powerblogs, the closed-source, hosted blog application that a few well-known political blogs use (among others, presumably) introduced a feature recently called “post chaining”. it’s sort of an on-the-fly categorization, where the posts in the chain are automatically linked to by all of the other entries in the chain. so if i provided a link to this posting in the middle of a chain about jimmy swaggart’s stupid kill-gay-people remark, you can easily find what earlier and later posts on the same issue had to say.

i signed a new lease, so i guess that means i’m planning on staying in downtown los angeles through at least october 2005. (and the nice thing is that my rent did not increase.)

maybe by then i will have unpacked and/or gotten rid of the things that are still in boxes.

there’s something funny about getting a solicitation from the bbb wise giving alliance.

i’ve only given it one listen while i was working, but a night at the hip-hopera by the kleptones is great. (and i already like it a lot more than the grey album, another album in the same sort of rip-mix-burn spirit.)
