Recently I’ve fallen in love with node.js a web server written in JavaScript.

I didn’t have the new story up over the weekend because my MacBook isn’t working. So I spent the weekend reformatting hopping it isn’t a hardware problem, it is.
I’ll have the new story posted up sometime this week.

Like many people I’ve been considering whether or not to buy an Amazon Kindle. It’s a very promising device with a large library available. But it seems Amazon has made my mind for me. They deleted copies of paid books off peoples Kindles. That is simply unacceptable.
