yahoogroups privacy

Thanks to (e:chaibiscoot) for this one.

Yahoo is now using something called "Web Beacons" to track Yahoo Group users around the net and see what you're doing and where you are going similar to cookies. Yahoo is recording every website and every group you visit. Take a look at their updated privacy statement:

[http://privacy.yahoo.com/privacy] About half-way down the page, in the section on cookies, you will see a link that says web beacons. Click on the phrase web beacons. That will bring you to a paragraph entitled "Outside the Yahoo Network." In this section you'll see a little "click here to opt out" link that will let you "opt-out" of their new method of snooping. Once you have clicked that link, you are exempted. Notice the "Success" message on the top of the next page. Be careful because on that page there is a "Cancel Opt-out" button that, if clicked, will *undo*! * the opt-out.

Let us all be thankful

Summer weather may be a reality after all.

Last night was great. As I said before our project was quite sucessful as it was sleek, sexy, technically sound, and truly portable. We took it out on the town and just about everyone noticed and asked what was going on with our cyborg jackets. It turned out to be a good advertisment for our professor and his program. I will post more information/media about it when I get my computer back.

Unfortunately, we had a bunch of incidences in which we had to drive around which made us about 30 minutes late to the show. Our professor had a hissy fit, in the truest sense of a hissy fit. It was actually the longest most drawn out drama I have ever witnessed from a authority figure, but hey everyone expresses themselves differently. If it were me I would sternly say, "I am disapointed in you." and leave it at that. He really gave my partner this guilt trip after an excellent show. I think that was pretty crappy of him, especially considering how much she has done for him (an unbelieveable amount of stuff) , and that he taped her hair out with electrical tape that night.

He seemed to forgive us in a drunken state by the end of the night but at this point I don't care about it all very much, even a C- would barely dent 72 credit hours of 4.0!! And I definately deserve an A++ in terms of what we pulled off.

Thank god for the end of grad school. I can now go back to being a productive media artist without the constraints of other people's project concepts.

FiveV

It was so totally freakin' sucessful. Now I wish I invited more people. We took our clothing out to Hardware on Allen where the class went after the show. Cassie knew I was arriving because her jacket alerted her. I love it.

The Job - The Show

Tonight is the show for the fiveV project. I am so excited about it being done as my life can finally return to the regularly schedules program that it was.

Not Knowing Makes Me Insane
I still can't stop dreaming about job scenarios. Last night I was in germany working for t-mobile. In real life, Dmitri (the job recruiter) had called again about more jobs but I told him to hold off until June so that I could find out about the Canisius job. It is all I can think about right now.

Maybe I need to learn to not obsess and focus on things, but I guess that is the same strength I use to get stuff done. I mean, I already did everythign I can to make it happen, now it is just waiting to find out. I guess I need to realize that no matter what, I will find something great, so everything is going to be fine. I suppose it is really the $80,000 in student loans that is eating away at my sanity. Sometimes I question if I should have actually just gone for the Second Life job because it sounded so fun and because I probably would have known a lot sooner.

I will be posting throughout the day today about the show and the progress.

It's almost time

It's almost time till there are some new tech developments for the site. I can't believe grad school basically ends on Friday give or take a paper and some favors. I am so ready to begin the next portion of my life wherever it takes me.

Hopefully I will be teaching at Canisius. Then I will invest a lot of money into this com,unity site and make it much faster, cooler, easy to work with for me.

If not then something really wrong happend, because I am seriously qualified for the position - maybe then I will pursue my Italian citiizenship and go back to botany. I am convinced there is a career for me in vitaculture. I decided I am keeping my new user pic with the tie until I know either way. I am so anxious to find out. When I asked my Chair today how long it would take, I got the idea that at some point in May I would know, but not tomorrow or anything like that.

It has been a long ride since I first rode my bike to the job interview for multimedia specialist four years ago. I feel like I have been through so much in such a short period of time.

On another note, you should always get the house salad at Globe Market on Elmwood and I have a new friend named Cassie, she is pretty fun, although a little wild. I am trying to convince her to start a journal too.
