Ok Fine
Ok. My previous post was too extreme. It’s okay to have a Xanga or other blog. Not everyone knows how to make websites or things like that. My main point is that people go crazy trying to mod these things that are very limited in what you can do. But of course, i’s better than having nothing. So whatever.
Kids and their Xangas These Days
Kids and their Xangas make me laugh… They spend time finding all these hacks and mods to make fancy layouts and such. You all don’t realize that you can NOT use Xanga to have a professional looking blog. It’s so funny. It’s like trying to put some clothes on an apple to enhance the apple’s appearance. Instead of having any control of the layout whatsoever, people resort to these dumb little snippets of poorly written html or javascript to “trick out” their Xangas. You know what? You’re all special. I wrote this site in notepad to get a layout. You use the lazy ass blogger thingy. Of course, I don’t use notepad every time, I added a nice little blogging tool so I post things and it just updates. And it embeds itself into the layout I made in notepad. My main point: You lazy people, grab some free hosting and learn html.
It is much more efficient and professional to get a blog using PHP. You have full control over the layout and who can comment on posts. There are no html restrictions and no Ads.

Portfolioso
Everyone needs to download Skype. It is a voice over IP internet phone that acts like a real phone. The quality is amazing, too. I tried it out with Dan and it worked well, even on his crappy connection. It’s much better than AIM’s chat (which is muffled and isn’t even like a phone). Best of all – Skype is FREE. So you have nothing to lose. Get it now!
Basically all you do is sign up with a username and then you can call different people’s usernames. It will ring when you receive a call and act just like a real phone. Skype has a contact list and an online list. You can change your status from online, away, offline, unavaiable and a few others.
IM me if you need help setting it up or whatever. This is definitely worth it…
