In Case You Hadn’t Guessed

I’m on vacation! Photos will be posted soon (and yes, they will include camels!).

The Problem Is Flickr

Thursday, September 27th, 2007

Or, rather, was flickr. I couldn’t figure out why this blog was taking so long to load, so I proceeded scientifically through the possibilities - first I changed the number of posts viewable on the main page to 5 from 10 (oh, default settings!). That didn’t work. Then I deleted all the photos from my posts. THAT didn’t work. So then I deleted the audio. Still no dice.

Finally, I deleted the flickr widget from my sidebar. Voila! Instant improvement.

So of course I had to go add all that other stuff back. Sigh.

On Social Networking

“If this is our small world, it is one that gives its greatest attention to small things.” Read Christine Rosen’s article about how MySpace and Facebook have impacted the idea of friendship here.

Full disclosure: I do have a MySpace account (although maybe it’s telling that it just took me three tries to remember the password so I could link to it here), but no Facebook.

Hello world!
