Ok....I'm just gonna give up on Radio. Wordpress is more better.

Reset your links: http://www.ibiblio.org/griffey/wp/

If I ever figure out how to forward, I'll set it up. Ibib is being a bit weird about it.

Hmmm...problems with the forwarding. Since Ibib is virutally hosting my domain (www.jasongriffey.net) the forwarding is a little odd. I'll put in a word with ibib help to see what's going on and how to handle this, but in the meantime....those of you linking to this, please update your links to: http://www.ibiblio.org/griffey/wp as that is the blog I'll be updating most frequently.

Hopefully, I can figure the forwarding thing out, or maybe just set up a subdomain or something (like blog.jasongriffey.net or something).

As some of you may have noticed, I'm slowly transitioning off of this blog, and onto a new, cleaner, Wordpress styled blog. I'll be updating my .htaccess to forward (which should keep everything happy, without anyone needing to change bookmarks). So stay tuned.

New Homepage!

Ok gang...it's group review time.

I overhauled my homepage for the upcoming job search. What do the masses think?

(as well, the more observant among you may notice that my blog link goes to a slightly different address than the old http://www.jasongriffey.net/blog/ That is because I'm slowly weaning myself off of Radio Userland, and starting to use Wordpress. Please feel free to update links accordingly.)

In case you weren't aware....

The moment that you've all been waiting for: way too many pictures of our trip to VA, complete with humorous commentary. Finally, everyone can sleep again. But only AFTER you look at them.

Check them out.

Amazon.com is in the process of digitizing 120,000 books, and making the FULL TEXT searchable online. The kicker? You can't access the entire book digitally...just the pages that are returned for your search. This is in an attempt to increase the utility of their commercial venture. So....it could be better, but the utility will still be incredible.

Full story from Wired....here's an excerpt:

"Amazon's Alexandrian scheme hinges on the insight that physical books can be turned into electronic databases and then – in the retail process – turned back into physical books. This is one of the boldest maneuvers yet in an intense commercial competition, but for all its cunning, this is a civilized, even civilizing war, one that builds libraries rather than burns them. "
