Totally Unhealthy Winter Comfort Food: Creamed Ramen

By Giania • Jan 18th, 2009 • Category: Food

Hot:

Today the sky opened up and dumped at least a foot and a half of snow on New Hampshire, and it shows no signs of stopping. After unburying my car in anticipation of lightening further shoveling work, I found myself craving all kinds of junk food. My solution to this problem was a quick and [...]



Amy Goes Betty-Homemaker: Holiday Edition

By AmHm • Dec 2nd, 2008 • Category: Guides

Hot:

Well, it’s that time of year again. Holiday Fun Time! And, if you’re anything like me, you usually wait until the weekend before your holiday of choice to get your shopping done… er, started. You brave the mall with a bunch of crazed maniacs and a hangover, and inevitably, you never quite find what you’re [...]



Ask a G1 Owner: Get Answers to Android Questions

By Giania • Nov 19th, 2008 • Category: Recursion

Hot:

I’ve had my G1 since the day it debuted, and I’ve probably done everything with it by now. (Ok, well, maybe not EVERYTHING, let’s be reasonable here.)
If you have any questions about the HTC G1, Android, how it works with T-Mobile, or any combination of elements, pose your questions here and I’ll do my best [...]



An Opera and Chrome Memory Usage Comparison Shot

By Giania • Sep 4th, 2008 • Category: Browsers

Hot:

I realize that everyone’s probably already sick to death of hearing about Chrome, but I thought I’d chime in anyway.
Here’s a memory usage shot of Chrome versus Opera.

It’s not really a fair comparison, as the same things aren’t open, but I realized that with the way I [...]



QED Group – Last.FM Topographical Map of Friend Compatibility

By Giania • Jul 8th, 2008 • Category: Internet Toys

Hot:

Edit! Commenter Jess rightly pointed out the fact that I neglected (which was rude of me and I apologize) to actually link to the place where this neat data visualization can be found! It’s from qed-portal.com.
I don’t know about you but I love the fact that my friends listen to notably different stuff. It [...]



Occult Toy: Tarot Spread Generator

By Giania • May 19th, 2008 • Category: Internet Toys

Hot:

I was poking around for more information on Liber AL Vel Legis earlier and found SourceryForge.org (I c wut they did thar). A little further sniffing about turned up this really neat Tarot spread generator. Though still under construction, it offers four types of readings: single card, 3 card relating to influence, 3 card relating [...]

Bookmarklet to Enhance Your Flickr Experience

By Giania • Mar 11th, 2008 • Category: Fnord

Hot:

Traipsing about my collection of RSS links, as I am oft wont to do, I discovered one labeled Blackr. Despite the obvious Web 2.0 name, it struck me as curious and I proceeded.
Blackr is described as a way to view Flickr content without all the noise of navigation, comments, and various whatnots. There weren’t [...]



Holiday-shmoliday: V-Day Wallpaper 2

By Giania • Feb 5th, 2008 • Category: Art

Hot:

I went in to reproduce the first wallpaper in a more common format and went and made a different one entirely. Luckily for you this one is in 1024×768, which is much more common than the previous one which I have yet to doctor into something more practical.
For this I found myself inspired by the [...]



Holiday-shmoliday: V-Day Wallpaper

By Giania • Feb 4th, 2008 • Category: Art, History

Hot:

Let it never be said that I throw complete disfavor upon arbitrary, stupid holidays based around the martyrdom of one of three possible guys in order to overwrite pagan tradition. Far from it, any excuse to get more color in my dreary winter, and of course free candy, is a good excuse.
That said I have [...]
