Hello smile

I'm Siobhan Curran/Kisa Naumova, and this is my weblog. I tend to write about stuff like crossdressing, Macs, code, cats, wine and Second Life, but in general it's just an ongoing conversation about all sorts of stuff. If you'd like to know a little bit more about what this all is, I recommend starting on this page which has a little bit of info on who I am, and what I'm trying to do — or you could dive into my five years worth of archives if you like.

Otherwise, feel free to close this box and explore...

Oh Pants

This is the problem of trying to be too clever and cunningly coding your blog so you can do it via email — without keeping a good grip on what day things are written. This stuff that follows should be on yesterday. Obviously, now that I've got into a terminal and can ssh home, I could edit things and keepp it tidy — but I like how sometimes my fuck-ups get displayed for all to see, so I'm going to leave it as a disjointed mess :smile:

Ooh, actually, if I just put in a quote-thing, then maybe I can get away with it looking intentional :unsure:

This like http://www.flickr.com/groups/infinite/pool?

No Gillian, I was demonstrating how easy it was to put Stuff™ online using sites like Flickr to a group of MA students, by taking a picture of the screen with my phone, and uploading it while I was talking to them.

The glorious thing was that in between me uploading the picture, and me showing it to them, Miss K left a note and Jane left a comment on it (unprompted, I have to add), so I could demonstrate just how immediate the process was.

Their timing was perfect :biggrin: It really hammered home the point I was trying to make about the ease and simplicity of things like Flickr, and the sense of 'participation' and 'community' that exists online.

They all know about Siobhan now BTW. And also about Kisa :smile:

"They all know about Siobhan now BTW." — surprised you didn't add, "Now follow that!" :smile:

I don't get you Rachel :unsure: What do you mean?

Any chance you could expand that a little? I'm sure there's a very interesting story there.

Gosh, I was thinking exactly the same thing just a few moments ago...

This isn't another one of your puzzles is it, because the last one was ^f^@^c^k^@^n^g impossible!

Looks a bit like an email header to me. You know chuck; I don't think you'll be satisfied 'till you can plug a modem directly into your brain! (Maybe Becky's Cyberwoman mash-up wasn't too far-fetched after all :smile: .)

Oh, For Pete's Sake

It's not going well tonight is it? Instead of emailing that picture to Flickr, I sent it straight to Erin — who got all confused and spewed that borkage all over the screen.

Shall I stop trying to be clever? Eh? :rolleyes:

Sure Dan, just as soon as I fix that mess above.

I thought you'd gone bonkers and actually done that thing we were discussing where you present all your photos as UUencoded 7-bit from now on.

Miss K

"I don't get you Rachel What do you mean?" As in "Now I've outed myself what about you lot?". Guess my mind just doesn't work like anyone else's... Guess my mind just doesn't work. Whatever. :smile:

I'm out to my Orthodontist.

I rarely say this, but: ROTFLMAO!

NRT

Thank you, but I suspect you rarely say that because it looks quite hard to pronounce.

My apologies for turning up late, I had emailed and texted but the message had obviously not been passed on. I'd have loved to have seen you do it. Thumbs up ;P

I want to hear the story too! I bet you got some interesting reactions. Should have just shown up for class done up and seen if anyone even recognized you.
