And then there was Twitter

Ah Twitter, yes you know the place. Where people talk about whatever is going on in their lives. It's a place for communication with other twits... no, wait... that's not the correct term um... other tweeters... no... what's the phrase I'm looking for? Oh yes, others that have been stung by the Tweeting Bird so to speak. Do birds sting? Well, if they don't this one sure does.

It's become one of the largest fads since Myspace, Blogging, and Geocities... (remember them? oh yeah, they're soon to be gone, if not already gone).

Twitter has become a household name. No one else has done microblogging quite like it.

When it comes to ways to put your tweet out there, there are hundreds of applications to choose from.

You can tweet from your phone, from your computer, from your mobile device (iphone, ipod touch, blackberry etc.) you can tweet just from about anywhere.

Twitter doesn't sleep... you tweet it displays.

You can even post links to your blog after they've been posted via Twitter.

Twitter has become the new RSS.

So, are you tweeting? If not, why not?

Go forth and tweet!

Ever Wonder

 Ever just sit and wonder about the things to wonder about? There are so many things that you can enjoy and think about or wonder about. It's just possible that you would be able to do such a thing. I'm not certain how it would go for you, as I am only a person. I don't know how you feel. So here we are, just waiting for something amazing to happen. It doesn't happen all the time unfortunately. It can be annoying at best.

Multidimensional Arrays

Ah Multidimensional Arrays. Nothing too crazy in JavaScript. Just a little bit of this and that. So typical arrays are fun and easy. You create them like so: var colors = new Array(); colors[0] = "Red"; colors[1] = "Yellow"; colors[2] = "Blue"; Well that's fine and dandy, but what if you want to associate something with each of those? For example, what if you wanted to create a menu? You'll need at minimum a link name and a target. We could do something like this: var colors = new Array(); colors[0] = new Array(); colors[0][0] = "red.htm"; colors[0][1] = "Red"; colors[1] = new Array(); colors[1][0] = "yellow.htm"; colors[1][1] = "Yellow"; colors[2] = new Array(); colors[2][0] = "blue.htm"; colors[2][1] = "Blue"; function createColors() { document.write('<ul id="colors">'); for (var i = 0; i < colors.length; i++) { var link = colors[i][0]; ...
