I’m back and it seems

August 20, 2001 by Michael Boyle

that I missed a lot of fun and not-so-fun stuff while I was away. Chief among the fun things seems to have been Photoshop Tennis hosted by coudal partners inc between Zeldman and Taylor. [via too many to mention]

Always nice to find

a primer on the web – someplace to get a buncha links and commentary about a specific subject. A very nice one I found via Scripting News today is called Learning about the DMCA by Jeremy Bowers.

I’m still here!

August 15, 2001 by Michael Boyle

Yes, I am alive, but very busy. And I’m going away for a couple of days starting tomorrow – my brother’s getting married down in the US of A.

While I’m gone you should take a look at Wood s lot which surely features some of the finest weblogging around.

Just got back from

August 12, 2001 by Michael Boyle

a couple of days in the country at a cottage without electricity, with a privy out back, and folks who make some lovely music. Anyhow I was half dreading coming back, as there were a couple of little nit-picky things I had to do soon, if not tonight.

One of them was to register my copy of Sig Software’s Drop Drawers, which gives me popup folder functionality in OS X. A good little app, and something I’m happy to pay $15 for through Kagi. And it turned out to be the easiest thing in the world to register the copy on my box. I just copied a long text block from the email they sent me and started the app. It read the clipboard, saw that my code was there and that’s it – the thing was registered. Beautiful in its simplicity. A nice way to ease into the week – other times I’ve had nightmares with non-functioning registration procedures and such.

I just came across

xrefer subtitled “the web’s reference engine” via Phil Essing’s sector404.org. Could this be the Google of vetted reference works? Hope so.
