What’s making me happy right now

Firefox 3 RC1 + Nightly Tester Tools plugin (makes most of my incompatible plugins work again). There is an about:config hack that sort of does the same thing but for some reason that didn’t work for me at all on Windows (the browser would crash without even launching). Sounds crazy, but I’m also using the [...]

Psst, Flickr has video now

And what better one to start with than a video of Nibblr?

Have I already told you that Tony is awesome?

I’ve been up all night (waiting up to record one of my good friends being interviewed on BBC radio, but that’ll have to wait for another post) so I don’t think I can adequately articulate how awesome this is.
My previously mentioned friend Tony has posted an early draft of a really kickass article, A Guide [...]

Would the real Morgan Webb please stand up?

I was briefly elated this morning when I saw this in my spam que.

Uploaded with plasq’s Skitch!

Alas, my investigation found that Akismet was correct in interpretting it as spam. Why do they toy with my emotions like that?

A word about advertising

After deliberation and discussion with my partner/spouse/lovemuffin we decided to remove all advertising from our collaborative site wherecraft.com. For some of the same reasons stated there, I’ve taken ads off theweejenny.net as well.
For nearly 2 years (I think, I don’t remember specifics since there was a lot of experimenting involved) I’ve had at the [...]

Ernie of Little Yellow Different is bloody adorable

I like the commenter who said that it captures his “Ernieness” perfectly, because it’s so true. I’ve been reading Ernie nearly as long as I’ve been on the interwebs (I even remember the little cartoon mascot he used to have on his site), so if he ends up reading this post I just wanna say [...]

This is rather interesting

I switched my 301 redirect to make the url default to theweejenny.net rather than www.theweejenny.net (I know there was a reason I chose www once upon a time but I can’t remember what it is anymore) and the constant trickle of spam trackbacks and comments stopped.
Now I’ll have to find something to do to look [...]

Jabba the Kitty (found on i can has cheezburger naturally)


Testing another theme, wonkiness may ensue

But I’m sure everybody’s used to a bit of wonkiness around here. *sigh*
Anywho, this time it’s Justin Tadlock’s new Options theme. It’s going to take me some time to slog through all the features, it’s got a LOT going on. This may add enough functionality to the site to prevent the need to switch to [...]

Ladies and Gents, I give you Theditor!…Again!

Here’s a wonderful animation created by that fella who’s videos I’ve posted a couple of times. (No not Brandon Hardesty, though he’s quite awesome too.) It’s for a very special purpose that’s explained quite well in the video itself, so I won’t slow you down by explaining it all in the preamble here. What [...]
