Guardian on Mobile Blogs

.

My mobile blog gets brief mention in The Guardian. The way I went about making the thing was a bit of a hack, though; it needs an AIM account, an AIM-capable cellphone, Blogger, and Bloggerbot — all simultaneously working, which is not always the case — to be of use, and even then only up to 150 characters. Still, I’m having fun.

(I really don’t like the apellation “moblog.” The term sounds too much like “Smart Mob”, so I think that “mobile blog” will suffice for me, despite the extra syllable.)

Packerized!

.

I just received an email from Randall Packer, acclaimed audio/multimedia artist and professor of network art at MICA. Apparently I have achieved a small level of notoriety among some of the faculty for my *cough* 1337 skillz *cough*, and am now being invited to help out with a collaborative blog, and possibly even join the Advanced Network Art class for the Spring semester.

I’m seriously considering it. I’m also trying not to get a big head.

Tan-tan-tan…

.

The astronomy documentary on black holes currently playing on Discovery Channel is using a bastardized version of the Star Trek theme for its background music. It’s really pithing me off.

WLW?

.

Dave King says that someone posted 300+ links to me to illustrate a bug feature in the “Who Links Who?” rankings, but I hadn’t noticed anything odd in my referrals. Who did that?

In any case, my WLW page should be an excellent tool to update my link list from. (When someone isn’t linking me 300+ times, that is.) Thanks for the service, Dave.
