clock | October 13, 2006No posting tomorrow. I will (or should be) at ConvergeSouth all day tomorrow. That is, if I make it there. My ride suddenly quit. I e-mailed a few local bloggers but have not received any responses yet. Perhaps I'll make it, perhaps I won't. If I do, I'll post my thoughts on the conference on Sunday.
Upodate: Got a ride. See ya on Sunday. I have scheduled several posts for automatic posting before bed tonight, a picture of a cat, some science news, etc, just to prevent the blog from rotting away and falling apart...

clock | October 11, 2006If you are not a North Carolina blogger you may have skipped over this earlier post in which I mention, among else, that a new blog was started right there and then, at the Blogger MeetUp.
Now, the blog is up and running and there is new content there. So, go say Hello to a new science blogger, Lorraine Cramer of Microblogology.
clock | October 11, 2006Thus, you should not be blogging if you are a good Christian child. Because blogging promotes thinking!

clock | October 11, 2006I missed it when it happened, but this post was my 1000th since the move to Seed. My average is 8.2 posts per day. How about you?
Fortunately, MovableType has the ability to schedule posts for future publishing. Thus, I usually write a bunch of posts at night (it may take an hour or two to write 5-10 posts) and schedule them to show up during the next day (every 30 or 60 minutes until I run out of posts). The longer, more involved posts are usually written during the weekend but appear during the workday mornings. Thus, there is an appearance that I am constantly online while I am…
clock | October 10, 2006I wish more bloggers would read and bookmark this post (I don't know when I first wrote it, but I moved it up top on April 20, 2006):
This is an old post but I wanted to bring it up to top as I recently saw some blogs shut down improperly, i.e., deleting the complete content.
Every now and then a blog shuts down. There are as many reasons as there are bloggers, ranging from getting bored, through getting Dooced, to dying. Every blogger goes about shutting down the blog in different ways. I tried here to put down, in more or less systematic way, the dos and donts of shutting down a blog. If…

clock | October 7, 2006On Thursday night I went to the Chapel Hill-Carrboro blogger MeetUp. Actually, I did not plan on going - my wife was out of town and I had kids on my hands on a schoolday, so I told Anton in advance that I would not be coming this time.
But, the previous day both of my kids bugged me about some online stuff, asking me how certain things are done and I had no idea how to help them! I promised I'd ask my blog friends. But then, I had an Eureka moment and asked my kids if they would rather ask my blog friends in person! They were quite enthusiastic about it so we went all three of us to Open…
clock | October 7, 2006I just discovered (on my Sitemeter referrals list!) a cool new blog - Biology In Science Fiction. Several good posts so far. Go check it out!

clock | October 5, 2006...not to write a blog post. Advice for the next generation, but some of it applies to us old geezers as well.
clock | October 5, 2006...to Shakespeare's Sister. It is her second blogiversary today.
I am always amazed when I realize that some of the bloggers I most look up to have been blogging less time than I have, and Shakes is certainly one of those bloggers I most look up to - has been a daily must read for a long time now.
