Send to a friend WordPress plugin
Send to a friend WordPress plugin allows users to send the page they’re looking at to a friend, colleague or someone special.
This is cool!
I just got the WordPress send-to-a-friend plug in working over at It's JerryTime!
When you get over there, try it out by clicking the "send-to-a-friend" link at the top of the page.
At first it didn't work because the installation instructions say:
add < ?php StaF_html(); ?> some where in your sidebar and try it
That isn't right.
The correct code to enter is:
You've got to remove the leading space.

Faster speeds in 2006
Terry Heaton has some predictions for 2006, TV News in a Postmodern World, 2006: The Unbundled Awakening:
"Another important milestone for online video will be reached in 2006 when Comcast begins offering 10 megabyte download and 1 megabyte upload speeds for their standard broadband package. At 10 megs down, home viewing of video streams will be smooth and high quality, and this will further drive the convergence of television and the web. It will also make start-up efforts by vloggers more doable, because it won't take as long to upload their products at 1 meg. Symmetrical broadband, where upload and download speeds are equal (and robust) is a sticky business issue that is unlikely to be resolved for some time, but there will be increasing pressure from consumers to move in that direction."I hadn't heard about this. Looking forward to faster speeds in 2006.

Tell the Truth About the War Video
Unembedded: Four Independent Photojournalists on the War in Iraq:
"“We crossed the lines because we believe it is more important to humanize a conflict than it is to trade in rhetorical truths, or to reinforce easy notions of enemy and friend, which are mere propaganda.”"

Clear and present danger
Bruce Feinn writes . . . unlimited?:
"President Bush presents a clear and present danger to the rule of law. He cannot be trusted to conduct the war against global terrorism with a decent respect for civil liberties and checks against executive abuses. Congress should swiftly enact a code that would require Mr. Bush to obtain legislative consent for every counterterrorism measure that would materially impair individual freedoms. "via [ boingboing ]

Niña bereber (berber girl)
Niña bereber (berber girl) by Pixel y Dixel, uploaded from flickr.
I just found this shot on the Flickr: Anti Photo Radar:
"What is an AntiPhoto? An AntiPhoto is more than a photo, is a masterpiece." The photo selections should be made by instinct. most of the times you don't need a reason to love something or someone, there are lots of things impossible to explain. this group meant to be more about feelings than techincal paranoiasShouldn't flickr disable the blog this menu option if the photos are copyrighted?
Liberty vs. Death
Daily Kos: Open Thread:
"Sen. John Cornyn: 'None of your civil liberties matter much after you're dead.'
Sen. Russ Feingold's retort: 'Give me liberty or give me death.'"
