bandwidth perversion. I given Twitter exactly 1 years before it fades befor ethe next fad. But billions will be made and lost ….
Hating on Twitter is the new black.
btw – THAT RANT WAS JUST A SPAM BOT HAVING ITS SAY
