I’m up to my ears in actual, paying work, and since we’re quite near the end of the month, work actually pays off faster than procrastination does.
Two new things of interest – a service that’s still in beta testing but working great so far – PostTask.com. A rather fancy, ajaxified task list. One interesting thing about it is that it provides (based on your estimate of the length of each task) your finish time. If I don’t fool around, I can be done by 11:23pm.
The Next Right website has launched – go check it out! I haven’t had time to give it a thorough going-over but it looks very well done. Here’s hoping it’s going to be a conservative site, as opposed to a Republican echo chamber. Sadly, there’s a widening gap between those two groups. One nifty feature is that your profile has a list of posts you’ve commented on. I commented here about Jindal. Yes, I’m harping on him a bit – I’m sick to death of people saying how he’s a new conservative; the future of the Republican party, blah blah blah. While I thought all of that about him and more when he was in the House, as Governor he is letting us down. I keep hoping if enough negative buzz is generated on the specific things he’s doing wrong, he might smarten up. I’m certainly keeping up my end of our long correspondence – any time now I’m going to be getting a “rest assured” letter, I’m sure. As in “Please rest assured that I understand your concerns…” I used to only get those letters from Mary Landrieu’s office. Jindal’s office always sent the “Thanks so much for your enthusiastic support” letters. Another sign of the times…
Well, I had to add another task, plus PostTask tracks and updates the cumulative completion time for all tasks so I’m now up to 5:34am. In the immortal words of Mrs. Cosby, I’ve “fooled around long enough.”
