Bug squashing
Thanks to (e:maidencateyes) and (e:ajay) I was able to squash the end of the month bug. This bug would make it so that during the last three hours of the month, journals would post to the server, but not show up until midnight. I knew it had to due with the fact that the old server code used to add 3 hours to everything to compensate for the fact that the server was in California. I had fixed most references to that but i guess I forgot a few. I would always forget about it and then the problem only occurrs during the last three hours of the month.

Well this time we got it. No more 3 hours mystery bug. Thanks.

Experimental Radio Lecture
This may be interesting to a few of you. I will be going if anyone else wants to go with me.

The Walter Klingenbeck Lecture

by Prof. Ralf Homann (Founder, Experimental Radio Program at Bauhaus University, Weimar)

where: Room 235 Department of Media Study, SUNY at Buffalo

when: OCTOBER 19, Tuesday 3:30pm - 4:50pm

The Bauhaus in Weimar is the first university in Germany that founded a Faculty of Media. A chair for Experimental Radio was established in 1999 and is the only one in Germany teaching radio in the context of the fine arts. This artistic practice is understood as an open field which supports interdisciplinary approaches, in the range from aesthetic operations, new technological developments and political activism.

Walter Klingenbeck was a 17 year old (Catholic) boy who founded an illegal radio station called 'Radio Rotterdam' in Munich during WWII. This radio station did never broadcast, but it did create a resistance group. Klingenbeck was discovered by the Gestapo and killed.

This event is the beginning of a lecture organized by the Institute of Distributed Creativity at the Department of Media Study in collaboration with Eyebeam (NYC) and The Thing (NYC).

Completeing the circle
I was looking at the incomming link from the western ny msuic board on the site and noticed this forum about Pano's demolatition plans where Dan posted a link to (e:metalpeter) 's journal. I had to post it to complete the circle. I mean that is what the web is about.

Findme
Category: design
I made a little interactive environment (~5MB) using the shockwave exporter on maya. There is an avatar of me in the world. When you find it, it hides twice. After the last time, it speaks and becomes a link to my journal.

Total Words
Now that i have reorganzied the way that the toal number of words per user is calculated, I can make quick calculations for the site. So on the home page (e:info) you can now find total words for the site listed in the site statistics. We are almost at 1,000,000 words written - 940,728 to be exact. I guess these words will get added to that. We should definately have a 1,000,000 words party. I remember when we celebrated 1,000,000 letters!
