August 27, 1999Ok, you have to read this - head transplants. Yep.
August 26, 1999Read about the system the could have been what the WWW has become. Xanadu. Pretty interesting reading. You can get the source code at http://www.udanax.com/, there is also an excellent 'Philosophy and Motivation' section at the end of the page, with some great links. Read them. Now. Go. The press is getting antsy for Handspring to release its new Product! You can read a article about Donna Dubinsky, or hear why you should hold off buying a new PDA untill Handspring releases its new PDA. More tasty bits of news about Lord of the Rings at Ain't it cool news.
August 22, 1999Another interesting story at Wired News about Slashdot and the new face of Journalism. Sister's of Mercy tickets go on sale tomorrow! Playing at the Docks on the 29th. $35. Check ticketmaster for more details. If any of you missed Tom Waits on Monday and Tuesday night, you really did miss an excellent event. Here is a little something I thought we could all use "Coping with Stress - 18 Tips for Dealing with STRESS and TENSION".
August 22, 1999Movie news - Ender's Game by O.S. Card. Nice site, has some info from Card, and the first bit of the screenplay. Very cool. Hope they do a good job of it... PDA news - new pda - looks pretty cool - cheep, voice recording, nice colour.. check it out. For all of you who are waiting for photos of the wedding - they are coming!. Should be here by the end of the week.
August 20, 1999Ah, another weekend has come to pass. And, guess what, I'm still tired. But really, why change a good thing, eh?
August 18, 1999Is it the end of the dot com company's that raise insane amounts at their IPO's without any earnings? Could be, according to this article at the Red Herring.
August 16, 1999Well, have you heard about Homeworld? No? Well, it's a game that looks like a Chris Foss picture (you should check it out. Lots of great scans of his stuff. I love Chris Foss' work). Huge Space Battles, Lasers flashing across the sky, woo! And for the oldsters amongst us, Yes is doing the music. Hard to believe, but true. This masterpiece will be shipping in September. Don't walk, run to your local store and buy it! Another cool new space technology! And it is sort of like a balloon too! Plasma 'bubble' drive... Very cool Is the Almighty a Mac User? I don't know, but s/he/it seems to be helping on the PR front! Ok, why is everyone but me getting wealthy? I know thats a pretty damn lame thing to say, but when you look at things like Red Hat and the HUGE amount of cash they have come into, I can't help but get depressed. How do I get a piece of that action?! But really, power to them for doing such a great job, and demonstrating that being involved in Open Source Software can be rewarding! Looking for some Anti-Matter? NASA is, and they have the balloon to prove it!
August 13, 1999You can check to see if I'm online through AIM, my screen name is 'Hyakugei'. Finally adding something to the Stuff section! A little essay/photo montage of a weekend up at my cottage with a bunch of my friends. Pretty funny. What happened to that old computer? And how do i get rid of it? Interesting letter by Ilya Prigogine about "the networked society". Very funny Y2K nonofficial policy statement.
August 10, 1999Today is Alfred Hitchcock's 100 Birthday. If he were alive. A nice tribute to his work can be read here. Ok, put down what you are doing and read this article. Its about a group of hackers that did a security audit of the internet (36x10e6 ips checked). Really good article, good anecdotes, worthwhile reading. Thank the Gods its the weekend! What a hell week. I hope all of you had a better week then me, really. I have managed to finally get my ADSL working, however, I've not had any time to play with it, so its been a bit of a drag. Will do some work over the weekend, so till then, take care!
August 10, 1999Can you believe it?! Kansas bars evolution from classroom. I thought all this shit was over and done with. I have to say that it kind of scares me that there are enough people to make this kind of shit stick. Hummm - Sega fired the COO of Sega America just a month before the launch of Dreamcast. Ever wonder about the difference between non geek and geek girls? Read this. "My first PDA". Still here, just busy on other stuff, but dont worry, I will be getting back into the swing of things soon, I promise!

Ok, so there are some articles i've looked at today that I just have to share with ya all... Hey! I'm back! Whew, what a vacation! Like most folks, I now need some time to recover from it. Ah well. News is going to be a bit skimpy for the next few days as I get the computer at home all hooked up, and as I am still trying to catch up on my sleep! Thanks for dropping by!
