As follow-up to my earlier thoughts about where and how I should be blogging, I have decided to separate my blogging efforts going forward. That should also make me more “prone” to blogging, in the grander scheme of things…
For instance,I’ve been wanting to continue posting pics from the Lake Worth Street Painting Festival, but I also felt like I had some serious stuff to say about the…

“General blogging” vs “Niche Blogging”, I’d prefer a few niches myself…
I feel like this blog is waaaay too scattershot, encompassing anything that captures my interest, when instead, I should be a lot more focused.
I am working on a new site specific to Lake Worth, Florida, so that’s one new venue for content.
I feel like I should have a Bitcoin-specific blog.
Current events (world-wide) is another topic that fascinates me…
After reading around a little bit, it’s…

Pictures from the Lake Worth Street Painting Festival (2nd set)
Pictures from the Lake Worth Street Painting Festival (2nd set)
This is far from the definitive collection of pictures from the Street Painting Festival, but I just wanted to post a few more pics here while I sort through, adjust, crop, edit and then post the best out of the hundreds of other pics I took, yesterday…
Enjoy!

Lake Worth Street Painting Festival
Lake Worth Street Painting Festival
Coolest thing to happen in Lake Worth (Florida) every year… This year is like a bonus – I missed last years festival because I went on a cruise instead, and this year, while I had hopes of coming back for weeks to a month, I truly didn’t think I’d make it back in time to catch it in action…
The downtown Lake Worth scene, prior to the true mobs hitting town.
Downtown Lake Worth, continued.

Bitcoin - concerns from a business or audit standpoint
Bitcoin – concerns from a business or audit standpoint
I am not an auditor. Let me just preface with that. And this blog post isn’t too thought out, it’s a stream of thoughts that just hit me at 1 in the morning.
But regardless… Bitcoin and audits. Bitcoin sucks from that standpoint. A company holding bitcoin on their balance sheet has no way to demonstrate that they alone are in control of their private keys. Or rather, they can demonstrate that…

WINE on Mac OS X. A Godsend. And I'm an atheist!
I was going to how awesome WINE on Mac OS X is, but instead, I wrote about my history in computing.
My love of the Mac has just increased a few more fold.
Let me rewind through my computing career.
I started out my professional life on Mac’s… Worked at a small ad agency, waaaay back when. I won’t date myself too severely, but when I saw what Photoshop was capable of, my jaw just dropped. This was before the PowerPC chip had been developed…. Most the Macs there ran on Motorola 68030 CPU’s, with…

Local eats in Western Massachusetts!
Local eats in Western Massachusetts!
As I mentioned previously, I moved to Massachusetts a month or two ago… Still settling in here, but one thing that is definitely different and exciting in cool way is the the range of local businesses… By that, I mean, sole proprietors and other small ventures. Amherst and Northampton have each done a marvelous job at keeping the corporate chains out of their downtown areas, with the…

EXTRA! EXTRA! Silk Road was operated by Mark Karpeles!
EXTRA! EXTRA! Silk Road was operated by Mark Karpeles!
No, the headline is not true.
Mark Karpeles is not Dread Pirate Roberts, nor is he accused of being Dread Pirate Roberts, nor (to my knowledge) has Ross Ulbricht actually said that Karpeles (by name) is the person that he supposedly sold the Silkroad hidden service to.
This is all information that the reddit echo chamber is creating all by itself.
An aside: I remember how we were once told that…

Futility in action: The search for intelligent life
Futility in action: The search for intelligent life
Don’t get me wrong. I love science fiction. Give me spaceships, planets, alien civilizations, and I’m a happy camper. Tonight, though, I’m watching a documentary about the search for life in the universe, and, well, I don’t see the point. Well, no, I get the point, science for sciences sake. But what I don’t understand is why so many intelligent people would devote their time and resources into…

New site coming up... Say hello to ntonweb.com
New site coming up… Say hello to ntonweb.com
I discovered I actually had a small fraction o f a bitcoin that I’d been unaware of… After 2 minutes of looking, I found that Name Cheap accepts Bitcoin, so I created an account with them, funded it with $13 and registered ntonweb.com. I was pleased to learn that NameCheap provides 1 year of PrivacyGuardservice with all domain registration, and even more pleased and surprised to learn that they…

Starting out 2015, the George Zimmerman way.
Yes, apparently George Zimmerman went and got himself a new mugshot last night, this time for aggravated assault. Details beyond the charge aren’t available, so all we can do is look at the poor guys mugshot, along with all of his previous ones, and speculate.
Ladies and gentleman, I present the George Zimmerman mugshot collection… Collect them all!

Search Engine Optimization 101
Search Engine Optimization 101
Search Engine Optimization, SEO for short, is a hot topic, and a lot of money is spent in an endless cycle of one site trying to one-up the next site, and so forth and so on. It’s also highly in demand, and because of the nature of the beast, it will likely be a service for which demand is always there. Or at least that’s my perspective currently.

Back from hiatus....
Back from hiatus….
It’s been a bit since I’ve written. Lots has gone one. Most significantly, I’ve moved 1,400 miles and am just starting to feel settled in… So, now that I am, I’ll hopefully get back into writing here. It’s a shame, though. Quite a bit has gone on since I last wrote, many things that I’d have loved to have weighed in on, and maybe I still will, but it won’t be nearly as relevant to do so now as…

Playing whack-a-mole with The Pirate Bay
Playing whack-a-mole with The Pirate Bay
For much of the Pirate Bay’s history, the site has bounced from domain to domain, as authorities would continuously snap up the domains that the site was hosted at, generally in conjunction with raiding the datacenter that the sites servers were hosted at.
So, to people paying attention, it seemed a little strange that the Pirate Bay had been up and accessible through the same domain (www.thepira…

The Tor Projectcame to life with a mission to provide residents in countries with strict internet controls with the means of browsing and communicating online without fear that their activities could be monitored. Sometime after its founding, the developers increased the projects scope, enabling Tor users not only to seek out information via the Tor network, but to publish information as well.…

Wiki’s Wiki’s, all I see are Wiki’s
I’ve embarked on a new endeavor; to learn MediaWiki, aka, the engine that runs Wikipedia. To that end, I’m creating a pair of my own Wiki’s; one that is devoted to technology, be it old software (abandonware), current technologies (source code, How-to’s), interesting news and analysis pieces, this will be my “professional” wiki.
And then there’ the second one. This one is a whole lot more fun,…
