Tumblr Experiment: Over

About Me

If code is poetry, then CSS is The Iliad. In the original Greek.

I'm a writer, reviewer, and lover of technology, gadgets, gizmos, and electronics that make my life better. I'm currently the news editor for LAPTOP Magazine. I spend my day steeped in eReaders, netbooks, Linux, science fiction, and curly hair products. I'm a ChicGeek.

The OLPC laptops would not run a bourgeois operating system like Windows. Instead, they would run Sugar, a special version of Linux, the people’s platform. They would even use Marxist technology like mesh networking, which shares an Internet connection “from each computer according to its ability, to each according to its need.

Torch is a stopgap measure at best. It can only hope to stem the tide of BlackBerry defectors, but clearly it has no hope of stealing customers from iPhone and Android.

Tumblr Experiment: Over

Well, over as in I won’t have the Tumblr posts auto-feeding as blog posts here. They don’t really work as regular blog posts, though they do work as Tumblr posts. So I’ll keep both blogs, but instead I’ll find a way to put Tumblr on the sidebar or something similar.

I may erase the Delicious links and use Tumblr for that purpose, instead.
