Firefox Pimps for the Everyman (like me!)

By AmHm • Sep 17th, 2008 • Category: Browsers

Hot: Admittedly, I’m an Internet n00b (does anyone even say that anymore?) Sure, I was chatting away with the best of ‘em on AOL in 1995, but it’s only within the last year (since I began work at an internet marketing company) that I’ve thought to embrace any browser other than Internet Explorer, any email [...]



Cigarette Burns – A Tear Into weirdHolly

By Sketch E Whiteface • Sep 10th, 2008 • Category: Film

Hot: If someone reliable could tell me when in the future films would become solely based on finances it’d certainly save me the hassle of looking up articles on the Internet. If someone told me it would be next week I wouldn’t be shocked in the least since in it’s current state it’s just about [...]



Just when I thought we were taking steps forward…

By Guest Author • Sep 5th, 2008 • Category: Politics

Hot: Call this liberal horse hockey. Call this leftist ideology. Really, you can call it whatever you want, because I don’t give a flying shitcake. If what you get from this post goes anywhere near “anti-American” than you can feel confident that you have severely missed the point and there is a lonely noose in [...]

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.

Hot: Evening children, welcome to Clippings & Scribblings, a news entry with editorials. I’m Sketch E. Whiteface, and I’m an alcoholic… err, close enough.

NH Media Makers Minutes 08-10-08

By Giania • Aug 10th, 2008 • Category: Guides

Hot: My awesome Lorem Ipsum shirt provided by TeeFury, makers of fine, rare designer tshirts. First off, it was great to see everybody again! I had missed the last two Media Makers events and kicked myself pretty hard both times. Thanks to my cat and the fact that I have a memory like a (rusted) [...]

By Giania • Aug 7th, 2008 • Category: Internet Tools

Hot: Do you have RSS feeds for sites that you like, but they aren’t in your language? Don’t you wish you could get those feeds translated and delivered in the language you’re most comfortable reading? Of course you do! Well, the internet is full of surprises and helpful little whatnots, and one of those items [...]

Hot: Perusing through my feeds this morning, as I am wont to do, I discovered a blurb in Wired’s The Underwire about the whole MST3K crew putting in an appearance at this year’s Comic Con! Not only that, but they plan to do a live Rifftrax session of Plan 9 From Outer Space as well. [...]



URLtea Bites It Again

By Giania • Jun 9th, 2008 • Category: Internet Toys

Below is the text I got when visting the main site. Site Temporarily Unavailable We apologize for the inconvenience. [...]



Imitation Still Is the Sincerest Form of Flattery

By Giania • May 20th, 2008 • Category: Internet Toys

Hot: Fake Stephen Colbert, a twitter user posting under @stephentcolbert, has been unmasked. Luckily, the psuedostephen opted to share the reasoning behind this Twitter-Digg deception. It’s really fun to see someone take a silly experiment and launch it to the next level, a silly experiment with wide recognition. Of course, with Stephen Colbert’s huge popularity [...]
