Things wordy, geeky, and webby

While most of the Web

While most of the Web is asleep on the weekend (non-business related places), Shirley Kaiser was busily revamping her Brainstorms and Raves Web site. She moved it to its own domain and redesigned its look. I give it two pencils up (what can I say, I am writing my notes with pencils in hands). Today, she provides an in depth tutorial on using Blogger. If you have been wanting to try it, but didn’t feel ready… maybe this will nudge you along.

It’s a shame we’re in the year 2001. I miss saying “nineteen – something.” “Two-thousand something” just doesn’t flow. Someone conducted an online survey to determine what the new 2000s should be called and I believe the winner is “aughts.” So, here we are in the year “aught-one.” Really, this is not as bad as some of the other nominees.

Web appreciation of the day: Joel Evans and Sam Evans of geek.com. Every day they work to search the Web for hot news and report it. It’s no easy task. Since I joined these fellers’ team, I find some days just don’t wanna look for news and write about it. Yet, they’ve done it day after day for over a year.
