Cool link there... though I figure that if I vent much more then I'm just going to be running on empty. It's the barely contained rage and frustration that keeps me going.

Re: Why I blog

I too use that method... get it out and worry about the punctuation later... or never...

I skipped school so that I could actually learn something, it's panning out pretty well.

Re: Pay for a blog feed? Not going to happen

"it’s hard to monetize a blog if no one ever comes to the website and looks at the feeds"

Read: It's hard to make money from trying to sell something that no one wants.

Simple economics... make good things, get readers, make money... not the other way round

Hey, thanks for liking my comic enough to link to it, I hope you find more on the site too...

I've just been watching your films and looking at your photographs – top stuff, if I could take pictures as cool as that I'd give up drawing in a flash.

Re: Stop Calling My Generation Dumb

Every sucessive generation will be labled as less intelligent, less active and less resourceful by the preceeding one.

It's a natural by-product of realising that you are going to be replaced and that your values die when you do and that everything you have worked for over your entire life means so little because like everything else it was stored on an out-dated medium.

It'll happen to you too...

Then again, from what I've heard, the next generation really is dumb and lazy...

My father – son, you should have more names than Satan, that way, when they come for you, you can say you are someone else.

Re: Confessions of a born-again RSS subscriber

I suffered RSS burnout... I was getting maybe a hundred new updates every 10 mins... I had to strip back.

Still, if you haven't reached your limit, The Flowfield Unity is always good for a once-a-day update. ;)

It's an interesting strategy, on their behalf, to extend the fiction in new ways. I like it, personally, I just wish more fictional characters would appear. I'd certainly follow the exploits of some of my favourite literary characters.

Re: The Religious Right Is Going To Boycott Google In 3…2…1…

Surely the religious right don't need google searches... everything they need to know is in the bible...

I might start printing bibles with a rainbow spine.

Re: How Cuil Is It to Misspell Your Brand Name?

Adam_Y — Tue, 29 Jul 2008 10:58:23 -0000

I spend all day playing around with words at work, making them sound funny and look funny... but y'know, I didn't realise that it was supposed to be pronounced 'cool'... I had, 'see you ill', 'coo-ill' and a host of others...

I doubt this one is going to do very well, I've been terstingg it on sites I know, including my own and it's nowhere near as accurate as it should be.

Is that the 'never-ending size' cup from Starbucks? There is no top, it just reaches up into the sky... makes drinking it a minor problem though.

Good call, I'm a recent convert to dofollow, I'm really hoping that it will help my frequent commenters... it's nice to give a bit back.

I thought forest fresh was just a cry for help.

Re: MySpace Launches Comic Books Community

Adam_Y — Wed, 28 Feb 2007 08:43:59 -0000

It just looks like a modded group to me... and with so many memebers, I doubt that it will have the co-hesion of comicspace/vine.

I don't agree with radio dying out... it'll change, radically for sure, but it will persist, mostly because of its very low-tech nature.

Local stations run mostly by enthusiasts mostly delivering local content will probably be the result.

My reasoning behind this, especialyy concerning the UK, is that one of the greatest audiences for radio is in-car. The internet really isn't much use to a driver, nor any of the visual media...

If anything, the internet and mp3 technology have enabled micro-stations, such as my local (Diversity FM) to operate. the low costs, the lack of need for storage space and record archives, it's all about enabling the indy broadcaster... I tried to write a post about that: http://theflowfieldunity.com/2008/07/14/power-p...

As far as I can tell, alcoholic beverages have been a great influence on advertising. Easily some of my favourite adverts, the beer industry has consistently mixed sex and humour to great effect whilst developing what is now known as viral marketing (coming from those 'water cooler' aimed adverts of the late 80s).

I like these ones, they have charm.

I agree, most machines/computers are just waiting for an excuse to pounce on you.
