February 7th, 2006

ABC News: Scientists Find ‘Lost World’ in Indonesia: “JAKARTA, Indonesia Feb 7, 2006 (AP)� Soon after scientists landed by helicopter in the mist-shrouded mountains of one of Indonesia’s most remote provinces, they stumbled on a primitive egg-laying mammal that simply allowed itself to be picked up and brought to their field camp.

Describing a ‘Lost World’ apparently never visited by humans members of the team said Tuesday they also saw large mammals that have been hunted to near-extinction elsewhere and discovered dozens of exotic new species of frogs, butterflies and palms.”

"Lost World"? Tre Cool.

Bandwidth Thieves

February 7th, 2006

So, I was looking through my web site logs to see what pages get the most hits, what search terms are being used when my site comes up, etc. To my surprise, a lot of traffic is being generated by blog sites like MySpace, etc.

So, what words of wisdom are they referencing and linking back to? None - they’re using some movie poster graphics I made. Basicly they’re stealing my bandwidth.

On the other hand, my site get’s so few hits - who cares? I’ll start worrying when my provider sends me a warning. Still … what a dissappointment. Thousands of words of wit and wisdom and it’s the hack-job graphics that get’s everyone attention.
