Some cool links & new glassrope stuff…

• First things first: my connect page is up! What's on it? Well, I've got a nifty little guestbook, plus my email address, ICQ # and AOL (blecch!) Instant Messenger handle. Why? Because I enjoy talking to people. So, feel free to give me your opinions of the site (be kind…& if you can't be kind, at least be tactful) or just to get in contact with me, 'kay?

• So, I get home from work on Monday & waiting for me on AIM is a message that, surprisingly, is not a solicitation for porn. Instead, it's from Cleo's Apartment, an unsigned band out of Des Moines, Iowa, asking me to check out their tunes. I did, & they're pretty good in a spacy, jazzy, smart & hip-hop kinda way.

• Are you one of those borderline obssessive individuals who judges a movie more by its continuity than anything else? I am, sometimes, & this page caters to such people…caters to us with a vengeance.

• Personally, I'm a technophile. I walk around most of the day vaguely disappointed that here it is the year 2001 & I have no flying car & am not hanging out on a space station. However, every now & again something comes along that makes me think I might not be as far away from meeting George Jetson as I think.

• On a final, serious note, the folks over at The Morning News are, apparently, going through a rough time. For those of you who don't know, TMN is one of the finest digests of smart, often (but not exclusively) web-related news around. So drop by, join the update mailing list and make sure you wish Bill a heartfelt "Get well soon."
