In building a site for a friend, I used the opportunity to explore some new modules and tools in helping migrate date between different environments (meaning: from development to production).

My band's EP, Made in Cabrasfornia, is done and ready for you to check out:

My band, Lost Cabras, is getting ready to release the EP soon! Entitled Made in Cabrasfornia, the EP will have four songs, "Some Say", "Wrong Idea", "Glance", and "Clown Boat Lamp". The songs are mixed and mastered, and artwork is on it's way. We are SOOOOO excited about these songs!

I'm using the Topspin Media tools to offer up a free download ahead of the release. Enter your email into the "widget" and you'll be sent a link to the download.

Applications spinning 'round. Applications spinning 'round. Facebook, twitter, myspace, email, friendfeed, flickr, youtube, rss feeds, message boards, so much to read, so much to reply to, so much to watch, everyone wants a bit of your time. Techcrunch posts a dozen new apps a day, "hey! Try us! We are the best thing ever! Sign up and give US all your time! We'll change your life! All in a simple interface!"

Ada Lovelace Day is an international day of blogging to draw attention to women excelling in technology.

I was supposed to blog about one person in particular, but I just don't have the heart or energy for writing lately, so I'll post something very general. There are of course lot's of great smart, hardworking people in technology who happen to be women.

Yay!

on the verge of panic again
my instinct is to run
i hate this
but i need the gold
i need to glamor
so i stick it through
lunch i brought is making me sick
find myself in a loop of misunderstanding and confusion
oh wait, now I remember.
give me a moment
give me a moment so the synapses fire.
my brain ain't so young as yours
takes me a while to get revved up.
and i want to drift off, and stare at you in confusion

you are ruining my concentration
you ruined our conversation
you are ruining my consternation
and that makes us very anxious.

I don't get eBay. Wasn't ebay at one point supposed to be a place to get a good deal? Maybe it's the stuff I search for, but ebay is overrun by people who overprice and overcharged for shipping and "handling". The only value I can see in ebay these days is to gauge what stuff is going for (albeit overpriced), especially with "completed listings".

I've had numerous instances, especially with music equipment, video games, and CD's, where I've found MUCH better deals on Craigslist, niche message boards, or Amazon.com. So what use is ebay then? I don't get it...
