Interwebs Upgraded! I’m Finally All Web 2.AJAX

23Dec06

It was time to start separating my “professional” content from the personal stuff and give me a better place for /etc, so here’s the new blog. It’s got all of the buzzwords too, like flickr, AJAX, and even del.icio.us. I doubt I’ll get around to designing my own theme or […]

Snakes On A Plane

28Jul06

A couple of days ago, I realized that I’ll be putting Snakes On A Plane on tomorrow– I’m flying on Friday to Seattle to spend about a week there for some exploring and relaxation in the Pacific Northwest. Of course my laptop is going with me, which has Python installed,. I’ll be taking […]

My New Site: Reviewfoo — Tips, News, and Reviews for Everyone

16Jul06

I’ve been making minor changes here and there to this site lately, and in general trying to figure-out where all of my visitors come from (about 1,600 unique visitors per day). During the process I’ve noticed my entries which are the most organically popular happen to be my reviews and experiences with various products.
I […]

Stupid Lingo Router

04Aug05

So if you got a login and password prompt when you came to my site, my stupid Lingo router flaked-out. I’m still not even sure what the problem was.. after messing around with it and hard rebooting it, it finally fixed itself. So yeah, the site is back now.

Experimenting With Ads

04Aug05

If you’re a regular reader, you might have noticed thave I’ve added some text ads. I’ve added some AdBrite ads, and will also probably start adding Google AdSense text ads at the top of each entry if they approve my request. This is a trial thing for me– if I can’t earn enough […]

It’s Zippy Like Tabasco

27Mar05

I’ve been spending a little time here and there in the last week moving my web stuff over to the new server while doing homework, and now it’s finally switched over. Let me know if anything is broken. In general the site should be like eleventy billion times faster now.
I still have […]

New Categories: Listening / Reading

19Mar05

Being someone who is always listening to music or reading something, I’ve decided to add a couple of categories under Personal for these sorts of items. I doubt I’ll really add much commentary to them most of the time, but I would at least like to put a few things out there just in […]

Comment Spam Problems Fixed

31Oct04

After finally giving-up for awhile on the fight against those comment spam bastards, I got around to implementing James Seng’s Turing Test plug-in for Movable Type. All comments have been re-enabled on all entries, which means that all comments for the past several years on my site should also be showing-up again. Hopefully […]

Welcome Gary Barnett / Dr. Dave Hnida / Katie Hnida Visitors

25Feb04

Google has ranked my CU Rape Allegation rant or whatever you want to call it pretty highly, so suddenly my site is seeing about twice the amount of traffic per day as it normally sees. The day before yesterday, I had over 370 unique visitors in fact.
If you’re looking for more information about Gary […]

The New booms.net Is Alive!

03Jan03

It’s official, booms.net contains content again! Its been quite some time since I’ve had a site with any content on it, perhaps 1997, and I decided that it was time to have an online presence again.
