BloggerPeeps tag:www.bloggerpeeps.com,2007://2 2007-03-16T20:16:35Z Dave's favorite blogger people! Movable Type 3.31 The Peep Popper tag:www.bloggerpeeps.com,2006://2.2979 March 12, 2006 March 12, 2006 I have done very little Flash programming in ActionScript, so trying to figure out how to build the little "Peep Popper" widget is going to take a little more time than I had thought. The purpose of this little side-bar... Dave2 I've got it to display. I've got it to randomly load peep-heads. But I can't seem to make clicking on a peep-head load a peep-site. And then there's the whole mess of writing a timer to cycle through new peep-heads.

So now I'll take the time to investigate invisible buttons and all that crap in an attempt to move forward with this thing. Such a pity, because I thought that the hard part would be figuring out how to eliminate server-side scripts and stuff.

Dave2 by Paul Davidson During a difficult time in my life, a friend thought I needed a laugh and handed me a book called "Consumer Joe." It's a hilarious collection of outrageous letters written to companies with complaints, suggestions, and questions (made even funnier by the replies that the author received back). Years later I received a comment on my blog from a Paul Davidson. When I followed the link back to his site, I discovered it was the same Paul Davidson who had written "Consumer Joe!" My amazement in finding out that an author I enjoy had commented on my blog was secondary to my amazement that the guy had his own blog where he gave away his writing for free! Words for My Enjoyment is a daily dose of humor delivered as only Pauly can, and is an absolute must-read.

Dave2 by Karla Often humorous tales from the life of a Texan living in Norway, Karla's blog is filled with the kind of entries that I wish I were clever enough to pull off. From witty observations of life in Oslo, to bizarre situations only she could encounter, Tales of a Texpatriate is an eclectic mix of fun if there ever was one (and one of the oldest links on my blogroll). As if that weren't enough, my favorite Texpatriate is a seasoned traveler who is kind enough to share travel tales with her readers. When you add it all up, it's no wonder Karla is at the top of my list of "Bloggers I Most Want to Meet in Person." In the meanwhile, I'll be content to vicariously hang out with her through her blog.

Tales of a Texpatriate...]]> Welcome to BloggerPeeps! tag:www.bloggerpeeps.com,2006://2.2978 March 5, 2006 March 5, 2006

After a minor set-back spent battling kidney stones, things are finally underway. This development blog will keep track of additions and changes to the site that are going on "behind the scenes" here. BloggerPeeps was created as an "anti-network" that... Dave2 BloggerPeeps was created as an "anti-network" that will allow me to promote the "blogger people" I've come to know from my personal site. They, in turn, will be able to promote each other with badges and widgets if they feel like it. Invited members are under no obligation to link to anything, and any community that comes out of this will be strictly voluntary.

Outside of that, BloggerPeeps is really nothing more than a fancy blogroll. There's no promises, just a way of finding blogs that may interest you, and maybe a way to pass them along to others.

It's a nasty blogosphere out there. Play nice.
