A couple of months ago I promised I would take the flash videos (published as .swf files) and upload them to Blip.tv so that others could use them freely and embed them elsewhere at will. I finally got around to doing this, and if you need some quick videos overviews for all of the tabs [...]

UMW Blogs Support Vidoes Now Embeddable
Published by November 6th, 2008 in UMW Blogs and Uncategorized. 0 CommentsAfter reading this post by D’Arcy about how easy and free it is to get Akismet up and running for WordPress Multi-User, I finally decided to take the plunge and replace the developmentally languishing Spam Karma 2 with Akismet–I’ll miss you SK2! The setup was easy, and putting the link in the footer (which guarantees [...]
This is classic, and it’s so bad it’s almost good, which is what scares me about it. But the misinformation campaign being run here about openness is dangerous, and the portrayal of Bb NG as “a hip stud” who gets all the hot girls because he is so Web 2.0 just tells you how much [...]

Published by October 25th, 2008 in Formative 10, Uncategorized, films and movies. 4 CommentsWell, I guess I gotta get going on my formative 10 because what has taken me almost eight months, has taken D’Arcy Norman all of three days.
