Hail in San Diego

Usually, San Diego has lovely weather. It’s one of the first things you notice when you step off the plane. Winter is two weeks of rain in February or March.
When it has bad weather, it usually goes from “perfect” to “weird” in short order. As in this case:
Yes, that is hail in my back yard. It came down hard for about 15 minutes, then stopped. Kristen tells me we had a small recurrence today.
Temperature? 50-60 degrees Fahrenheit. Go figure.

Horrors! Another month has gone by, and that means that to my eternal dismay (well, actually, to my monthly dismay), it’s time for another stats-laden, quip-heavy, self-important report on how the site is doing!
Read on for a glimpse into the depravity of Internet searchers! Marvel at the increasing traffic and bandwidth bill! Be shocked by what posts people cared about! Visit our new exhibit on feed readers, and discover how feeds bite the hands that feed them, but feed on other things! All this and more, for the low, low price of a single clickthrough!
Fixed the feed…

For those of you who emailed me or posted about this: there was a bad character in one of the posts. It should be fixed now.

Identity Production in a Networked Culture: Why Youth Heart MySpace is Danah Boyd’s recent presentation.
However, what I really want to ponder is “why can/can’t we replace MySpace in this paper with the word MMORPGs?”
Factoid: MMORPGs are not, demographically speaking, youth spaces as described (yes, I know you will have anecdotes to the contrary about the obnoxious 14 year old, and so on). Why or why not?
