In "2006 Roll Call:"

29! *also returns to lurking via RSS*

In "Six Apart, parent company of Movable Type and TypePad, are buying LiveJournal."

LJ has a statistics page which provides, among other things, an age breakdown. I use LJ, and there are a lot of teenagers, but the median age for those on my friends-list would be in the mid to upper 20s, I bet. I'd actually prefer LJ not to go the way of MT. My hope is that they don't.

In " Tsunami Relief: Charity Efficiency and Transparency Ratings"

I prefer the Red Cross, having worked with them a bit in the past. I donated $1000 for the Tsunami Relief Fund and trust them to spend it on helping, more than I'd trust, say, that guy. lol

In "What is happening to me?"

Oops. My bad. Sorry. Well, it's worth the accidental double-post. :x

In "Meet the Beastles"

Thanks, Johnny Hazard. Much appreciated. :D

In "Hacking Coke Machines"

I don't care about getting a free soda from a machine. I don't think this is floating around so people can steal, either; reading the article you'll see that's not really possible. It's cool because it's something you can do, practical or not; hacking doesn't have to be negative. When I buy electronics, I look for stuff with a lot of features. Will I use most of them? No. But I like knowing I could if I wanted to. Just knowing you can do it is the point. IMO

Does anyone know if this is being mirrored anywhere? I'm in the Middle East and the Army blocks a lot of websites (including this one, as "mp3 and Streaming Audio"), so I can't download those.
