The hardest part is the waiting. I’m giving a presentation on web standards (and revealing a pirate redesign of one of AOL’s big products) in 30 minutes. I’m sitting here in this empty conference room, which I got to an hour early to make sure all the equipment worked and that I could get the […]

Hey, look on the homepage, and you’ll see something new underneath the really cute pictures and the feed links… I have a linklog now! I know, I’m shocked too, but it was time. There are things I come across every day that I don’t have time to really blog about, but want to keep track […]

Yeah, so, how are you? Me? I’ve decided to institute a “don’t blog angry” policy here, which means you may not hear from me a whole lot.

Redesign in progress… not done, still going. Colors may change (especially the green… looks good in the palette, not so sure on the site). Beware falling fonts. There, let’s try that for a little while and see what happens. I’m not sure about the fonts, but I think I can live with the colors for […]

I’ve got nothing to say. Stuff is happening, and I’m doin’ what I always do. I just have nothing to say about it. Isn’t that worth reading?

Meridia is the new diet pill I’m trying (per my doctor – no it-ner-web pharmacia for me). The side effects include, and I quote, “dry mouth, sleeplessness, irritability, stomach upset or constipation.” Check, check, check, aaaaaand check. But, I’ve lost seven pounds. I’m still not sure it’s worth it. Let’s talk about the sleeplessness. I […]

I’ve been listening to this playlist I created called Max’s Happy Music to try and cheer me up. I don’t know why, but the President’s press conference last night is eating at me. Lots of things are eating at me. You’d think I’d be losing more weight…

Just because I still don’t feel well, but wanted to change something, I’ve redone the main page of the blog. The last couple days aside, I’ve been writing much longer posts than I used to, and the front page has been getting much larger than I would like. In an effort to make the page […]

Sick, sore throat, headache, body aches, sinus pain. Thanks a lot, Max.
