Seriously…do I look like I want extra traffic to this site?
Or do I look stupid enough to pay for whatever link farm scam you have going?
Get lost f##kbag.
Go find a Rapidweaver user to rip off. They’ll be dumb enough to believe your bull.

(of course, I didn’t actually send the mail….that would be offensive – I just gave a link to this post instead)

An unfailingly polite lady called to ask for help with a Windows installation that had gone terribly wrong.
Customer: “I brought my Windows disks from work to install them on my home computer.”
Training stresses that we are “not the Software Police,” so I let the little act of piracy slide.
Tech Support: “Umm-hmm. What happened?”
Customer: “As I put each disk in it turns out they weren’t initialized.”
Tech Support: “Do you remember the message exactly, ma’am?”
Customer: (proudly) “I wrote it down. ‘This is not a Macintosh disk. Would you like to initialize it?’”
Tech Support: “Er, what happened next?”
Customer: “After they were initialized, all the disks appeared to be blank. And now I brought them back to work, and I can’t read them in the A: drive; the PC wants to format them. And this is our only set of Windows disks for the whole office. Did I do something wrong?”

Not something I’m good at. I generally move on to making the next toy before I think about telling anyone about the ones I’ve just done.
Still, as it looks like I’m facing redundancy – yeah, less than a year into the job, don’t ask – I figure I need to get some kinda proof of the stuff I can do. Wish I could break into the banks systems (again) so I can link to stuff I’ve done there, but no. It means it’s a bit sparse so far – but I’ll put more stuff on here when I can steal (I mean rework) the code.
Check my showcase page out if you’re at all interested in my geekiness. Just don’t expect any of my toys to be in use.

This really clever person (who happens to have only just finished school) made a web-based SL client.
As I have a lotta respect for anyone who has the patience to wade through the mess that is libSL (read OOP heavy c# and no docs/time to help strangers), I attempted to congratulate her. Unfortunately the system itself was down, and I chose my words badly. I think I got flamed.
Read the comments and decide for yourself
Don’t hold it against Katharine though, she seems a decent enough sort. Go visit her blog if you’re curious. It’s at: http://blog.katharineberry.co.uk
Please don’t just visit idly though – I don’t want folks to think she’s desperate for the traffic – she’s obviously not.
“Careful” wording really isn’t my thing, is it?
