Best Commercial Evar [video]
I can’t recall any commercial ever giving me chills. This one did.

Blog Improvements
Nobody cares but me, I know, but I feel compelled to note that I’v added a few Wordpress plugins to my blog over the past couple days, adding some bits of functionality:

I put up my Software Wars Map way back in January, and it pretty much just sat there. In late May, for some reason, I suddenly started getting a several thousand hits per day from StumbleUpon, which is pretty amazing considering my site previously was getting only about 30-50 hits per day, mainly to my […]
