I love tiny buttons, I don't know why, but they just make me feel good. And to feed my sickness, I found Taylor McKnight's Steal These Buttons.

So many buttons, so little space...

For some reason the guys at Muse have closed up shop (taking with them the same service at DivX). I was adrift in a sea of quiet... no music at work. 3500 songs on a PC that I didn't have access to.

About a billion Google searches later I found MP3Mystic. It's not the prettiest program in the world, but it sets up a self-contained server on your music PC and allows you remote access to the tunes from anywhere. The single user version is free (what a price) or you can buy a multi-user license for either $9.99 or $29.99. So far it's working really well, I'll just have to come up with a nice template so I don't have to look at the unpurty HTML layouts :)

Posting this to my blog from the new FireFox browser (used to be FireBird) and I must say that it's pretty darn slick. Faster, still with the same great developer tools like CSS edit, but there's also a new DOM Inspector. Talk about tasty stuff :)

I'll be starting to move to FireFox for my primary browser I think... time to start doing the tabbed browsing thing.

If you're seeing a white matte around the image above, it's because IE doesn't support PNG alpha transparency. FireFox does :).

I'm generally an apolitical person, but the 2000 election was a bit of an eye opener for me. I found it amazing that just one man could tip the balance between Bush and Gore, and that was Nader... So to keep Bush out of office this next election, be sure to let Nader know he should throw his support behind someone who can win, instead of siphoning votes from them.

Spider Food has risen from the dead :). After a long personal hiatus, JK Bowman is back at it, hot on the trail of every search engine out there. He's also upgraded and improved his forums, and is starting to build some lively discussion about the goings on at Google and the other big engines. There's a lot of movement in the industry lately with rumors of a Google IPO and AOL dropping them from their search listings. Fun fun fun :).
