So, last night on the way home from the recording studio i randomly ran into Ariel as he was walking to his campus from the train station. Ariel is a great friend of mine who just happens to go to the snooty ivy-leauge university that’s situated across the street from here. I began walking with him, and he reminded me that i had promised to see a show he designed the set for, and that it was closing night. I immediately felt pretty shitty about this, because Ariel comes to see every show i’m involved with at Drexel, but I didn’t give him a firm answer about it until he reminded me that a certain female friend of his might be attending, and that i could hang out with her after the show while he took down the set. Don’t you love run-on sentences?

Recorded an entirely kick-ass version of “Relief” down in the studio with sweetly mic-ed vocals and guitar in stereo. Oh yeah! However, i haven’t yet been told how to get from ADAT to compact disc or digital audio, so this amazing song will stay tucked away on my tape until i am told how to do things correctly. However, i got this down on my first take, which bodes well for the future of my next demo disc. Oh yeah!

I’m always very intrigued by all sorts of interesting webrings like Domain-ated and Need, but when i look at them i realize that i’m not entirely too interested in lumping myself in with such a group of people. Also, i refuse to use WebRing.org sing Yahoo bought it, which is the same reason i left Geocities around this time last year. I was hoping that Yahoo would be able to seamlessly integrate each site that it absorbed, but as it is it just gets harder and harder to reconcile your well thought out user names and passwords as Yahoo adds site after site to their network. And, frankly, they don’t offer a single service that i can’t find a better version of elsewhere. So there!

I’ve put myself in a weird place by offering hosting on my main page without any sort of qualifier about who i would or could host. So far i am hosting a handful of IllegalOp staff members, since their site collapsed under it’s own weight, plus my roommate matt, and courtney (a good internet pal of mine for quite a while now). In Courtney’s case, i knew her site was amazing so i practically recruited her for hosting. This week i also offered to host Stephanie from NewWorldCoffee so that she could put together a respectable digital portfolio. So, the pattern is that i host friends and nice sites. But, what about random people? I want to host quality content, good looking pages, and savvy webmasters. So far i’ve had a couple of requests from people with no website, and i had to turn them away. However, i just got a request from here, and i’m not entirely sure what to do. Obviously my first order of business needs to be putting up a hosting info page so i don’t get so many random requests, but i’m not sure if i should invite him to UpRush.org or not. any thoughts?
