If you like having the bejesus scared out of you, go watch The Descent. I went with greynolds last night, and it was hard getting to sleep… I’m never going caving again.

I’m thinking that it would be cool, what with iTunes 4.9 supporting podcasts now, to start a short-story podcast. If you’re a writer, and you’ve got a short story you’d like promoted, I think it could be fun to record it to MP3 and send it out into the inkernet.
So, who’s interested? Wanna get heard? It’s a way to get published right now, and possibly heard by thousands of listeners. If we can get an iTunes slot (which shouldn’t be hard at all) you’ll probably get a hell of a lot of listeners for story.
I’m thinking the show would work like this;
* Intro jingle
* Introduction to the podcast
* Short Author’s Bio,
* website address and or email of the author
* The story itself
* reprise; how to contact the author
* outro jingleNow, I’ve never podcasted before, but I’ve got the skillz to record it and publish it, if I can get the material. Who wants to be part of “Mindfire Storytime — stories with a spark of genius” 😉

- Grab the nearest book.
- Open the book to page 123.
- Find the fifth sentence.
- Post the text of the sentence in your own bulletin…along with these instructions.
- Don’t search around and look for the “coolest” book you can find. Do what’s actually next to you.

“The Gauss Rifle: A Magnetic Linear Accelerator
“This very simple toy uses a magnetic chain reaction to launch a steel marble at a target at high speed. The toy is very simple to build, going together in minutes, and is very simple to understand and explain, and yet fascinating to watch and to use.”

I have voted. I won’t tell you who. Suffice to say I went home and celebrated with a banana french fancy.
Anyhoo. Almost everywhere has stupid capital cities. Capetown isn’t the capital of South Africa. Neither Zurich nor Geneva are the capital of Switzerland. Istanbul isn’t the capital of Turkey. Brazil’s not Rio, neither Syndney or Melbourne are the capital of Australia. And Holland has two capitals.
That is all.

Can I ask again that people interested in Ariadne befriend st3v3s_blog? It’s my actual blog from now on… I’ll be using the st3v3 account for more friend-based stuff, and st3v3s_blog for details of the arduous quest to start my business.
Cheers, all.

So, I’m thinking a bit more about web sites – about ways to put together a site that just does everything that an organisation wants to deal with. I’m using ‘organisation’ as a general term because it applies generally to gaming groups, businesses, and really any community you can think of.
