JOB HUNTING…it’s not just for breakfast anymore. What a BIIIITCH! Oh, sweet, 14merciful mother of god, puhleeze help me get a freaking gig sometime this century!
…btw, it should be known that although Monday was DAY ONE of my stint as a partially unemployed! chick, and as of midnight Tuesday it is DAY THREE, the date I created this newsletter was DAY TWO, I just was too darned lazy to post it up until way after prime homepage flippin’ time. (midnight, central standard time to you). Thus, still DAY TWO, and so it shall be!
Dangit! today for like, two hours, the weblogs’ server must’ve been down ’cause I couldn’t get to my site…dang dang dang! All’s better later though, well ok, I was paranoid for a minute there, LOL. Just making sure someone hasn’t hacked my site up… I mean, sometimes I have my cookies set and sometimes I don’t and my ’so called’ friends come over here and uses my pc sometimes but I doubt they could have done anything, STILL…you never know.
Hey, lookah what I found…somebody’s dirtyass mind took over and they went searching for cumshots and my site came up! yikes…
Whoo hoo! I made #100 of the top 100 page reads at weblogs. Surely someone out there loves me, even if it’s just a little bit.
AS SEEN ON tee vee!Oooh! aren’t you dying for an EGGWAVE under your tree this Christmas?!
I heart the Kids In The Hall!
I love love love them, and now that I’ve been at home during the day alot more, I am smitten with the tv. At least for awhile. I really don’t DO that much tv, really! Some folks have decided that IT’S JUST NOT COOL and I need to be more plugged into the boob toob. I’ve been called anti-tv, a commie, a loser…whatEVER. I got better stuff to do, thanks very much.
Fingerprint Sensor in new Mouse
Great gift for the geek who has EVERY FREAKING THING. Possible (and no doubt pricey) alternative to setting and resetting your browser cookies or using password-keeping programs…aren’t both of those things free? Are people THAT damned lazy? [full story here. -b]
And if domains aren’t ALREADY a headache…
Now you can have more pain! The new web suffixes are changing the rules yet again on how companies registar domains, and has a huge impact on indexing and placement in search engines, as well as site traffic. The introduction of seven new domain names will also throw companies’ for a loop when seeking to protect their trademarks and brands. Sounds like something that would require a 12-step program to cope with. [full story here. -b]
Smell-O-Web?
Yes indeedy! http://www.digiscents.com/ is planning on bringing a fourth sense to the www. Called iSmell, the idea is this: A small plastic box is attached to your pc which is filled with bulbs that hold scented oils. When you dial up a site with the plug in to communicate with the smelly peripheral, it causes it to waft hot air across a combination of the oils to make up the scent. [so now with sound and sight being covered, and touch on the way, in six years is it possible that I can not only visit my favorite restaurant online, but also smell the special of the week, to boot? When can we start licking stuff? Who can stand to wait for that? I can. How many more questions shall I ask? I’ll shut up now. -b]

Radio stations must pay to play, U.S. rules
In a setback for broadcasters, the U.S. Copyright Office rules that Clear Channel Communications and other radio companies must pay extra for putting music on the Internet. [full story here -b].
Do the Pink Slip Polka!
Layoffs, closures, collapsing stock prices and slumping morale may be torturing the tech sector, but that hasn’t stopped some down-and-out tech workers from having a good time. [If you’ve ever been to a few of these parties. You already know that you never meet so many project “managers” and “coordinators” and “producers” in one place. full story here. -b]
HotOffice.com to turn cold soon
I’ve never even heard of this store, which would explain some of why it’s closing down… Customers have apparently been e-mailed a notification that HotOffice will cease operations on December 19th. [Dammit, Intelligent X did not provide a link to this one…must be unconfirmed. If that’s the case, you didn’t hear this from me! Also, Intelligent X has even stated themselves that even though they’re not sure why, this news seems to have made some people around the Intelligent X office a bit nervous. Word has it that thousands of people signed up under the impression that it was an adult entertainment site. Hmmm…porn at the office? Hey, whatever will get ya a raise, I guess! -b]
Good Night, Mr. Snoozleberg
Although it is alot of fun, and very cute, This game will drive you nuts…if you know what’s good for you, you will not go play it. It is a Shockwave-based game and the object of it is to move around the objects around this sleepwalking man, in order to not wake him. If you can get him to pass through the scene safely, you win. Fun, for killing time and the effects are fun, too but it is habit forming and not as simple as you’d think.
Hey, Meathead!
A site devoted to urging us all to remember, cherish, and celebrate the past, present, and future of hats made of meat. PS: If Meat Hats aren’t your thing, check out http://www.peta.com! My ratingsOriginality: A+ = ‘Cause it’s kinda funny to see people wearing meat on their heads and the fashion commentary is refreshing.
Effort: C-, Unfortunately this site’s publisher failed to change the page’s title, so now we all know which lame-ass web authoring program he used to create it [probably in WYSIWYG, too, LOL -b]
