Chipping the web

Port 115 is used for sftp. The “s” stands for simple, not secure.

One of the more bleak prognostications for global warming (thanks for making my day, Paul).

Speaking of warming, Brent has some helpful hints for really heating things up.

Nick Carr on Marshall McLuhan’s electric media and how the web is and isn’t McLuhan’s vision incarnate.

Speaking of interactive media — iHate: automated troll content generator.

The Art of Hyperlinking. Is this link long enough for you?

I think we need to introduce homographic homophonic autantonyms into programming languages.

Sure, I can beat 1282 — how about 1189? I had a beer at Ye Olde Trip to Jerusalem with some folks from Interchange while I was in Nottingham on a Crusade business trip.

Brian responds to my meme tag on the Three Things You Can’t Let Go. I once knew a young lady who wouldn’t let go of the pillow, but I managed to avoid suffocation anyway.

Thanks for the link-love, Assaf and lazycoder!

You’re welcome, Brent. You may have noticed that The Ominous Comma is in my blogroll to the right, which means that it’s also in my feed reader subscriptions.

[...] Constancy: Shakespeare’s Sonnet 116 declares the constancy of true love. [...]
