    This is ridiculous. WTF am I doing friend-whoring/surfing/whatever on Friendster?

  • I’m currently browsing my “personal network” under Friendster. Someone should do a paper on the implications of Friendster and similar tools as abstractions/models of the social network hyperspace/graph. Heck, that would be an interesting study— mapping social networks into hyperspace. Issues include navigation of such a hyperspace as presented by Friendster and related applications, and how other models/etc. can be used (i.e instead of HTML and hypertext, why not use visual cues via clustering? or navigating the social network hyperspace via interest clusters?)

    Cross your fingers

    Earlier this afternoon, I received a call on my cellphone. It was a landline I didn't recognize. So, I decided to answer it, to hell with whatever consequences there could possibly be.

    ICMP and Path MTU

    An explanation why dropping ICMP packets via a firewall isn’t all that it’s cut out to be. (It’s a semi-old article, but I’ve only read it today.)

    Ugh. I am starting to be annoyed by LogJam. Then again, I am using an older version— 3.0.4 to be exact, which is a GTK1 version. It dies on me fer cryin’ out loud. Must look at the code. Should be interesting though.

    Look out for the group “Venus Hum”. (Heads-up courtesy of, of all places, MTV Asia). Songs to give a listen to: Soul Sloshing, Sonic Boom, Montana. Sound is electronica with a vocal edge (music press has been comparing them to a cross between Depeche Mode and Bjork). I actually like them, even if I don’t agree with Bjork.

    Recently, I’ve been working on a web-based LDAP browsing and administration tool, as a way of rewriting an earlier projcet. I’ve been doing it as both an exercise and a way to do something to keep my mind active. And recently, there was an email message on the Philippine Linux Users’ Group about it. Woot.
