Lexington Coop

We went to the coop today again, there were pictures of the new coop. I am sure it's construction will bring many other large storefronts like walgreens to elmwood in the near future. I mean how can we justify the demolition and construction for one company and not for others. I imagine the traffic is really gonna suck too.

What about the fact that the coop had the ability to change another neighborhood for the better.
Why did they not move down where the family dollar is opening, one block up from Allen. It's a big but not too big store, and it had a parking lot and no traffic problem.

What do you'll think? How many of you are members of the coop?

I am Sorry Churhcofjulie

Sorry (e:churchofjulie) if I offended you, I owe you dinner, if you can forgive me for jumping to conclusions. I feel like I should publically say this athough i will email you. I misunderstood the intentions of your previous "last post" and was terrified by the idea that the gov't was intimidating people on our site shut up or pull out support for something they believe in.

Like I said I have no problem with you quiting your journal, time passes - people change, I seriously understand not wanting to keep a journal. I just thought you were being intimidated to quit and spoke out before I knew everything - that's my biggest downfall everytime.

Argh, now I am really worried about my soul. I mean, you are by all intensive purposely, the my higher religious authority! Please don't make it rain all summer or something like that, hahah.

Keith and Comedicqueen

I figured it out. I think you are copying and pasting your entries from Microsoft Word. If that is the case I fixed it. Go ahead and try pasting something with apostrophes or quotes again. I won't be able to fix the old ones though. You would need to fix them yourselves.

Exactly what I am saying Ajay

[inlink]ajay,43[/inlink] This has all been catalogued and extracted.

It is really perplexing for people to claim they never thought people would read things that they are posting on the web, when is the most ubiquitous medium possible. It's more likely someone reads what you wrote here, than if you had it flown over attached as a banner on a bi-plane.

Liz and Google and Advertising

(e:liz),
In response to [inlink]liz,47[/inlink] which is in response to [inlink]paul,1202[/inlink] and [inlink]churchofjulie,38[/inlink].

The whole google search issue resulted from the February feedback [inlink]news,172[/inlink]. I did not originaly want the individual journals to be seached by google, because it took away from my whole anti-globalization campaign but when the time came for February Feedback, it was suggested (here's one [inlink]ajay,10[/inlink] that we change the selecting method from POST to GET so that bots can search through the content.

I changed it and in a way it's kind of neat, I mean it definitely spreads our messages yet in another way, why should google, yahoo, MSN, etc profit from our writing. That's what makes me crazy about google. Why should they be able to make mad money off of people like us? I mean they sell advertisements only because their bots suck pages.

Why is the whole search engine thing even legal. I mean isn't it full of copyright issues. If I made a zine with pics of different disney characters and sold advertisements space for it, I would most like be sued. Yet they can put up other people's copyrighted info and tack advertisements all around it with no problem. Search for Disney on google . What's up with that? What do you guys think?

Churchofjulie Continued

On a totally unrelated note I am still disturbed by (e:churchofjulie) silencing herself. By not speaking out, you are giving in. Sorry, if other people feel different but I think you're kind of a sellout, not to mention you incriminate yourself so much more by acting suspicious and destroying what you wrote.

image

I mean, I would totally respect it if you said everything is too much, I'm quitting my journal or I just am not interested in being public anymore but erasing yourself is like going into hiding, and hiding isn't a cool place to be for someone like you who did nothing wrong. You have nothing to be afraid of!!

What if the government starts to harass and scare every innocent, yet outspoken American and we all just become silent and complacent. One who gives up their freedom for protection neither gains freedom nor protection. The thought of this whole thing is making me sick, it is setting such a bad precident for freedom of expression on the net.

Costume Play in Buffalo

I just realized that a bunch of girls here are dressed in cosplay (short for costume play) style.

image

If you don't know about this japanese style craze go to the artvoice site

This cosplay thing is making network jumps. Think about it. If the people here are inspired by the artvoicce site, then they are beiong infleuenced purely through their network connections and the style is making network leaps from from little fashion vortex to another. I guess, if they found out about the costume play scene through artvoice, it would be appropriate to the artvoice festival.

Epeeps at the Fest

I saw many of the epeeps today but where oh where is stickboy. (e:rachel) told me this great story about how she was home on the site, saw my post, IMed me and then we met here. See my previous post on live social networking [inlink]paul,951[/inlink]. This was epeeps.net style networking at its finest.

image

(e:southernyankee) confirmed my belief that the Artvoice festival is more commercial than last year.

Billy the Dog

Billy [inlink]stickboy,93[/inlink], I bet you think you are the first dog to write on the site. Amazingly, we have already had a dog journal for months, but he had recently retired his writing career. It was (e:mk) 's dog named Lucky, the journal was named Lucky too. Maybe I should bring it back from the archives for you.
