    I like these silk screened window shades. Perhaps I should silk screen my window shades.

    What should I put on mine?

    Sorry for the down time readers! My internet hosting company was having some issues with the server. I called, complained, and was told it’d be back up soon. It looks like it’s back in business now, hopefully it’ll stay up and operational.

    Rock on.

  • Firefox Ad Blocker.

    Do you hate the distracting ads that appear on the side of CNN.com and the like showing dancing people or suggesting that you shave the legs of the hairy lady, or slap the belly of the sumo wrestler in order to get great new rates on your mortgage?

    Firefox has an awesome ad blocker which just covers those ads up. So if you’re using Firefox, you can click here. This will take you to the Ad Blocker download page and will guide you through the rest of the setup.

    And no, Schenk, it doesn’t hide my ads.

      The Era of Complimentary Spam

      November 28th, 2007 by mike d. in The Page

      currently drinking: coffee

      My spam filter cleans out HUNDREDS of spam related comments a day. And even with the technologies JonAbad installed on the site, a few still get through now and again and need to be manually deleted.

      What I find interesting is the progression of spam from pure advertisement to complimentary. We used to get spam that just threw the product in your face. Then spammers got a little more creative (not intelligent) and started complimenting my guest book. This is particularly humorous since I don’t have a guest book. The latest craze seems to be ping-backs (references to your blog that in-turn throws a comment onto your blog). they use the link as “vote” on search engines to get higher in the list.

      Sometimes the ping backs are just ping backs. nothing special.

      othertimes though it’s a link to your blog with more compliments thrown in. Things like, “Read this great article on mikedidonato.com”

      Oh Spam. I don’t find your antics cute anymore. Seriously. cut it out.

      There’s no Barbecue in Korea.

      November 28th, 2007 by mike d. in Quickthoughts

      As I step over the doorway into a two weeks of pure mayhem, I anticipate with clammy excitement the completion of a monster paper and a trip to Texas. I start to complain and dread… and then I realize, well, Sander’s got to go to Korea.
      And at least Texas has delicious Barbecue.
