Blogger, designer, and my good friend, Bryan “Danger” Murphy, got smashed over the head with a baseball-bat-like tree branch and mugged of all his pocketed possessions on Saturday in Central Park. His account of the attack, and the pedestrian and police response is harrowing and fascinating. He’s lucky to be alive and he knows it. […]
Douglas Bowman of Stopdesign recently made all the template files from his beautiful personal weblog photo gallery available for free download and use. They are intended to be used with MovableType version 3 and higher, and it seems that they would be super-diffuclit to adapt to Wordpress or any other CMS. Since I’m not using […]
You all should know by now that I love the site, The Superficial, mostly because I love when celebs make total asses of themselves, or get naked. The writing there is so funny, so rude, so irreverant, that I wish I cared about celebrities more. Recently, I started reading IDontLikeYouInThatWay.com, which has a similarly hilarious […]
Bryan “Danger” Murphy has been sending me great links for over a year now. He is funny as hell in real life, and was the author of the greatest farewell letter ever written, AND the open letter to his own TV. He’s a designer by trade, though you couldn’t tell from the look of his […]
Owen Winkler is an awesome Wordpress plugin author. I downloaded and installed his new “flash filter” audio player plugin tonight. This is both a test post, and another shout out to my favorite new music artist of the year, Regina Spektor. I have a ton of her music and adore every bit of it. That […]
Flickr Explore is a fantastic, brand new use for Flickr. Cheers to nice, homegrown added-value.
The idea is simple. Magically, by analyzing tags and image popularity and other attributes, Flickr creates a calendar of every day of every month and “hand picks” images based on “interestingness.” The result is a spectacular selection of photos that invariably […]
Jason Kottke is a fulltime blogger. He posts all day long and it’s hard to keep up. If it’s good and on the Internets, he’s got it up before I can even open my browser. If looks like I am stealing, I probably am. Go there often. Stop coming here 
Attention! I am in the NY Times! Again! How sweet is that?! I am so fucking famous I don’t know what to do with myself.
Oh no, wait, it’s Stephanie Klein that’s famous. It’s HER 2 page article online, on the front page of the NY Times Fashion & Style section. Those are HER curly, red […]
News Corp, Rupert Murdock’s empire corportation (Fox TV, Fox News, 20th Century Fox) just bought Intermix Media, owners of MySpace.com, the very popular community and social networking site, for $580 million.
[0 comments]Last week during a development conference in Brazil, David Heinemeier Hansson (Loud Thinking), one of the lead developers of Ruby on Rails and partner at 37signals (Basecamp, Backpack, Ta-Da), gave a live presentation where he built a rudimentary weblog content management system using Ruby on Rails in 15 minutes. You read that right. He built […]
I don’t have to go see The Fantastic Four to know: A. It is a piece of shit, and B. Jay Pinkerton is a genius.
I link to Jay’s website in the sidebar, but have never talked about how funny he really is. I guess he’s a professional at this “comedy writing” thing, because everything he […]
Speaking of chiwawa’s, I nearly fell out of my chair when I saw this photo on youcantmakeitup.blogspot.com. Owner and proprietor, Michelle Collins, is a funny motherf*cker! Out of her mind, I think, but hilarious. Check her out.
