I think the fact that I sometimes find myself up until 3 in the morning for no really good reason is an indicator that I’m undeniably a night owl. I like staying up late, but this is ridiculous.

Yup, the script still runs.
Jenny I love you!
Free as Air, Free as Water, Free as Knowledge: is my favorite link to quote people these days. I like especially the references to Ben Franklin. How do we resolve the problem of fair use in a market driven world? Dan Gillmor’s latest column, which calls for people to get active on the issue of fair use, brought the speech once again to mind. I also posted this to MetaFilter.
The quote in the new header is from Confucius. Much wisdom in the Analects.
We walk a path. We seek wisdom.
I have gained no wisdom today.
Perhaps tomorrow.
I have lots of JavaScript experience.
Amazingly, this makes me valuable in some ways. I had no idea that people would tip for it. I got my first Tip the other day through the lab. Is my Lab now a commercial site? Or am I just a busker – some modern day mendicant poet of JavaScript?
Hmmm.
Current listening material: Jurassic 5, Prince, Christina.
Latest reading: The Big U, by Neal Stephenson. The Big U is a remarkable book, not the least of which for being about the darkest comedy I’ve ever experienced. Savage in some parts, while retaining an odd charm. Apparently the author did not really wish it to come back into print, considering it too much a first novel. My favorite Neal Stephenson remains: The Diamond Age.
Rosie O’Donnell On Math. Do people really think that computers mean we don’t have to know math? That the advent of electronics and digital logic means mankind can sit back and coast?
A real pity.
The very talented Deb Shadoviz wrote this book about Adobe GoLive called The GoLive 5 Bible, and she used a quote of mine in the chapter on CSS. So you should check it out next time you’re in the web design section of your local bookstore, or you can buy it from trusty old Amazon.
Inspired from a posting to DigitalEve SanDiego… I dredge up a wonderful speech from Bruce Sterling on “Wooing the Muse of the Odd” – it’s about pushing at boundaries and being unique. Design is not about limitations. It’s about possibility.
