playable art

We’ve been digging around the internet lately for some new games. Because, holy cow, will this cold weather ever stop? 80% chance of snow AGAIN today. We’ve been hunkered down in the yurt for what seems like forever, and immersing ourselves in the fabulous art of a new game has been a great [...]

In other news, I’m thinking about podcasting one of my novels. Just for fun. Although today I’ve been in and out of the tech-world, trying to fix my blog editor problem—turns out it’s a bug in the PHP my host uses, whatever the fuck that means, so I can’t fix it anyway, they [...]

The sad fact is that fixing ecto is probably not going to happen. I think wordpress 2.9 broke it. But too, late, I’ve gone and upgraded. If I’d known ecto would break, I would have bided my time in wordpress 2.8.x until they fixed it. I hope they plan to fix [...]

ppI love ecto, but that goat lice post nearly broke it. I don’t know what the problem is. I’m taking this moment of relative calm in the yurt to see if I can do a little troubleshooting…./pbr /

spammers suck

There’s been some problem at my webhost, massive spamming or something, and their servers are all clogged up, thus preventing me from getting into my control panel and stopping Akismet, the spamblocker on my blog’s comment section, from working. So I’ve been getting gobs of spam, masquerading as comments, to weed through every day. God, [...]

…and nearly wet myself with my geekgasm!
(It’s the one in the middle, between my beloved ipod touch, and my also beloved macbook. It’s a triumvirate of apply goodness!)
EXCEPT WHO THOUGHT OF THAT STUPID NAME???? I mean, really. iPad??? It sounds like something you use when you’re on the rag. Ew. What was wrong with iTablet? [...]
ipod touch / iphone games for little kids, part 2

A while ago, back when I first got my ipod touch (how did I ever live without it?), I wrote a post about gaming on the ipod with my kids. At the time there seemed to be very little out there on games for little people, and few games they could play. As with everything [...]

The time has come to reveal that lately, here at the yurt, we have a secret identity, a secret purpose, one we take very, very seriously.
We kill zombies.
I know I previously commented on a lack of zombie action here in yurtsville, but all that has changed in the last few weeks. Here is why.

i think in digital
Posted on July 14, 2009 - Filed Under geeklife | 4 Comments
I realized yesterday, with a start, that my thinking about books has shifted to a digital model, without my noticing it had happened. It freaked me out a little because, hey, I’m a book lover. My standard answer to “what do you want for [birthday/christmas/holiday/etc]?” has always been BOOKS. Or, in the last few years, [...]
