Google Analytics
I signed up for Google Analytics the other day and I heartily recommend it to anyone who has their own website. It allows you to track detail information about the traffic to your site. Beyond the basic unique visitors, pages served, etc, you get information about how long people spend on your site, how many [...]
My Rating
This rating was determined based on the presence of the following words: bomb (4x) death (1x) Meanwhile over at Unringing the Bell she got a PG-13 because she used the word “poop”. So “poop” is worse than “bomb”?
Twittering
Bryan Appleyard, the writer and blogger, wrote a blog entry about the new Twitter craze: I looked at Twitter a week or two ago and then stopped looking about 2 minutes later. It struck me as a vision of hell. For those who haven’t run into this phenomenon, Twitter is apparently a way to tell [...]
Menorah Script
I wrote a little script for Hanukah. I added an image of a Menorah on the front page of the downsyn forum but I needed to update the image each night to light the next candle. Instead of having to remember this, I wrote a script (derived from the BAFAB countdown) that looks for the [...]

Cute but dead
Stephanie mentioned the drawing of the little girl at the top of my blog so she probably needs an introduction (that is, the little girl in the drawing needs an introduction… not Stephanie). She is Lenore, the cute little dead girl, a creation of Roman Dirge. We were introduced to Roman Dirge when we became [...]
