Hacking My Own Accounts

Some of you may have noticed I’ve been silent for a week. My computer was in for repairs (a stuck CD drive, boo), Apple reposessed it and was dragging its feet in the tech support arena. Meanwhile, I discovered that I hadn’t written down my login and password for Wordpress anywhere so I couldn’t get in to blog! This was total negligence on my part and I apologize for my silence. But all’s well again, I can play my music CD’s and I’ve returned to the blogosphere, with my lesson intact: keep adequate documentation of all your login info.

YM Blog-a-Thon:Learning to Love

In late December, a group of friends and I sat on my homegirls bedroom floor and shared New Year’s resolutions. We talked for hours, drinks in hand, and shared sob stories of former boo’s and missed opportunities. Our stories were all different, but one thing was certain: the new year was going to be different. So we made a pact and jokingly called it ‘Campaign ‘08’: the unabashed pursuit of safe, non-dramatic romance with chill folks.

90s Dot-Coms — Where Are They Now?

An anonymous reader writes "The Industry Standard has put together a list of 10 dot-com stars from the Internet bubble of the late 1990s, and tracked down what happened to the services and their founders. A lot of the services are still around, albeit under new ownership, including eToys, Garden.com, and DrKoop.com. Others have been completely reinvented — Boo.com, an online clothing retailer that burned through $125 million in funding in the late 1990s, is now an online travel community. Of the founders, many were able to cash out early and/or achieve later online success. Excite's Joe Kraus and Graham Spencer later started JotSpot, which was bought by Google, and Kraus now directs work on Google's OpenSocial initiative. Others did not fare as well, such as two of the co-founders of Garden.

In pictures: Larger than life

Beryl Cook, the painter who achieved fame for her bold, unpretentious portrayals of ordinary people, has died aged 81. Cook never trained professionally, but her paintings sold fast when she put them on display in the mid-1970s, and she rapidly became a household name. Though art critics have rarely taken her seriously, her work has as many affinities with Stanley Spencer as the peek-a-boo style of the English seaside postcard, and Gateshead's Baltic mounted a major retrospective in 2007.
