Month: November 2003

So I put up my counter around 10:30 last night and I’ve already gotten over 30 unique visitors. I realize 30 isn’t much compared to what a lot of sites get, but still 30 people in less than 24 hours? I must say I’m pretty happy.

Update (November 2003): I just realized that all the hits I got last night on the stairway to heaven thing don’t mean I’m always averaging that many hits, it just means that most likely I got all those hits after I told Andrew, a student in one of my classes, about the site and he likely told all his friends.

Update (November 2005): Looking at this post now is kind of funny considering I am currently averaging about 5000 unique visitors to my site per day. It’s amazing the changes that can happen in just two years.

Here is a link to a review of the new version of 3D Studio Max 6. I’m barely learning 5.1, but it looks cool all the same.

I think I figured out how to fix the University’s problem with their flash screen savers. All they need to do is put a blank text field overtop of their flash screen savers so that they will get the text-copy/paste menu instead of the About Macromedia Menu when people right click. They should pay me or something.

I talked to someone in IT. They said they are aware of the problem but at this point they don’t know how to get around it.

Can’t get on their website, but you can find their mailblog at http://groups.yahoo.com/group/boingboing-mailblog/

When people like Maher Arar are seized, jailed, interrogated without charges, on unspecified allegations of unspecified connections to unspecified terrorist groups, and tortured — why doesn’t anyone seem to want to do anything about it?
