Hello Codeine my old Friend…

by Scott on July 28, 2010

Alright, no more posting what my posting schedule is. From now on I’m going to just wing it. Every time I make plans for rolling a series of posts I end up needing morphine or it’s more easily prescribed cousin codeine in order to get back on my feet.

Thankfully this time it’s not anything major like a kidney, it was just a tooth that broke down the root that had to get pulled. Then didn’t want to heal.

It’s been a long miserable month.

I’ve learned that when I’m under the weather the last thing I want to do is be on the computer for any period of time. I really need to get a moleskin or something else to doodle with.

June numbers

by Scott on July 1, 2010

Publishing numbers is something few sites do and I have been kicking around the idea for a while now. Hopefully you will find this helpful, encouraging or at least entertaining.  This is a bit of an experiment but I will try to post numbers through the end of the year or so, good or bad.

In an effort to start writing better I’m also going to go to a Monday-Wednesday-Friday posting schedule, with possibly smaller bits on the weekend.  It takes me quite a while to write as it doesn’t come naturally to me.

Twitter #travel is like heroine

June 17, 2010

Not that I’ve ever done Heroine, I haven’t. But I seriously, I really don’t know how anyone gets anything done while they have a twitter client like tweetdeck running. The list of people I follow is still meager, but Twitter is so very ADD for me. It would probably help is I didn’t have 8 [...]

Is LinkWithin Causing Facebook Issues?

June 16, 2010

Many people have commented on Twitter about their Facebook thumbnails dropping out and not displaying when they post a link on their wall. This is my theory: it is the dynamic images that are causing it. LinkWithin is just the first service that comes to mind.  The way LinkWithin works is every time someone visits [...]

The Best Flight I Ever Missed, the last Part

June 5, 2010

Continued from:  The Best Flight I Ever Missed, Part 3 (or I <heart> Delta) While I’m laying in bed I remember hearing about a volcano going off and didn’t think much of it until my mom came. She told me I was very lucky that I didn’t make that flight. It was then that I [...]
