Post of the Beast

Posted on July 28, 2004 by Randy Peterman

I just noticed that the Post ID (how WordPress identifies this post) for this blog entry is 666. I promise that I’m not selling anything with this post and you can read other entries on this site without writing said post ID on your wrist or forehead. Similarly conspiracy theorists and people with wrong theology will get worred about this. However, I think that it is key to note that scripture says that the church will be taken out of the world before 666 is implemented.

Also of note is the fact that this is actually post number 467 starting from the first post on my old site.

Throwing Tables Out the Window is a great article on the benefits of redesigning your web site with semantic, standards compliant code. Very cool, and nice of Doug to share.

Thanks to Matt for the link.

2004 U.S. Presidential Election Candidates

Posted on July 26, 2004 by Randy Peterman

OK, so I’ve said that I don’t like the two primary parties’ candidates, here is a list of all the choices (I think, this could still be an incomplete list) 2004 U.S. Presidential Election Candidates. On the surface I’m confident that I will not vote for the ‘Personal Choice Party’ since the Vice Presidential candidate is a porn star. Boy, that’s a new meaning to Vice President.

Box Zen Garden

If you’re familiar with the CSS Zen Garden project then you need to also get familiar with the box doodle project, which is completely different, but still interesting. I’m not sure if it is art or colored trash, but it is fun none the less.

Brilliant Web Design

Posted on July 16, 2004 by Randy Peterman

As a professional web designer I’m constantly on the lookout for good design, creative design and things I can learn from Silverpoint: Web Solutions for Schools is about as brilliant a design as any I have come across (and I have come across a lot). It was created by Shaun Inman, who has already proven his standings in the web development industry with such amazing designs as his Cereal Bowl design for www.csszengarden.com.

If You Hated Blogging, But Had a Blog

Posted on July 15, 2004 by Randy Peterman

If you hated blogging but had a blog you’d have this blog. Of course if you neglected your blog for more valuable pursuits you’d have this blog. And of course if you had a witty sense of humor but were extremely hooked on George Bush, you’d have this blog. And if you were an apiring jazz musician/programmer, you’d have this blog. And if you were me – you’d have this blog.

Weblog Tools Collection

Posted on July 14, 2004 by Randy Peterman

A good resource for information on blogging tools in general and WordPress things in general: Weblog Tools Collection. They don’t have StatTraq on the list yet, but I’m trying to get ahold of the author to see if he’ll add it to the list.

You Were Right – They’re Morons

Posted on July 13, 2004 by Randy Peterman

If you thought that people sending out spams and scams were short on intellect….you were right. In a BBC article Turning the tables on Nigeria’s e-mail conmen we learn of how stupid these scammers are, and how one guy got $80.00 from one of them!
