Mike – I’d noticed that too. It’s the out of the box setting. It appears to be some sort of feed aggregator thing – http://www.brindys.com/winrss/feedformat.html Though I’m not sure how many aggregators really register themselves properly so that a browser’ll know what to do. Will look into it.

Hey Gerson,

Just a comment: I notice at the bottom of the page, you have these two links: “Entries (RSS)” and “Comments (RSS)”. I know all about RSS feeds and stuff, but I think the URLs are broken; they both have “feed:” in front of the real URL. Firefox doesn’t seem to know what to do with that, and I don’t expect IE6 to know either.

– Mike

PS – I like the “web log” (for people who hate the word “blog”)

Yeah, zoogi, the other stuff is from Glitter Rock. You DID miss the holiday special, but don’t kill yourself or anything. This is the year of Star Wars, and we’ve still got the Ewoks cartoon and “Return of the Jedi” to get through. Zum zum!

Oh Gersh, you know you’re my first love when it comes to cap sites. ^_^
Wait, that don’t make me queer do it? I ain’t queer.

“The rose goes in the front pal.”
*slaps ass*

But thanks all the same. More caps=more humor for the world, and you can never have enough of that.

Zee – yes, the gallery expands and contracts. When I remember to, I’ll expand it for things for the Turkey Day marathon or the old timers gatherings. My target is to try to make it reasonably easy to read all the new caps that appear while you’re making your own, while not allowing old caps to hang around. I feel the fleeting nature of captions was one of the appeals of the old site.

Full frontal’s not gonna happen, but there is the very occasionl bewby, usually belonging to Kim Kim Cattrall, and typically only after midnight (eastern time).

zoog – Sure, I go and make this blog to better serve the community, thereby increasing my sites’ popularity, and before I even make my third post, I have to reveal the competition or look like a stuck up jerk. All that fanboy stuff is over at glitter’s cap-page board:

Whee! Blog-o-rific!

I got one for my site too… haven’t updated it in like a month. -_-

But its nice to see a centralized place to comment, bitch, moan, complain, whine, cajole, and other annoying behaviors. Thanks Gershon! ^^

And Zee, if you read this, how the heck does one get in on capping those other works you post up? Man, I wish I had been there for those Star Wars Xmas Specials…

Your site is FABulous, Gerson, I don’t get on it enough lately. Here’s a question: Am I crazy, but does the number of caps shown in the gallery jump around? Right now there’s 18, but I swear I’ve been here when there’s been, like, THIRTY caps in the gallery. Am I just hallucinating?

As for content, well, more full-frontal nudity would be the obvious choice.

Yours in Dada,
Zee

There’s only one new addition to the English language I can think of that I object to more than “blog” (which sounds like a muddy boot-camp experience). That other new word to which I refer is, “bling-bling”. Brings me to a rage.
Thanks for letting me vent. I feel better already.

First, I’m planning to make a more detailed post about the decisions and logisitics behind the pictures you see. But the short form answer to what happened to live tv:

When I switched over to digital cable and a cable modem:
(1) It became more difficult to automatically change channels when I wasn’t around.
(2) The grabber and my tv had to live in the same room.
(3) The constant uploading of images to the server via a cable modem was a suspected cause in a server crash that brought my site and many others on my web host down.
and
(4) I wanted to guarantee that the site would not have to be shut down again (as it had been due to the crash) and decided to remove the possibility of a big old cease and desist letter from big shot TV lawyers that I didn’t have the ability to fight.
