There.com's Latest Psychological stab in the iris with a vinegar soaked rusty knitting neeedle
Come on lads, FIX IT!!
The ups and downs of a 3D online existance continues to be surprising, yet merciless. There.com shut it's gates on earlier this week in readiness for the newest version. Out of Beta and into version 1.
Now it open......nearly. There are a LOT inside as of this moment (according to the Krysss.Com offical news anchor Sandhya, reporting Live and direct from inside There.com)
If it wasn't for the amazing deal they are doing for anyone who signs up before the 12th of Oct, I think they would have lost a lot today!!
Yours truly is sticking this one out to the bitter (yet fashionable) end.....

OH MY GOD! OH MY GOD! OH MY GOD! OH MY GOD! OH MY GOD!
OH MY GOD! OH MY GOD! OH MY GOD! OH MY GOD! (ok that's enough, I think they get the point)
WOW WOW WOW WOW WOW WOW WOW WOW WOW WOW WOW HEY! Did you hear me??
Ok, GREAT NEWS (Not to worry folks he's running out of capital letters) There.com just released it's pricing plan and it's going to be a measley $30 for a LIFETIME membership, with all the premium features thrown in. You too can get in on this if you sign up before October 12th 2003, but I'm sure you don't want to. Well, just one thing that this service gives a very real Voice Over IP service with unlimited conferencing possibilities. That is the only sensible application that I could think of that might catch the attention of the thousands of regular readers here.
You know what? Who cares, if you don't get in There now, you really will be missing out on something that really is about to change the world (and this time for the better)
Well at least he calmed down near the end

There.com coming back VERY soon
I don't think I can take this strain again...
There.com is off for a couple of days while they near the roll out of it's newest version of the software, plenty promised, but after the recent... 'suckyness' of the end of Public Beta 3, event, I hope that all is better in this newer version, with regard to server loads...

School!!
The little cherub started a new school today. Immense amount of newness, that apparently were of no concern to them (Yeah riiiight) so it seems I will have to wait until later to NOT get the full story of how new it all seemed. As hey, I knew that anyway, and ----Insert teenage type sneering remark here---- etc etc.
I think kids must having amazingly strong eyebrows to be able to stand up to the amount of useage they get in the next few years of being raised more, than they are at rest!!
Just watch for that "I'm tracking the arc of an overhead object" look, as well as the face that appears to be almost constantly smelling something approaching rotten zombie flesh, which can be purchased at all major outlets of "Like I am so totally not with you people" or similarly themed stores....

Avoidance
I put off a lot of things lately and now I am getting them done. This should not feel so good, as I should have done them anyway... so I am at a loss as to what to feel about the whole AvoidanceGate thing....
Got round to ticking off from my tatty old to-do list, installing Linux, in two flavours, and a nice dual boot to er... boot.
The Blogger input thing, crashed out on me earlier so you are being saved from a longer textual drivel than you got this time round (lucky eh?) but I am sure some of that previous gibber will spawn again lower down this entry..
Going back to my geekier roots, I would have to say that knowing embaressingly little about Linux lead to intensive research on how to even get the damn thing on the box, (Oh no, he said BOX instead of PC...watch it, something's coming....) let alone USE it in any meaningful way.
The reasoning for all this intensive installation and all round serveryness, was because later on this year, Windows98 becomes unsupported by Microsoft (Hey, why didn't he say M$ like all the other kids??) and there are going to be a lot of community centers with a lot of sub 1Ghz PC's, with zero to buy the extreme licenses offered by M$ (Oh, he said it).
So if they use a free operating system that still gets the jobs done, that apparently people need computers for, they would be saved, groovy!
(Except that nobody really knows what a community center computer lab is for...research will take years to uncover the mysteries, watch out for it on the Discovery Channel)
It has been an education as I now know what ROOT is all about, and oh yes, I do got it, (The wit of a 400lb Star Trek Fan astounds more and more) more to the point being YOU HAVE TO, to be able to do this properly. And should I tell you what it is, er...........(well?)....No, sorry I can't. You do the work and you to can have it.
Hey I feel more empowered (Read Geek) than ever before... Just like that chap in the movie Signs said "They make up strange little symbols and languages to make themselves feel important" or something like that. That's what's happening. And you know it's geek because it's computers, not football or another sport, where someone that can tell you every play since Moses came down from the mountain. No, they are considered an expert, and if you know how to turn on a computer and install something vaguely useful you must be a geek. Listen up sports fans, at least the geeks are actually DOING what it is they supposedly know about, not sitting on the couch, telling their only 2 chums HOW they WOULD have done it!
Hah! (Oh come on, this is weak).....yes it is rather, perhaps I should leave it there for now...
