Odds and Ends

** The most popular entry in my blog is INFP = ADD = Depression? and INFPs around the world seem to find their way here. Welcome, I say. And thanks to Eli we now have our very own Yahoo group which has a chat feature so we can set up chat sessions. Please join if you're interested. So much for my plan of setting up a PHP based chat on my site (oh well, goodness knows when I'll get around to doing that anyway!).

** This is more for my own benefit than anyone else's... thanks to a great template from Tweezerman, I now have an RSS Feed for Comments. You're welcome to subscribe to it as well.

** On the subject of RSS Feeds, I was (ok, still am) using Newsgator online reader for my subscriptions. Thought it was pretty cool... until I tried the Google Reader. It has all the features I need, looks great (read: clean and simple) and loads fast. Plus you can star entries (just as you would in Gmail) and have those in a special Feed for Starred items too!

** Uploaded some photos from Puerto Vallarta trip to my msn space

** Spring forward. As I went around the house on Sunday setting the clocks for Daylight saving time, I mentally made a mini-resolution to start going to bed earlier and get up earlier. Haha, right, like that'll happen. Tried countless times before, never succeeded (past a few days). I'm a night owl through and through. Just look at the time most of my entries are written. And according to a Monster article, this characteristic is genetically predetermined, and they offer some work strategies for us night owls (ok, also for those of you who are early birds).

** Still on the topic of daylight savings, did you know that we'll have an extra month of DST starting next year? The Energy Policy Act of 2005 will change the start and end dates of DST from 2007 onwards. Mar-Nov instead of Apr-Oct. The dept of energy will study if this is really gonna save significant amounts of energy before deciding whether to make the change permanent.

** I thought this was going to be a quick and short entry. I thought wrong. Why can't I be this "eloquent" in real life? Oh well, I'm starting to learn a new language that I can be ineloquent in: Quenya (high-elven). Hmm, that'll be interesting.... but no, it's Finnish. Some relation, but not quite Elven. Maybe I can start writing my blog in Finnish! Heh.... then I'll lose the few readers that I have (if I have?). No matter, I'm used to talking to myself anyways...

i should try google reader too, newsgator is acting really weird lately...a lot of my subscriptions are gone (well, from my site but not from my online newsgator...but i only read through my site).

I joined your group, but from looking at recent messages it appears to be highly spammed. If that's the case, I probably won't stay for long, although it was a good idea (two years ago).

FWIW I found your INFP = ADD = Depression? post by searching on "infp my boss thinks i'm stupid", a search that someone had used to get to my blog. Google Analytics is so much fun! Anyway, that's how I got here. And that was a really great post.
