Just an update on the hosting issues I’ve been having lately. My email is currently in limbo between the backup servers, as far as I can tell. I may or may not recieve emails placed between yesterday through today. The techs assure me this is being taken care of, but they always say that. Most likely the site will be moving this week to another hosting plan within Lunarpages, but hopefully away from them entirely. The windows hosting at Lunarpages has been nothing short of subpar, and I would not recommend their windows plan to anyone.
For more information on the trials and tribulations of my support tickets, check out my feedback article on the Lunarforums.
Thank you all for your patience. If you have any immediate needs, or concerns contact me via my cellphone or my gmail address (abyss12).
Great article via Digg.com, Developers are from Mars, Programmers are from Venus, is probably the single best description of the difference between developers and programmers. I am proud to be the former. It took a year of experience to get me there, but I’m on the right track. Kudos to the blog author.
Well, most gadget aficionados, myself included, are awaiting the release of many new products in the coming months. From the newest product from Nintendo, the Wii, to the Sony Mylo, and Microsoft’s Zune there are a myriad of new toys to be had. The target market for most of these devices lands smack in the middle between highschool kids, and college students. Call it a coincidence, or just fate, but this happens to be the same target audience which MySpace has succumbed to. The horribly crafted pages of MySpace.com lend themselves to the artsy hands of anyone with a small amount of knowledge of the web. By making the web this easy to influence, MySpace has created what some call a cult of personality much like Apple did with the iPod, but without the Jobs. The independent souls of MySpace can go from zero to hero in a matter of keystrokes. Digg helps nicely with this effect.
More on the history, and philosophy after the jump.
