Monkinetic Weblog

I was asking on[#wordpress](http://monkinetic.blog/tag/wordpress)](irc://irc.freenode.net/wordpress) the other day about URL auto-linking for WordPress. MooKitty came to my aid with a nifty plugin, Kitten's Link Clicker. This post is a test.

Whoa! Apple announces AirPort Express, a power-supply-shaped AirPort base station with a new technology called AirTunes - it will wirelessly stream your itunes to your stereo by way of a 1/8" stereo output jack. Drool factor 5, Mr. Sulu!!

Update: MacWorld has a bit on how AirTunes works.

...Gopher refuses to go away. :-) See the internet as it used to be -- point your Mozilla-flavored web browser to gopher.quux.org. Wow, it's been a while since I've gopher'd. A blast from the past.

Jodi and I are watching Calendar Girls, a cute and touching movie about a group of older women in England who decide to pose "semi-clothed" for a charity calendar. It's cute, but it's also deeper than I expected. Unlike The Full Monty, which ended on the triumphant note, Calendar Girls follows the women as they deal with the ramifications of their success. Rent it sometime, it's pretty good!

Blogging With AquaMinds NoteTaker. I'm thinking about how to write an OPML renderer for Wordpress (in PHP). Then I could upload outlines from Omni Outliner as blog posts... hm.

Jodi and I are back home from San Diego, where we spent a fabulous Memorial Day Weekend. Details to follow.

Well, the experiment continues. Now that I'm back at redmonk.net, I've put the Google ads back on the blog. I get almost no hits on them, but with the new design and more frequent posts, we'll see what happens!

The nuclear moose: Wiggle your big toe... >"Wiggle your big toe." It just popped into my head. "Wiggle your big toe." I began to focus on that phrase, and I recalled the scene from the movie. The Bride was going to get out of that situation, and only calm reflection and concentration was going to work for her.

As some of you may have figured, I've basically finished switching this site over to WordPress, and it's back at the root of redmonk.net. LIkely you've been redirected to redmonk.net from http://www.redmonk.net/monkinetic.

Every couple of weeks, Content Connections has a "learning lunch" where one of the employees will volunteer to do a presentation on... something. ;)

I'm looking for (researching, really) a 600cc motorcycle in the Phoenix area. I really like the Honda Shadow VLX, but they seem hard to come by. I'd rather not spend much - part of my motivation is the high cost of gasoline in the valley right now, and if I can get the bike without getting rid of my truck that would be best.
