I’m over on Mastodon
For those few of you who also follow my Twitter account you may have noticed a severe drop off in my participation on that site. The overall quality of interaction there, along with the aggressively poor behavior of the owner has been enough of a prompt for me to step away from it to a...

Twitter went private, then it got weird.

It’s deeply weird to return to what was once called “internet time.” Internet time was what we called the era where brand new web pages or services would pop up and get massively popular...

Why are so many folks compelled by web3?
I think this describes it well, by Robin Rendle: The future feels like it’s already owned by Google or Facebook or some other enormous corporate interest, so I can understand that impulse to create something new like web3 because of that.

Squished expression and the President of the United States
Is Trump’s Twitter a Public Forum and the Limits of the Law by Eric Segall has me thinking quite a a bit about this question: WHAT IS TWITTER? I think about the Presidential Records Act and what it says about the things the President does in his official capacity. I think about the fact that...

In 200 years someone will wonder what the heck AIM was.
In 2003 I blogged this to AOL Journals: I once had a fellow student give me this aphorism which i really like: the more competencies you have, the more deviancies you are allowed. blogging via im makes it easy to blog and not get really distracted into writing something good. the downside is that it...

My Open Source Report Card

Joe’s behavior is quite similar to pdokas‘s but pdokas spends more of their time commenting on issues. It would also be impossible to...
