some things about this design that are inspirational for a current project.

(tags: design inspiration)

some potentially useful resources here.

(tags: mac linux to-read)

this came thru my email via google alerts.

(tags: creditunion)

lots of places for research

(tags: cms_research intranet)

works with timeline (something I was playing with a while back) very cool-looking.

“You can get the benefits of microformats for your own maps applications” — I think I already did that. 🙂

(tags: google gis microformat)

::sigh:: I have most of either the first part of a novel or a first novel. Nice thing about this piece is that it even has suggestions for those of us who write lurching from pillar to post. 🙂

(tags: writing reference)

is this recursive? (also, send to KS.)

(tags: reference web_dev)

an interesting description of the basic feature of CMS vs. homebrew “relational database with an admin section”

(tags: cms_research intranet)

Lots of good tips, but this line rang true from previous experience: “Coworkers can develop envy or mistrust in an employment environment where only a few are given the option to telecommute.”

(tags: productivity)

and useful tips for ME, assuming I ever get the opportunity to telework again.

“women’s reluctance was based on an entirely reasonable and accurate view of how they were likely to be treated if they did”

(tags: gender society money)

I’m sure this would make Shelley tear her hair out (or at least roll her eyes), but now I have a mental metaphor for RDF: microformats on steroids. 🙂

(tags: microformat web_dev to-read to-do reference)

Superbia! — which I read a while ago and would like to get back to.

(tags: urban_studies local olympia ena to-read)

An interesting note about this issue — two articles about writing, sure, but also two articles by women.

(tags: writing web_dev gender)

Paula & Steve went to St Chad’s cathedral recently. also: patron saint of medicinal springs?!

(tags: weird history personal)

just remembering my old PDQ Bach tapes. I haven’t heard The Seasonings since I was in high school. ::sigh::

(tags: arts personal)

Dylan continues to be f’ing funny, tho not on his own blog. As for Seafair, it’s like Lakefair down here, only in Oly it’s loggers/farmers vs. hippies. (Don’t get me started.)

(tags: funny local seattle olympia society)

that sounds nummy.

(tags: food recipes chicken)

there. that’s what I want.

(tags: home bed)

neat! If I had a sewing machine…and knew how to sew…I’d love to make something like it.

WTF? “When asked, Mr. Korb hides his head in his hands and replies: ‘Please, whatever you do, don’t ask me that question.'”

(tags: weird politics society)

connection has been weirdly intermittent. need to figure out WTF is wrong.

(tags: home misc_tech to-do)

need to figure out how to look at router info.

(tags: home misc_tech to-do)

nice concept. my very first actual site design (c. 1998) used a house metaphor, with rooms for different subjects. the splash page was a blue outline of a house. (memories….)

(tags: web_dev philosophizing)

Actually, it sounds like he would have been quite good there. Okay, maybe I should have gone. But dude: a weekend? Also, trying to compile some info and ideas for my boss….

(tags: creditunion)

“The subtitle of the article — “some institutions aren’t realizing all that Web 2.0 has to offer” — is generous beyond belief.” heh.

(tags: creditunion web_dev)

actually a ton of potentially useful items here.

(tags: wordpress to-read to-do)

C took a ton of classes from her when he was at UWT. fascinating stuff.

(tags: society personal politics)

sigh. I’m trying to figure out how to deal with the gift subscriptions Elizabeth & Mom gave us for Xmas.

(tags: personal gaming to-do)

I’m looking for Mona Janson, who used to work at the Children’s Museum of Tacoma.

(tags: personal)

a wealth of info here, for later.

(tags: marketing email-newsletter email)

I hope he’s joking….

(tags: weird misc_tech funny eco)

not really into this right this second, but I probably should read it relatively soon.

(tags: information_architecture web_dev intranet)

maybe I should have gone, even tho it was over a weekend. also, I think I remember seeing the principles on something I got at WSECU, but not here.

(tags: creditunion to-read)

OMG. also, I have part of a pint of Americone Dream in my freezer. it’s really tasty.

(tags: funny)

66 out of 100. not too bad, although a few strange results. probably one of the better results for a non-urban, west coast location.

(tags: urban_studies)

hell yeah. now with data!

(tags: web_dev design)

good points on care of volunteers. (I have a theory about nonprofit leadership & burnout. but it’s very very cynical.)

(tags: nonprofit)

some quirky ideas.

(tags: creditunion)

fun little clips, and some food for thought.

(tags: marketing)

heh.

(tags: funny web_dev)

the actual article in question. I was surprised, several years ago, to hear a group of users of a site clamor for drop-downs. Only the two of us webbish folks were opposed. So I dunno.

(tags: web_dev)

“Verne Winchell, Established Winchell’s Doughnuts – 1934” No kidding. Also: mmmm, donut….

(tags: weird californication personal history)

“She has told her husband and children they need to keep [her books] at least 10 years before they can be discarded” — I got Dad’s copy of LOTR 14 years after his death, when Mom was cleaning.

(tags: politics personal)

the person I’d be really curious to find is my father’s first stepfather.

(tags: history personal reference)

that reminds me: I have a book to pick up at the library. (I have a list in pocket word on my mda of books I want to read.)
