Internet


Here I sit.. freezing in my chair at work. The phone is not ringing, and thats ok. The thermostat above me says its 71 but I know its lying.. I hate when devices do that!

ok, now it’s even worse, every minute the phone is ringing… and disconnecting as I answer it.

Today I made a decision to drop the home phone and DSL and go back to Comcast for internet. I am sharing my connection with my neighbor Kevin and 1.5 Mb is just not cutting it at all. I cant even get pages to load if he is connected to my WIFI.

How does one tell their employer that they are jumping ship on internet because the service is too slow?

Sometimes in life we make choices that seem good; but we end up shooting ourselves in the foot. I made one of these choices when I decided to let my employer host my website.   After around 6 weeks of trying to get my blog and site back up and running I moved my entire domain this weekend.

GoDaddy with its everpresent logins is not a part of my life anymore. Cybermesa is no longer holding my data… just my DNS at this point.   If I am connected to the internet via cybermesa.com I cannot access my web stuffs. I am told its because they have not updated the name servers from internic since yesterday morning.. this is generally done every 24 hours.

I guess there is safety in this.. I don’t have to worry about them reading my blog!!

once in a while we all need to take a break… be it from work, from TV or even from our families and pets.. When we do this we generally do not go so far as to disconnect ourselves from technology however.

As a lot of you know I recently gave myself a nice tech fix with a new Samsung Omnia Windows Mobile phone.  This is a wonderful little device, however it lacked in “social networking” availability, and I do so hate having to log into Twitter.com with the little stylus thingy each time I want to check my messages (lazy phone user.. yeah, I know). I started testing twitter apps that are designed for Windows Mobile and stumbled on a real gem of a phone application, Twikini designed by Trinket Software.

Not only do I have instant access to my twitter, the application actually causes my phone to tweet like    a   bird each time I have a post from a friend.   In fact, if you look at the sidebar to your left here <—– you will    see a few posts that I actually made using Twikini!

I LOVE it!

Yeah, I know that I need a life, but Twikini is a part of it now!

What ever happened to community involvement? Have we forgotten how to talk face to face with those around us?

I have come to the realization that the World Wide Web has become a HUGE gameboard that only serves to stupify those that have nothing better to do then get off their lazy asses and actually interact one on one with each other.

Earlier today I deleted my facebook account. MySpace will be the next one to go unless those that I interact with can show that there is such a thing as original thought and that this hasn’t all become mindless cut n paste.

I know you all have it in you… you are supposed to be human.. lets interact without memes and crap…

In harmony with the changing attitude and peace in my life I have decided to start this blog over with the new version of WordPress.

Please stay tuned for changes!
