friskygeek.com v 7.0

November 24th, 2006

Whoa! Whats this then? The seventh redesign in the life of friskygeek.com! I do a redesign almost every year it seems… I have to say of all the designs, Im happiest with this one - its clean and goes well with the design of my photoblog.

So the long-awaited redesign is finally live… Er, sort of. There are loads of things that are still broken, but I decided that I’d rather just get this out there. Take a look around and please update your RSS feeds. I’ve set up a mod_rewrite from the old index.xml feed to the new one but I imagine its better if you updated it. I also need to make this site look better in IE and Safari. Not surprisingly, it looks best at the moment in Firefox.

The Random Linkage to the right is a new feature. It replaces my old “Linkage for a Tuesday…” posts that I used to post, because oftentimes I come across a link that I think is worth sharing, but it doesn’t quite deserve its own post, so those types of links will go to the right. The Now Playing on friskyRadio pulls in live data from friskyRadio and displays whats currently playing there. I still need to port over the Links section.

With friskyGeek.com v7.0, I am finally MT-free and have also jumped the fence and joined the Wordpress bandwagon! So please leave a comment so that I know comments work and oh, let me know what you think of the design!

The world’s oldest LOL Cat has been found - and its all the way from 1905!!! They even put an all-caps caption on it. If this is authentic, then its certainly awesome.

If youre like me you use Google Reader for all your RSS needs. And, like me, sorta hate the UI. Check out this minimal greasemonkey script UI for Google Reader - pretty neat.

Bombay attacks in pictures. Sad pictures. Dont read the comments where people are blatantly blaming Pakistan. This instant blame of each other when things go wrong in each others’ countries needs to stop. Ignorant fucks from each side can blame each other to hell. Lets stop the blame and start working together for a solution to death and bloodshed.

Look. There are terrorists on twitter. His website remind you of some other website? Same background and same color scheme. Not only is he a baby-killing terrorist, he’s a thief as well.

Today’s Weird News of the Day comes not from Japan as it usually does but from my friend Ingo’s country Germany. A convicted drug dealer escaped from jail this week. How did he do it? Here’s how:
Step 1. He bought a big box.
Step 2. He put himself into this box.
Step 3. He mailed the box with him inside the box to his home.
I say thats genius. Story here.

Theres a funny thing going on in India this week. Seems like the people are upset that Obama called Pakistan’s president but not India’s. And everyone is upset. Well, to the US at this moment in time, Pakistan is more important than India. Jesus fucking cry babies.

Want to work in the Obama Administration? Then you better be prepared to bare all your dark secrets. All applicants to senior cabinet-level posts are asked to fill out a 63-page questioner. Again - this is something that the Retards would never do. Link to the 63 questions [PDF]
