I just blogged to say I blog you, and I blog it from the bottom of my blog
(THIS USED TO BE A FEW DIFFERENT POSTS)
Since I couldn’t figure out a free/painless way to edit a million photos’ EXIF data, I made a shortcode instead, and will just enter locations by hand in the post.
More of the same, but with actual correctness now »
Tagging is:
I’m working on it. Not really, but kind of.
In case anyone has forgotten about that other site I have, I have news pertaining to it. Thanks to the magic of inter-net, I was finally able to get screen captures from the 90210 episode from 1999—formerly the only sighting I had no evidence of.
Remember how excited I was to add geotagging? Hella short-lived, yo!

NOTE, FROM THE FUTURE: I completely rewrote this, to account for new developments in the realm of me-being-less-stupid.
Go here for that stuff, now and forever: Geotagging, for real this time
My permalinks are all effed up, especially the attachment ones. I think it has to do with when I got all fancy with my directories and then everything got confused. Long story short, I had to re-enter a bunch of posts to get attachments to work right on them. Zuh?
I’m also seeing weird shutter-speed displays sometimes, but I don’t care enough about that right now.
THIS WAS SUPPOSED TO BE EASY, PEOPLE#$P&!@#^
I just realized this pics I’m uploading are kind of huge in the file-size dept. I’ll try to keep the full-size ones under 200K. I am also constantly having problems with Wordpress’s flash uploader, all with the firefox crashing and the rage and such.
In good news, I can (sort of) geotag now. It only took about six hours of bashing my head on the keyboard.

So my awesome domain name (this one) disappeared for a little bit. It expired and I had no idea, until an alert reader (aka my “special lady”) pointed it out to me. I had a squat page that had the wonderful title of “the dotcom yahoo domain name at theworldwidewebdotcom.net” and a clipart of internets and a bunch of search terms.
“But I was not notified!” I said to myself. Then I remembered that when I registered it I gave them my old gmail address, the one I quit using when I got gmail styles on my inter-Smeat. I checked, and lo and behold there were lots of mails, starting with “domain expiring in two months” to “domain expiring in five minutes” to “we’re not going to hold on to this forever, you know” to “PAY UP, DIPSHIT!”
So anyway, what’d I miss while I was gone?
Remember Harris’s Lament, from TV? On one particular episode of the Barney Miller show of yore, Det. Shepherd Harris was trying to register a domain name for his website (it was to be a website about websites). After much searching, he cries out, “all the good ones are taken!”
Well, this one can be taken, by YOU! Seriously, have you seen the garglemesh that passes for domain names on these web 2.0 sites? Most of them sound like something my stomach does after too spicy of food. And it’s only going to get worse. I predict in a few years even this one (theworldwideweb, dot com… dot net) will be desirable. Ten thousand dollars desirable? Only if you act now!
Let me be the first to say that there is nothing new under the sun. Thus, a blog!
