Geek FUBAR
General June 27th, 2005
Ahem. Yes, the SQL database did not like all you zombies looking at it. It pouted and stamped its foot. It whined. And then it held its breath until it passed out.
This is a temp fix. Be nice to this site. Like the sun, don’t stare at it too long. Like Jenga, don’t pull the wrong support out. Like a bad simile, don’t talk like Mur…
Thanks for your patience. I’ll be back online Wednesday.
Geek Fu #29
Podcasting June 26th, 2005
Still no essay, but much discussion on Origins, work, Howl’s Moving Castle, a plug, and more. Fresh essay at The Dragon Page.
If you’re interested in a Geek Fu Action Grip t-shirt, drop me a line and let me know. I have prototypes and will start ordering them for real if there’s enough interest. I can get pictures up soon, if you need.
Thank you Nicole Simon!

Nicole started hosting my podcasts at just the right time. When my server was at 91% of used bandwidth, Penny Arcade linked to me after checking out the web comic Alpha Shade (and their podcast, Alpha Rant.)
Thanks, Nicole. And welcome, Penny Arcade readers.
If you get the latest podcast twice, I apologize. My server is screaming at me, and I switched the RSS to point to Nicole Simon’s server, as she is lending me space and bandwidth. Thanks, Nicole, you rock! If RSS makes you download the file twice, I apologize.

I wanted to have a guest star for the next podcast, and he had to leave town to see his father-in-law. So we’re recording tomorrow night. Thanks for your patience.
Geek Fu #27 - No Shame
Essays, Podcasting June 13th, 2005
Actually the podcast - the essay - has to do with writer’s block. But the very first part of the podcast shows I have no shame. So vote! Vote for the boobs!
For the record, because I am paranoid in retrospect, I wish to clarify the following things: I am not saying I came up with Podcast Outlaws first. I thought it was a cool idea because it reminded me of something I wanted to do. That’s all.
If you want a sneak peek at what I’m reviewing this week on the podcast, check out the Email Mystery.
More on Saturday.
In Which I Show Off My Ig’nernt Side
Podcasting, Geek! GEEEEK! June 8th, 2005
How the crap is This WEEK in TECH #1 on podcast alley when I haven’t downloaded any shows? I’ve checked the feed three times, and it’s not seeing any shows. I really doubt people people would be voting for a show that isn’t really there, so the problem is obviously on my end…
If anyone could help, I’d apprecaite it. I’ve been wanting to check it out.
