The next party on the internet is ChatRoulette, a site that puts your face in front of someone else’s, like speed dating online. Here come the academics:
I have third-party hosting for this site, so I wasn’t effected by the recent WordPress outage, although my hosting provider had their own shut down for a few hours recently. The real problem had been that I couldn’t upload anything using Google Chrome for Mac. It’s extremely annoying to have to open a whole new application just to post anything.
Fortunately, everything appears resolved at the moment. I upgraded to WordPress 2.9.2 and the whole thing is just honky dory. Even using Chrome. Time to try some new extensions?
Just downloaded this sucker from iTunes, which is interesting because it came out today. Why is that interesting? Because, in the United States, music comes out on a Tuesday. Amazon.co.uk had this release al ready for download and old-style delivery, but not Amazon.com. I have had issues with European release dates not being honored by my iTunes account (surely iTunes knows I’m in the US), but today, no problem. So, if you are ready for over-the-top keyboard madness from Storloekken et al, go have at it. So far, sounds like another monstrous effort.
