Three factors that make up the current state of computing.

Journal Journal: Firefox Plugins - NPAPI

Here is a letter I just sent to Mozilla regarding their plugin API:

Hello,

I was just at the Mozilla plugins page and when I clicked on links to the NPAPI documentation I got a message that my connection to:

Journal Journal: Unmanned War

A while back I engaged in a thread about unmanned combat. I asserted an argument by way of a flippant comment, as can be easy to do on Slashdot, and inevitably, I drew a sharp, but deserved response. Even in my reply-to-the-reply I tried to be more thoughtful of my remarks, but I was

Journal Journal: To Honor MLK...

...I must answer the question, "What will I do?"

How can I help to promote dignity, respect, freedom, and opportunity for all, and especially for those who struggle to realize these values? What can I do to help eliminate violence as a means for overcoming struggle and conflict?

Journal Journal: Moderation

My one motto in life is "all things in moderation." I'm not sure, but I think that's an oxymoron. "All" is an extreme, just as "none" is an extreme. I guess that's about right though - I believe in the philosophy of all things in moderation, and I believe in this extremely so.

Journal Journal: No, We Are Not Doomed Yet (I Think)

I've been thinking a lot about Sheldon Pacotti's recent article on Salon. When I first read it I was compelled into a lengthy feedback that never really got out the door (i.e., it's still my "Drafts" folder waiting to be finished and sent). But then I thought I could sort of just work it all out here, perhaps over a couple of blogs. So, I guess that's what I'm going to try to do.

Journal Journal: To Blog or Not To Blog

This could be fun. Not sure how I feel about letting it all hang out there for anyone to see, but what the heck - let's give it a shot!
