Nothing’s like having our three kids spending the week at my mom’s to make the house feel eerily huge and empty. That’s quite a parenting catch 22: you’re glad to have a semblance of peace and quiet for the first few hours, then you start missing them like crazy. :-)
New Year 2008 Panoramas: always an awesome destination of choice when the new year starts. Maybe I’ll realize one of my dreams and attend Rio’s massive celebration one of these days.
From “The War Against Live Blogging“:
The [new NCAA authored] policy provides for limited blogging by credentialed bloggers only. I.e., American football bloggers get a maximum of 3 posts per quarter, and 1 at halftime. For baseball, it’s once per inning, for golf — 10 per day. Bloggers are also required to submit their coverage to the NCAA’s Blog Central directory and to include the NCAA logo and link on their posts.
I’ll be honest, I won’t be affected by this directly since I’m not into sports blogging, but… wow! They so remind me of the hilarious late 90’s EULAs that tried to forbid anyone from linking to web sites without the owner’s prior consent. Fu-nay.
From “Damien Katz: New Gig“:
Great news! I’ve accepted a permanent, full-time job with IBM. My primary duties are (drumroll….) CouchDB! So all the stuff I’ve been doing up until now for free I’ll be doing full time and be getting paid for it! Yee Haw!
That is fantastic news for both Damien and the CouchDB project. Shaweet!
