What a Day

  • Woke up at 4.30 in the morning to the sound of things falling off my desk. Found out later that it was an Earthquake
  • Sometime in the afternoon, wind and rain knocked out the power for an hour.
  • The power knockout killed my hard drive.

Thank god for backups.

Muxtape

Muxtape: Brilliant idea. Need to share a playlist with your friend? Create an account, upload and you are on your way. It’s easy to use and looks just way too nice.

Google has answers

Google has the answer to life the universe and everything, and the number of horns on a unicorn [via PC World]

Constant

I have a feeling that the pick-up line of my generation is going to be “will you be my constant”

Netvibes Ginger

Netvibes just updated my account to Ginger and it is beautiful. What is Netvibes? Netvibes:

  • Helps you manage your digital life and share it with your friends
  • Brings all your favorite MySpace, Digg, YouTube, Gmail, Flickr, eBay, del.icio.us accounts – you name it (no, really, you can rename our entire site) – together on your own personal Netvibes page
  • Share with your friends or colleague your favorite modules
  • 100% customizable – no ads, no logos, no corporate control

Netvibes uses RSS Feeds to read content from other sites and lets you manage everything in one spot. It’s perfect when you don’t have time to go to 20 websites every morning to read whos saying what. With the ginger release, netvibes just got a whole lot cleaner and easier. Still not convinced? Check out some of their videos.

Dreamhost does it again

They never cease to surprise me. What's worse is that they never seem sincere in their apologies, and they never know when to draw the line between humor and professionalism.

Ack. Through a COMPLETE bumbling on our part, we've accidentally attempted to charge you for the ENTIRE year of 2008 (and probably 2009!) ALREADY (it was all due to a fat finger)!

We're really really realllly embarassed about this, but you have nothing to worry about. Please ignore any confusing billing messages you may have received recently; we've already removed all those bum future charges on your account (#366289) and fixed everything up.

Thank you very very much for your patience with this.. we PROMISE this won't happen again. There's no need to reply to this message unless of course you have any other questions at all!

Sincerely, The Foolish DreamHost Billing Team!

 

Here to there

Google knows how to get you from here to there and also from anywhere to somewhere and even from start to finish. Who knew, it can also get you from up to down.

My Next Computer

Anyone feeling generous enough to buy me a new mac ?

Times Square confetti

The confetti that will float down on Times Square this New Year’s Eve can have your message on it. For the first time ever, anyone who visits the Times Square Information Center or visits the Wishing Wall Online website can get a message printed on a piece of the multicolored confetti
