Update: URLTea NOT Dead??

Well, just as its downtime was unannounced, so too is its resurrection. Out of habit I went to shrink down a url using my URLTea bookmarklet (which I refused to dispose of until I knew for sure), lo and behold it worked! Not only did it work, it worked super fast.
What is going on in [...]

Front Page Overhaul!

The front page of the site finally got an overhaul! As you can see, it is much less of a CSS nightmare than what the Wayback Machine will prove the previous incarnations were.

Think For Myself? Don’t Mind if I Do!

Hey MOFOS! Time to De-lurk Already!

Hey kids! In conjunction with my desire to generate more user feedback here at the RKNet, I wish to take a moment to voice my support for The Great Mofo Delurk 2007.
Don’t get me wrong, I love me some RSS. It allows me to read far more interesting articles per day than visiting individual blogs [...]

The Mo-Bettah Blog Blues or Wherefore Art Thou Comments?

Dear Diary,
Today I was all excited because I thought I had a bunch of comments. “12 comments in moderation”, I saw on my dashboard! My goodness! It was like a dream come true. A chance to find out who - if anyone - is reading, and find out their thoughts on any one of the [...]
