Two interesting tidbits of geek stuff crossed my desk this morning; first, there’s finally a really nice, configurable, Matrix code screensaver for Mac OS X<\/a>. Too bad all my machines migrated to SETI@home some time ago. Second, it looks like the new AIM for Windows beta<\/a> has early video chat support, and may soon be compatible with Apple’s iChat AV<\/a>. That would be wonderful news, seeing as the video chat support in Yahoo! Messenger for OS X<\/a> is… weak.<\/p>\n

I’m now the navigator for kittykatya<\/a>‘s pirate crew, yarrgh! I wonder if Tom Monaghan still has the letters of marque issued to the SS MacKeigh<\/i> by the court of Riversmeet (I think)?<\/p>\n

Christmas was very good, and in my case, spread over all of December. I got to see a lot of people who are important to me, and yes, I got a lot of neat stuff – to deny that I enjoy people giving me gifts would be hypocrisy of a high order. I know some people who feel that it’s better to spend the whole year being good to their fellow humans, rather than to concentrate it on a single season; I can’t argue with the sentiment, but I feel that we always need times of special celebration.<\/p>\n

Still don’t know for sure what I’m doing New Year’s – we have several plans, but they all depend on things out of our control. I had hoped to finally meet subbes<\/a> face-to-face this week, but I just don’t know right now.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
