I have grown bold enough to play around with this blog's HTACCESS file, in an attempt to block certain IP and domain access. I realize that this is somewhat analogous to "everyone who's not here, raise your hand," but if anyone discovers that they can access this blog in some circumstances but not others, please [...]

A trio of unexpected logistical challenges, none of which is bad and none of which is in any way related to any headlines you might be reading, will require me to keep blogging to a minimum for the next week. Please, no panic selling or rumor-mongering if I don't post much for the next few [...]

Taking a much-needed vacation this week, at an undisclosed location. (Well, yet-to-be-disclosed.) I have some canned posts ready, along with relevant archive pieces — and, of course, Kip Clips for your enjoyment.

They caught my eye with this: Web hosting provider DreamHost has recently given its customers the rather unusual advice of choosing Google's Gmail over its own email service, telling them that "it's something Google … can do better." … "Just [...]

First off, thanks so much to everyone who contacted me with advice, suggestions and offers of assistance. It really meant a lot to me.
