- Found on Slyck via Politech, here is a story considering what the result might be if the RIAA and company actually go bankrupt and disappear as a result of people sharing music with one another.

In fact, music would probably improve so much it would eventually be looked back at as a tremendously favorable improvement. |

- I've spent a fair bit of time today working on the K-Collector client for MovableType. We tried implementing a client about 6 months ago but it was very brittle and, ultimately, even I couldn't write instructions for how to install it on a new server. This didn't seem like a good way forward with MT Pro and Typepad around the cornern. Our new approach we're much happier with. It only requires 1 change (adding 1 line) to an existing MT template, 1 perl module (HTML:: |

- Now I can drag and drop pieces on the board. When dropped the piece is centered properly in the square. So I can almost play a game of chess with myself: Next step is to look again at the interfaces to gnuchess, phalanx, icc, etc. and prepare to integrate with real players and engines. |

- Out of the frying pan and into the fire. Just as my knee was recovering enough to enable Raven to play with me again, she embarked on a new direction with her work and with the SlaveCam site, which required a lot of time investment in setting up a lot of new, unfamiliar tech. Cameras, cables, encoders, Flash, streaming USB, lighting, etc. She asked me to help with all the setup because I'm a tech boy, and being the obsessive-compulsive problem solver that I am, I took the ball and ran with it. I was constantly thinking about how to improve the setup. |
