last.fm

I just started scrobbling itunes into my last.fm account, if anybody’s interested in seeing what i’m listening to….

I seem to be on a weird ’social networking’ bent here in the last couple of days. I guess that’s OK.

A key purchase

Every once in a while, I make an online purchase that I feel truly reflects me, the person.

It is with great joy that I report that my new HP 48G Series Users Guide is pristine.

Why did I go on for so long with a moldy copy?! Hurray for the internet! Hurray for reverse polish calculators!

My new calculator manual

Sorry for the lack of content. Is anybody following my tumblr feed?

Anyone Can Fly a Blimp

As a blimp enthusiast (or something), it is my duty to post this link.

Name your price!

I gotta say: I really like this new name-your-own-price thing that’s going around.

Obviously you’ve already heard about the new Radiohead album, but maybe you are not aware of the new Trent Reznor-produced Saul Wlliams album The Inevitable Rise and Liberation of Niggy Tardust, which you can download for free or for $5 (you pick).

This morning I read about Paste magazine’s Name your own price for a 1-year subscription deal. Crazy. I don’t know if the magazine is any good, but it comes with a CD. I’m willing to gamble a buck.

Polite spam

Here’s a bizarre new approach to comment spam:

hello , my name is Richard and I know you get a lot of spammy comments ,
I can help you with this problem . I know a lot of spammers and I will ask them not to post on your site. It will reduce the volume of spam by 30-50% .In return Id like to ask you to put a link to my site on the index page of your site. The link will be small and your visitors will hardly notice it , its just done for higher rankings in search engines. Contact me icq 454528835 or write me tedirectory(at)yahoo.com , i will give you my site url and you will give me yours if you are interested. thank you

Gettin’ Jabbery with it

I’m trying to move from AIM to jabber, since the thought of not being tethered to AOL is pretty nice.

My jabber&email address is the same: .

Oh boy, that’s one dorky little picture, isn’t it.

Anyway, I’m logging into aim using a jabber gateway, so aim:kongbalong should continue to work, for those of you afraid to jump aboard the jabber-wagon.
