Webpages That Make Noise
By rob | December 15, 2005
Ok, here’s something I totally hate. Webpages that make noise. Specifically, FRONT pages that make noise. Yes, if this is you, you suck.
Some big offenders that I’ve ran into in the past month:
Dollar Rent-A-Car. When you go to their site, the first thing you hear is a loud VROOM VROOM. Yes, a loud VROOM VROOM interrupts the nice music you’ve been listening to. Hey, if I wanted my browser to make noise when I visited a page, I’d turn on it’s stupid soundeffects it can make when you click something.
WBAL TV. When you visit their site, their “instaweather” forcast video starts playing. WITH SOUND. Please, if I wanted to hear you, I’d watch local TV. I don’t. So please stop.
Ok, gripe over.

My First Mashup
By rob | December 11, 2005
So, I finally finished my “first” mashup. The two songs used were “Baby Got Back” and “My Humps.” Yes, Fark would tag with with the big OBVIOUS, however, it was quite fun to throw together.
I will never admit to actually liking either of these songs.

Almost…there…
By rob | November 29, 2005
After a day of finishing up a bunch of cosmetic “5 minute jobs” (that never take 5 minutes), I’ve been told that my house is officially “listed” on the market — though I can’t seem to find it on any of the on-line searches. Took some new interior pictures at request of my agent for the listing this evening which I think show some of the “charm.”

patch is available. It fixes a file-descriptor leak.
