I’m normal, right?

I’ve upgraded the site to the latest version, so things may be a bit wonkey for a bit. Hopefully nothing too crazy, but if you see anything, a heads up would be awesome. Also, I fixed the issue with my timezone being off by one. I apparently made a mistake when I set things up a while ago.

The Internet, Web Development

Since having updated in June of 2006:

160+ Blog posts (check the numbers in the archive, the increase is pretty cool)
885 Items added to my Photo Gallery
1860 Comment Spam Messages Obliterated

Not bad for six months. Overall, I say the move was a good plan.

Ok, so I just realized how much I’ve been spoiled by the XBox 360 and it’s online community stuff. Because of the gamercard, things like MyGamerCard.net and 360 Voice are possible, and damnit, I demand this from more of my devices. Or at least, I don’t know, my Wii. Or how about my Zune? My blog needs more hooks to these things for me, and I can’t because there currently isn’t anything in place, and…and…I want it.

Seriously, I never realized how spoiled I have become till I realized I wanted to put what my Mii on my site. Suddenly I couldn’t do that. There’s no slick and awesome way of including my favorite Zune tracks in an email signature (I actually see my gamercard tags in email signatures at work). The Zune thing I find truly funny since the slogan is “Join the Social” Sure, I raved about this when I first go the 360, but I kind of just took it for granted. All this community stuff…I need it. I expect it.

I understand that there are people who don’t want that level of information to be available about them, but there are privacy settings for just that reason. I, on the other hand, like letting people know what I like to play and listen to. Shoot, I actively blog about it.

You have me hooked, XBox Division, you have me truly hooked.
