The pressure that telecommunications companies can put on Congress is pretty amazing…
Net Neutrality
0 Comments Published by finn June 8th, 2006 in Verbal Vomit, Politics, techno-geek, internetAv, a talented guy that I used to work with at EarthLink has a blog and he wrote a great post about Net Neutrality. It says what need to be said in words much more eloquent than I could put together, take a look.
Since I really haven’t posted in a while, here are some happenings.
Anna & Dorian were here for almost 2 weeks from Italy!
Katie & I got ourselves early anniversary presents… Disneyland Premium Annual Passes.
We’ve got grass in the back yard now, and I’ve begun work on a 24 foot long raised planter box.
Work is going well, […]

At around 10:45pm shots rang out just down the street from my house. I wasn’t sure whether they were gunshots or firecrackers. Ok, I was pretty sure that they were gunshots, but I didn’t want to alarm Katie. She came outside and asked me what they were and I told her I […]
Why is it that every social networking site thinks that you want to use them as a blog? I’ve had my own blog for more years than I care to admit, and really I don’t use it that much. I really haven’t the free time anymore to sit in front of my computer for hours […]
Gotta love it! WP Tiger Administration
2 Comments Published by finn March 1st, 2006 in Verbal Vomit, Site News, wordpressI found a nice little wordpress administration plugin called WP Tiger Administration that give the wordpress administration area a very clean and easy to use look. I love the fact that it looks very Mac-like. Apple has always had the best looking UI (at least IMHO) and this plugin brings the look to wordpress.
feedburner
0 Comments Published by finn March 1st, 2006 in Verbal Vomit, Site News, techno-geek, wordpressI’ve decided to give FeedBurner a try. We’ll see how that goes.
To accomplish this I’ve installed the WordPress FeedBurner Plugin. The plugin install is easy and the plugin seems to just work. Very nice.
I’m changing the colors again. Yes, again. I didn’t like the top logo. And I didn’t like the colors.
So, I found a nice color scheme over at Return of Design and I’m using one of their schemes to recolor redkanga.
I’m liking the colors a lot better and I’ve got some more work to do to […]
Dvorak wrong with talks about the death of OSX
0 Comments Published by finn February 25th, 2006 in techno-geek, softwareI found an article about Why John C. Dvorak is Wrong About Apple. After reading the article, I had to agree, Dvorak is crazy. Why would Apple give up the one thing that makes Macs so great, the OS?
Admittedly, I only have Wintel PC’s right now. Four even: my work laptop (a ThinkPad T42), Katie’s […]
