Look at that wall
Mon Jan 02, 2006 21:18 EST (UTC -5)A lot of changes went into effect yesterday, namely: it's a new year, this computer is in a different corner of the room, one of the walls of the room is now red (my parents can't stop passing by and saying "Look at that wall"), TWoS has a new design, and I got WordPress 2.0 (the admin side of which looks snazzier than ever). Just a couple days ago it was 2005, and I was sitting at this computer, in this white room, facing the old wall I had been facing for eight years, and updating this old-looking but familiar site with an old-looking but familiar version of WordPress.
Ah well.
Reaction to the new TWoS 3.0 layout seems to be more toward the positive side, which is good. Bearing in mind some of the feedback I've gotten and some observations I've made, I'm going to record a general overview (for the me of the future and the you of today) on what to expect in TWoS 4.0: it'll have the fun feel of TWoS 2.0 and the navigation design of TWoS 3.0 combined with the web standards adherence and universal accessibility of TWoS 5.0. (The mobile Internet is starting to proliferate, and I don't want to get left behind.)
Today was the first day back from school after winter break. On December 23, I had gotten a $3 haircut at some cheesy Supercuts ripoff place called Great Clips. Anyway, reaction to the new haircut seems to be more toward the positive side, which is good. I got many comments on it, which must mean that everyone secretly hates my hair when it's longer. That's kind of a shame, because it means I could have been better-looking all this time if I had gotten my hair cut more often.
Some guy has set up a blog to chronicle his adventures in customizing his Squier Stagemaster, a rather cheap electric guitar. The Stagemaster Project should be worth reading over the following weeks or months as he tricks it out more and more.
Here's a really good blonde joke.

i fell for the blonde joke for a couple links, but then i realized. did you fall for it too, or are you too brunette for it?

i like the new layout but i don't think it's necessary to make twos up to the whole cell phone standards, that's a bit much, but whatever floats your boat. :]

here come all the 'try using the caps lock button' comments. but remember, at least we (kevin and i) don't type in all caps.

I'm actually pleased with the results that Great Clips gives me...For more than $3. ;)

Speaking of using proper grammar and punctuation, I loved your MySpace parody. +1 (or +F-VE) It somehow seemed familiar, not just as the format of many a deleted email, but also for some other reason...
