Well the first thing is: i’m done with high school foreva!

It still doesn’t feel like I’ve spent four years of my life at that place. It’s really crazy. But now it’s over, and I’ll probably never see most of the people there again. For some, that’s a hallelujah moment, for others it’s not-so-much.

     So Now I’m moving on to the big crazy get-away-from-home type schooling: the college lifestyle. Yes, where everyone’s a starving college student. By the way, notice the Make a donation button underneath the Feed a Starving Student in the sidebar? Yeah, so there’s that.

     Pretty soon I think I’m going to do that whole divide Frayedwires to have tech/geek/etc things on the homepage. I’m going to have the still separate blog, and some new additions. There will be a whole blog for my college stuff. And it will be updated more frequently, so hopefully more traffic, more ads, leading to a bit of moola.

     I’ve got more to say, but I’ll save it for another day….
 
 
 

      just found this cool app via the TUAW Flickr photo pool. Nocture is a schweet little app (from the makers of one of my other favorite apps, Quicksilver) that can change your monitor settings so it looks like the classic green screen CRTs or, how I’m using it now, to make it more night vision friendly. Shades of red and orange don’t mess with your night vision as much as most colors. So, I told Nocturne to use a shade of red. It also inverts the images (black->white white->black) so it gets even darker.
     I’m using it as I type. So far I really like it. Check it out, and download Quicksilver too, it’s sooo useful.

     Now for the less geeky bit. Dad got tickets for my trip up to Solarfest. I leave on the Monday before (the 9th), and fly back down here the 18th (wednesday after SF). So come find me, I’ll be in the rush of crowds, most likely taking pictures or something for Haley’s mom

I’m gonna clean up my server a little bit. Hopefully I don’t delete anything that’s required for the site to function properly.

I think most divisions of the site are either going to be run off wordpress or some sort of wiki depending on the needs of the pages. I’ll link to them on the sidebar when their ready.

All of that whilst I’m watching Battlestar Galactica. All the geeks watch it, so I figure I better get in the game. It’s pretty cool, CGI effects like Firefly(only the best Sci-Fi ever) and huge references to greek mythology.

Oh, and my plan for when I’m in college is for posts pertaining to it to have it’s own blog. And I’m still considering the whole front page is techie rest is personal bit.
