But guess what... it's not just a show. He's got smart people supporting him and he's great on the issues, too. I for one am getting a little tired of all the ... http://remtheory.com/?p=128 2004 was, I felt, a watershed moment for the American people... in a bad way. I somehow have managed to find some hope after the Iowa caucus. Elections really aren't inevitable. Every vote really does matter. And given all the crap that's going on today, some of us can even ... http://remtheory.com/?p=127 This is so exciting! I use Flickr to house my own photos and I'm thrilled to say we use Flickr at work, too, but what the Library of Congress is proposing is really revolutionary in that a very large, extremely credible and federal (!!) institution is venturing into ... http://remtheory.com/?p=125 I just launched a website for the yoga teacher that had a real part in making me a mentally and physically stronger person.

But I have to say, I was really on the fence about bothering with this one. After 2004, I was crushed, like so many others, at Bush's second (first?) victory. Edwards excited me, though. But his poll numbers were low and the media ... http://remtheory.com/?p=119 I'm so happy that I'm seeing this on not just my nonprofit blog feeds, but also on my general web feeds. The word is spreading, hooray! So, I'll help too: See Free Rice tests your vocabulary, feeds others at one of my newest favorite blogs. http://remtheory.com/?p=117 My head has been spinning this past week. I've been on a mission to help my org sort out a technology problem. Can we get a one-stop-shop hosted, yet fully customizable (i.e. template mods and form field additions) transaction platform that includes event registration, donations (one-time and recurring, preferably) and ... http://remtheory.com/?p=116 A List Apart conducted an extensive survey of web professionals.  I was disappointed to see the gender disparities, let alone the ethnic ones, but I guess it's not too much of a surprise.
