So I woke up today to discover that something I programmed back in 2003 broke which meant that all the journals got set back to 1969. It was horrible, luckily I had evertything backed up in various formats but I spent the entire day working on it. I got to fix up the old stuff to use the new format which is great but right now the next ten button is broken and it will just have to be that way because everyone will freak out on me if I don't stop now.

--update: If I had only checked my email earlier I would have seen that (e:twisted) had sent me a heads up about this way before I realized what was going on.

hey - the time stamp seems to show when the post was last modified instead of
originated. Your journal goes from 11/25 to 11/19 and back to 11/25. Looks like a
bunch of journals got "touched" on 11/25.

--update I removed them - time to go chill out

I decided to try out google ads on recommendation from (e:shawnr). He uses them for his site at

Personally, I hate the flamming comericalism of it and I think it does a really bad job targeting the ads. It is easy on his site because it is all about games and gaming systems, but on our it is really diverse and it doesn't seems smart enough yet. But seeing as he makes enought to pay for his hosting, I figure why not try it.

What is the point of targetted ads when you have targeted ads that are fake. Like this one from (e:leetee)'s journal where it choose cranberry sauce because of some mention of thansgiving.

Buit notice the ad is for ebay. Who the fuck buys cranberry sauce on ebay? Nobody - that is such a lame, fake ad. Why bother with targeted key word ads when they are just blantant ads for other things. Hoenstly, I would rather just see a glossy ad for ebay than a fake one for cranberry sauce on ebay.



Peeps that log in do not see them and as it is free to log in I see no point in feeling to guilty. I might just get rid of them either way, but seeing as not one signle person has donated in over 4 months - I am really sick of paying for it all myself. Although, I love the project and promise it will not go away ever - i just need to figure out some other means of support.

Soon enough we will be moving to the artvoice space. The server is all set up now, I am just waiting for the new mac ton arrive to replace it before I move it. I also cannot screw it all together right now becaus eit is in the tortoise room and its too cold for Basra when I open the closet that the server lives inside of.

If it picks out a few more god things then it's gone.

I spent the day making the XHTML mobile version of the site pretty functional. It's not pretty yet but it is definately working. You can search, write in your epad, chat, read your messages, read the latest entries, and publish all from your mobile XHTML handset. The wap version of the site can do most of the same things on an older phone.

My stupid phone does not save pics right anymore, so I am reduced to screen captures from the phone, lame.

My mother has turned my old room into a craft/storage extravaganza.

(e:lilho), who is missing all of her ID,etc and probably won't even be able to board the plane called to ask for a ride to the airport at 4am - the morning of thanksgiving. I would give her one but we don't have a car since (e:terry) had the accident yesterday which he hasn't mentioned yet. I will leave the details up to him but it's fair to say we a minus one tire but have one complete (e:terry) who now has to take the bus to work out in cheektowaga.

(e:terry) is lucky that there is a bus because otherwise he would be really stuck with his work being so fara way. (e:lilho) on the other hand is not so lucky. I cannot believe there is no public transportation to the airport during all flight hours. The first bus goes at 6:18am which is late. When I tried to plan the trip using the NFTA public transport planner it gave me the following response. I think it meant the not only the trip to the airport but the broader trip to NYC.
