I hang out a lot on OS X Audio, a site dedicated to audio on the Mac. The news aren’t updated often enough, but the forums are very active. Anyway, just before and after the US November elections, there were many heated threads debating US politics, some of which I eagerly participated in. (They eventually…

Come clean
Come clean. I hate to point to a crass marketing ploy to sell soap, but this is well done and oddly soothing.

Started a large translation with a very tight schedule yesterday. Posting here will be all but interrupted for a week or so :(. You might want to subscribe to the RSS feed (on the lower right, at least at the time of this writing) so you don’t come here for nothing and to be sure…

To Do
Work on the appearance of sknoblog. I just stole one of the designs lying around the web and changed the main color to my site’s orange. I’m not sure where I want to go yet (see previous post), and I’m not sure I want to keep all the stuff to the right (I’m not sure…
