by patndoris on Dec.16, 2008, under Websites, Musings
If you're like me, you think of the internet as more or less immortal. It's this great invisible being (like the supercomputer Deep Thought in Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy that churns on thinking for 7-1/2 million years) that exist forever, and it's… more »
Amazingly Addictive Auditorium Game
by patndoris on Dec.08, 2008, under Websites, Science?
There's that initial repetition of a vowel sound again. But that's definitely not the introduction to a new word game. Quite the contrary! I?m sleepily struggling to accurately describe Auditorium. It's a game of skill (I do believe I should have paid mo… more »

Resistance is Futile - A FB Oddesy

Quite some time ago, a friend in Canada sent me one of those automated emails to join Facebook "FB" - I ignored it. I ignored the next couple from him too. We're rarely in contact, it's one of those work/friends things where you talk a couple times a yea… more »

by patndoris on Aug.25, 2007, under Websites
On Friday, I received an invitation to be a staff memeber at BigBlueBall ( BBB ). For those of you who use IM programs, this is THE resource for everything IM related. I've been a member since 2006, but had become far more active lately in the forums. It… more »
