Not that it’s news to anyone, I know. But Defensio was down this evening (because of an Amazon server failure), which meant that all of our sites have been slammed with comment spam. They all get hit constantly, but it’s…
Scattered
Anybody else using LiveMocha? Especially to learn French? I just joined (as TechnoMom, of course) and would like to have “friends” there. I started with the beginner level, lesson one, and actually learned a few new vocabulary words. (My wee…
Please Think About Sam
His father died last night. He didn’t want any kind of funeral. We’re going to see his mom.
