Hey! Dave Hyatt who worked on Mozilla (and has now moved to Apple) wrote the Shadowrun supplement Renraku Arcology: Shutdown. I don’t know which of the two is cooler (probably the Mozilla stuff, but I like Mozilla more than I like Shadowrun), but this strikes me as major geek cred.

However, if you have a domain, you can probably just search it using the “site:domainname.org” as part of the query, no?
Tried it on google.co.il with www.sf-f.org.il. Seems to work.

Too busy playing with the blog templates and style sheet to bother with actually writing anything.
Spent yesterday writing a review of Hero Wars for the Gargoyle, and then went out late for a visit to Hershko’s LARP.
While it was cool, Pelli’s comment that those Vampire meetings are starting to look like an event organized for Microsoft employees does ring true.
Also, this outing caused much domestic strife, although Suzie is apparently not divorcing me just yet.
On Thursday Suzie gave a reading at the Raanana public library. It went very well, after an initial excitment she got into the swing of things, and in the second half she had the whole audience laughing.
There was an accompanying musician who actually sang a Polish march (“Marshal Dombrowski’s March”?), which was very bizzare but fit wonderfully. Also, a lot of Suzie’s old friends showed up, which was nice.
I should have invited more of my friends – Assi would have enjoyed it, I bet.
This is starting to look like my campaign’s recap, or a journal of gibberish. Damn.
MovableType, take 1
After futzing about with writing my own blogging-tool (see, it should be written in Perl, because Perl rocks, and it should run on my desktop, uploading the files by ftp, because Perl support on Corky is sorta weak, but it should also let me synchronize the data through the web server, so I can work on it both from home and from work, and… ), I decided to give Movable Type a spin.
The problem is that MT uses DB_File, and Bo can’t install that on corky because of the afforementioned crappy Perl installation. So I figure I’ll set MT up on a local web server, and then FTP everything up to corky.
Does this work? Let’s give it a spin….
