Breaking the web in 2014 - 2016
More site owners are offending the web with their effed-up, bloated javascript-heavy constructions.

Mobile web predictions from November 2005
(My Nov 13, 2005 ToledoTalk.com thread titled Japanese mobility that excerpted from this Nov 10, 2005 post titled How far ahead is Japanese Mobility? My comments below are from that Nov 2005 thread.)
Some thoughts on the subject of mobile web use from a Yahoo! employee.

I visited Ottawa National Wildlife Refuge late on Saturday afternoon, October 25, 2014. The weather was sunny, windy, and warmish with temps near 70 degrees. The fall foliage looked nice.

I walked Barney in the morning. We shopped at Steinmart in Westgate. We shopped at the Toledo Farmers Market. We ate lunch at the Glass City Cafe. We bought two small items at Adams Street Antiques, Art, & Collectibles. We visited the newly-opened small store on Dorr Street called Beads & Books. We relaxed in the afternoon. In the evening, I watched an entertaining college football game between Notre Dame and Florida State.

On Saturday evening, October 4, 2014, DD used a pressure canner/cooker to can Italian green beans that we bought that morning at the Toledo farmers market. She used the 'raw pack method.'

Fleitz Pumpkin Farm visit - Sat, Oct 11, 2014
Toledo morning temps started out in the mid to upper 30s. It turned out to be a sunny, comfy fall afternoon. After shopping downtown at the Toledo farmers market, DD and I drove east of Oregon to visit Fleitz Pumpkin Farm. It was our first visit in a number of years. We visited this place often when CP was little.

Winning at what, exactly? And why do some hardcore geeks worry about whether silos are winning, losing, or whatever? The masses don't care. The masses only want something fun and easy to use. They want to relish in the moment.

The top features for community sites are users and their content
Whatever they are called ...
- social media
- social networks
- forums / message boards
- community blogs
... these sites accept user-generated content, and most likely, these sites host discussions on that content.

Some Ello thoughts - Sep - Oct 2014
(my Sep 29, 2014 comment at ToledoTalk.com with minor corrections and/or additions added below)
If you know someone who already has an Ello account, then you can request an invite from that person. Otherwise, you'll have to wait until Ello gets around to handing out new invites.

Blogging platforms - Summer 2014
TheNextWeb.com story titled The best blogging and publishing platforms on the Internet today, which was updated in June 2014:
While social has changed how we communicate online, blogging remains a core part of things. In fact, the truth is that there’s never been a better time to blog. Social networks help build audiences and deliver content to readers.

Canning Corn Salsa - Sep 21, 2014
Sunday afternoon and evening, I shucked corn and grilled corn, peppers, and onions. DD did the rest, which was a lot: preparing jars, slicing and roasting tomatoes, mixing, cooking, canning, etc. The final product was 29 pint jars of corn salsa. One casualty. A jar with contents broke at the end.

The usual info that gets mentioned each season at this time.
Since the league expanded its playoff field to 12 teams in 1990, 0-2 starts have virtually proven a mortal blow to playoff hopes. Only 11.6% of teams in that span have recovered from 0-2 to reach postseason.
