Here Today...
Philosophy class has really got me thinking about technology these days. For the first time in human history, we have access to mass amounts of information instantly in our own homes and, provided legacy file formats persist, future generations will have a more information about this generation than any other. We're so "connected" all of the time ( Read more... ) -
Ubuntu? Me too!
Easiest install ever! I just installed the Ubuntu Linux Operating System for my laptop (dual boot with windows, because I need to test web apps on ms internet explorer) and it was so easy! I installed Gentoo Linux on my desktop a few years ago and the process was manual and took a period of 36 hours over a weekend (most of it waiting for downloads/ ( Read more... ) -
Rice, Rice, Baby
http://www.freerice.com/index.php. Cute little vocab tester thing that donates a portion of its advertising revenue for every word you get correct. I seem to have a vocab hovering between level 32 to 36. (Too bad I don't know what their ranking means)
School note: two more midterms this week and another philosophy paper. I can do it! *cheer* Yay -
2 days left....
...to Nanowrimo! I just hope I can make my goal of 2000 words per day, what with my 3 midterms next week and the week after (plus a paper due as well). lol, I wonder if I can count the paper I write? Maybe incorporate it into the plot? My character could be completing a philosophy degree...yeah, that's it! eh, maybe not.

EWB's the place to BE!
I found an interesting site kiva.org. The basic concept is that people lend other people small amounts of money for grassroots type projects. So a small, family-run farm store that needs 500 dollars to improve yield (and thereby profit) might get $50 from 10 different donors. It sounds pretty kickin'.
I've finally updated the ewb site *woohoo*! ( Read more... ) -
Fanfics Updated
I've gotten around to updating Twisted again. *does a little dance* I'm managing to keep up to a weekly update schedule, hurrah!
I've also posted a little fic Of Two Minds that I've been hanging on to for a while. It's nice to get things off of my chest :)
w00t, accomplishment!

Story Ideas
It's funny (not ha-ha though) how story ideas keep popping up when I have other things to do. The most recent one won't be posted until the weekend though. I've got just barely enough self control not to write, edit and post it today... barely. Upcoming exam and assignment are more important - maybe if I say it enough I'll actually pull off not ( Read more... )
