This one is the current industry buzz. Basically, a slam against XHTML and a suggestion to return to HTML 4.01 in lieu of using XHTML 1.0 (or 1.1).

The big networks are panicking about their content appearing on YouTube and Google Video. Lawsuits abound. But the content keeps coming.

The effect of all this content is interesting — users are actually dropping their long-loved cable and satellite connections in favour of downloading only what they want from the internet and viewing it at their leisure.

Well, I haven’t had a chance to finish with the blog entries yet (editing is such sweet fun), but I do at least have the gallery of photos from our last Hawaii trip up for viewing. The full list will appear in the various blog entries.

Enjoy!

I hurt. A lot.

Yesterday, with the exceptional help of good friends, we moved into our “new” house (see Ugh. Moving again.). This after a major screw-up with U-Haul (they neglected to tell us when the truck was actually available) and a couple of weeks where we were away (vacations are a wonderful thing).
