There are numerous things wrong with this imposter site so I will begin with the most obvious.
- Look at the address bar. It reads http://www.freewebs.com/kyleofalaska/ . First off, I have not have my personal site hosted on anything but a domain for the past few years. Second, if you go to http://www.freewebs.com/ you’ll see that it’s not a site about me, that it is a…
- Free hosting service. I don’t use free hosting services and I don’t like them. I USED to use free hosting services but I don’t anymore. They are just to ad-ridden.
- Notice the title on the page and the title bar. When you go to a new page, the title bar doesn’t reflect that. Furthermore, it shows a lamer level of punctuation (or shall I say over punctuation) and grammar.
- What the hell is the Outer Sanctum and Warmwood?
- Bad graphics. Really, come on now.
- More bad grammar and not only that but Alaska doesn’t have a parliament.

The first Windows Live product to leave beta status globally will be released tonight by Microsoft. Windows Live Messenger spent just six weeks in public beta. We reviewed most of the features available now when the beta launched.
Most notable are the inclusion of voice calls through the interface and dedicated hardware, offline messaging and an easy system for file sharing.
After years of ridicule by people awaiting the release of Vista and Microsoft’s general reputation for painfully slow development, the release from beta status of Live Messenger may be the first sign of a serious shift in operations in this new, post-Gates era. When it was announced on Thursday that Gates would be giving up his position as Chief Technology Architect to former CTO Ray Ozzie, Live was discussed as the major direction for the company in the future.

My plane trip on Tuesday
I just installed a Flickr plugin and a del.icio.us plugin so you can see what I’ve bookmarked and uploaded recently. Other than that, not much change on this site just yet ^_^;;
FAQs should be up shortly…
technorati tags:FAQs, Flickr, del.icio.us, bookmarked
Flickr has come under fire recently for the perceived ‘lock-in’ that their API creates. Surprisingly, Flickr developer Stewart Butterfield posted in the thread on Flickr: “I actually had a change of heart and was convinced by Eric’s position that we definitely should approve requests from direct competitors as long as they do the same.
That Nina McAuliffe decided to have me close parts of my site down to make sure they don’t look like pages from some other guy’s site. I have never heard of this site before and she’s not even the site’s original owner. I asked around and the owner of the site seems like an honourable person.
So certain features of the site may temporarily be unavailable. Have a nice day.

Lament…
It’s kind of sad, but i can always pinpoint the general time period where I first started using the internet. It was August 1998, right before school. I soon switched from Internet Explorer to Netscape and it was around that time that i managed to secure some web space on a friend’s account (hi ben :P), and started working on my own web pages.
It was in the early 1990s that the internet started to creep into our lives and became the place where many of us live out a significant portion of our existence. For a long time i kinda felt cheated — What i would have done to have the Internet when i was in middle or high school. I had always felt rather isolated living and working where i did and the internet gave me a kind of social life that i’d never really had before. Continue reading ‘Lament…’
