I saw this awesome thing

on Clicked on MSNBC:

going to Boston

I'm tripping up to Boston for a conference:

"Web 2.0 and Your Brand". It sounds like the kind of title I roll my eyes at, but having talked with one of the organizers, I'm expecting good things. I expect my only problem with the name is that using "Web 2.0" is a common symptom of taking yourself too seriously, and I'm allergic to that. Still, it is about branding in the world of social media, so the title's right and it should be fun.

I'm going to split the drive by staying in NYC tonight and then driving up to visit my good buddies Eric and Erica in Boston. Looking forward to seeing them.

Anyway, if you need me, I'll be on the road, so calling will work best.

trying out a widget tool

This is the future of the interwebs . . . perhaps.





But does it work?

Well, I didn't put the code in twice, as far as I know. I wonder if the IE tab add-on for firefox is confusing the JavaScript that decides which version of the widget to show. Hmmm.

Hey, seems to work just fine now. That's encouraging.

my car just got stolen . . .

. . . By the NY police dept.

Apparently it was moved by the movies unit, but after 45 minutes of calling, hand-wringing, & wandering around, we found it. No thanks, I might add, to the goddamn police.
