MIA?

I know what you’re asking yourself: you’re sitting there (or standing, or lying, prone or supine as the case may be although it’s not easy to read a computer screen that way but whatever) wondering where I’ve been for the past day or so.
Here.
And what have I been doing? Over the past four days, 1000 [...]

Phones for Fearless!

Originally posted by UncleWeed over at the Fearless City site. The image was done by Kris Krug and posted on Flickr. This is our campaign announcement for the Phones for Fearless drive. And don’t forget about us after Christmas, while you’re all bonding with your shiny new iPhones! The campaign continues into early January.
And lookie! [...]

Eavesdropping at the Ovaltine

See, this is why I need a laptop. So I don’t have to snarf the last half of my meal and RUN home, desperately trying not to jostle my brain and let all the golden eavesdrops fall out.
More or less verbatim, heard from my perch on the highly prestigious “booth side” of the Ovaltine, coming [...]

Fearless City Mobile at the Heart of the City and mobile online!

cross-posted from FearlessCity, just so you know what I’ve been doing with all my copious spare time recently. And a damn good thing, too, because with all the extra exposure that site is up and down like a toilet seat.

As most of our readers know, Fearless City Mobile was all over the Heart of [...]

The Fallen

No post today, just this link to those who’ve given their lives in the Canadian mission in Afghanistan so far. And here are a couple of different links to one who didn’t.
And a re-post from July 2nd of last year:

Instead of racking my brains to come up with a (likely inferior) way of expressing my [...]

Hacked? Back!

Not exactly sure what’s been going on, but all of a sudden WordPress didn’t like my password. In fact, they refused to accept it and let me into my own blog, no matter how many times I batted the monitor and screamed.
Imagine!
In any case, whether it was a password hack or technical difficulty, either on [...]

Octopus Studios in the hood

Octopus Studios: I’m not exactly sure who they are. I’m not exactly sure what they do. I am, however, 100% certain that they have the coolest logo on the Downtown EastSide, and thoughtful of them it was to put it only a couple of blocks from my house. They must know I’ve been busy lately.

Whoa! [...]

Souls Mobile - Live | Fearless City

Here is the live streaming video from Mobile Souls at the Parade of Lost Souls. No idea if this UStream video will work, but what the hell, I’ll give it a shot.

UPDATE: okay, screw that. Go here on Fearless for the actual streaming [...]

Parade of Lost souls and Digital Shrine liveblog

Cross-posted from FearlessCity. I was liveblogging Mobile Souls and the Digital Shrine for Fearless at the Parade of Lost Souls, in cooperation with the Public Dreams Society.
Well, this IS challenging. Thank GOD it’s on the Drive and there is never a moment when a drum circle, official or unofficial, is not playing. I can leech [...]
