The Pitch: It's like A Clean Well-Lighted Space meets Barton Fink!  


Oh sure, I'm behind in a crazy, crazy way with this week's newsletter, but at least I've got even crazier room to work with now my new monitor is in place. All that extra space is going to make working with the blackline immeasurably easier... provided I actually start in on it...

Picasa is proving to be mighty rad, and now that I was able to straighten shit out so my card reader works, I used it to get a bunch of pictures up on The Unclear Eye which hasn't been updated in, oh, I dunno, six months or something. The problem with uploading photos I find is it's such an all-or-nothing proposition: I either want to post 300 at a time, or zero. So I've got a handful to post today, maybe more on Friday if I get a shot at it before work.

Also in the mighty rad department: Firefox. I was using it before I switched over to the new computer, but I hadn't messed with any of the extension thingies. FireFTP is a million times easier to use than IE's FTP program (although I'm a little suspicious at some of the errors I've gotten in transferring large numbers of pages at once) and with the Blog This! extension, maybe I'll even start using my Research page again. That would be keen.

So. New computer set-up? Rad. Picasa? Rad. Firefox? Very rad. Procrastinating when you've got a very tight time deadline and a busy couple of days? Not rad at all, my friend. Not rad at all.
