So this here blog is almost 100% functional, there's still some pages I need to upload and some plugins what need plugged in, but it's close enough to done now to be called live, and you're here reading and I'm here writing and I'm glad you'll be my neighbor.

I'm having more fun installing pointless functionality and stuff that pings other stuff than any person should reasonably be allowed. Oh, and don't get me started about the ads. I've never been so excited to sell out in my entire life. I installed the Project Wonderful ads three days ago and I've already made a shiny nickel. Back the truck directly up to the internet, I am here to collect my winnings.

One of my favorite plugins is the Meebo widget, visible on the blog's main page, in the left sidebar sort of midway down. Whenever somebody loads the page it automatically creates a temporary meebo account for you and you appear on my buddy list:

Chances are pretty good you don't even see the widget at first, because you need to scroll down a bit to get to it. But I can see you. I won't know who you are until you tell me, of course, but I can still send you unsolicited messages that will beep at you until you've been sufficiently creeped out that you don't come back.

And that's really what web 2.0 is all about for me, folks.
