Personal News
It's been a while since I have sat down to add an entry. Hopefully things will get rolling again here soon.
I recently had a run in with the pesky little fairies that make my computer turn on and talk to the web. Apparently they weren't very happy with the Bloglines subscriptions I have maintained for the past 6 months or so, and they decided to get rid of them. I emailed the nymphs in CA that maintain the Bloglines servers, but I think it may have been too little too late. We'll see.
My old band, Edward the Bear, will be getting back together for another famous reunion show Saturday, Feb. 17, around 10 or 1030pm. Any and all are welcome. I believe the cover will be a 5 spot. Hope to see you there.
I am in the process of changing jobs. I fell in to a bit of a financial hole last semester and decided I was better off working full-time, and going to school part-time. I can't really see any problem with slowing down the progression of school if I can get hands-on experience in the mean time. All of that should be straightened out in the next couple of weeks.
In other news
I was pretty excited to see Barack Obama declare his presidential candidacy via a live web cast this past Saturday morning. He is quickly mounting a strong campaign presence on the web. The site devoted to his campaign, BarackObama.com, actually provides a portal to a social networking community developed specifically for interested voters. One can develop a personal profile, network with like-minded individuals, and create a political blog.
I think this is pretty ingenious and it shows quite a bit of connection with contemporary trends. And probably a well-recruited group of advisers.

Ben - You might want to check google reader--google service for rss. My blogline crashed a few months after the begining of fall semester. I tried google reader, been using it since then.
Yes, I'm totally agree with your full-time-work-and-part-time-study decision. I did that for my master.
I got in touch with tech supprt at blogger and they suggested I clear my cache. That did the trick. It's always pleasant when tech support lives up to its name.
