Analog blogging
I'm not sure why
VBS titled their report this way. Maybe they didn't realize 'blog' is short for 'web log' and that the web is not analog. Never the less, this is a good little piece and speaks to the importance of information. If you didn't already know,
VBS is
Vice magazine's online video service and has some really great content such as a crazy report on North Korea, buying bootleg guns in Pakistan, buying a warhead on the black market and interviews with people like
Kanye West and
Sasha Grey.

Now people that use tools have a blog too

For years the internet has forgotten a small group of people. This small demographic is those among us that use tools to fix and build stuff. Well, now these freaks got their own blog. I checked it out and even found out that there are stores with nothing but tools (and now bottled water). Who'd a thunk of such a brilliant idea!? amazing!

News: blogger.com breaks, I waste a lot of time
Since yesterday, Blogger.com has been royally screwed up. Everybody using FTP with their service has been experiencing issues ranging from very long loading times to not being able to publish anything at all. Most people wouldn't expect this too happen. So, like I'm sure most of us did, I tried everything I could possibly do to fix the situation on my end including having a programming master take a look at it. About an hour later I found out that the problem WAS on blogger's end. Of course this is after I wasted roughly 5 hours trying to fix the situation and repeatedly attempting to republish.
I LOOOOOVE wasting time too. Thank you Blogger and Google! I guess you get what you pay for though.
