Yay!

[pdrpiechart data=”Yes. Ill even donate a dinosaur. Or laser.=27|Only if they promise to make him blog LESS. =4|No freaking way. I hate that guy.=2″]

As you may have heard, I have finally worn down the resolve of MakerBot Industries.  They’ve agreed to hire me to blog for them1  The negotiations were long and grueling, with tough concessions on both sides.

I promised to stop hanging around outside the BotCave, move back to California, and blog less.  In exchange, Bre promised to drop the restraining order.  This is really a win-win for everyone!

  1. Suckers!  I would have paid them to do it!  THANK GOD no one reads this blog… []

Maybe you guys can help

My recent post about We Alone On Earth’s MakerBot woes (and some solutions!) caught the attention of some people on Twitter, including Tim freaking O’Reilly.  As in Make Magazine, Maker Faire Tim O’Reilly.

Guys, if you have any sway with MakerBot Industries, tell them to hire me to blog for them already.  :)

Google Maps – a stalker’s best friend

It gets cold in NY at night

Ah, Google, you always know how to build an online tool that straddles the line between helpful and creepy.  Streetview plus Google Maps?  You are truly mana from heaven for stalkers.1

So.  It gets kinda cold outside at night.  I forgot to bring a sleeping bag, so I’ll just crouch down into a little ball, huddled over this laptop for light and warmth. 2  That Penke truck has moved since the Google van took that picture, so there’s not much of a wind break.

You guys going to let blog for you, or what?

Could I at least get a tour of the BotCave?

  1. Not that I know anything about stalkers.  Because I don’t. []
  2. A modern day hobo-caveman.  Robo-caveman?  Scrawling my dreams on the internet walls. []
