This is just a test post with perks: I get to see if Image Manager by Per Søderlind solves my little problem with IE not being able to show the WordPress image uploader. And it does, so nana-nana-booboo, Mr. Gates. My readers (all seven of you!) get to see my great-niece, Alexa. All snowy and cute. And perky. And it works! The crowd goes wild. Extended geeky navel-gazing follows… I had been somewhat puzzled by the fact that at home, I could upload images via either the WordPress built-in uploader, or via ecto, but I could not upload images while at work.…

BBC – Drama – Life On Mars – Series 2 The excellent BBC cop show about a modern day police detective who has some sort of accident in 2006 and wakes up in 1973, as a cop, in that very shaggy, very “me decade” decade returns sometime this year on BBC One. There’s no telling how long until it shows up on BBC America, though, which leaves me feeling a bit glum. That reminds me – I really need to check out BBCA and see if I need to ginger up TiVo a bit.

AP Wire | 01/30/2007 | Panel hears climate 'spin' allegations WASHINGTON – Federal scientists have been pressured to play down global warming, advocacy groups testified Tuesday at the Democrats' first investigative hearing since taking control of Congress.

Flickr’s been bugging me to update my log-in from the “old skool” ID I originally built to a Yahoo-based ID. So I did it, and then after it was too late, they airily mention on the “welcome to the new skool” landing page that any API-based Flickr tools and applications I may have might not work anymore. Oh. Well, thank you for warning me in advance. ecto uses a very handy and important-to-me API app that pulls in photos from Flickr very easily so I can post them, and also eventually I’ll get the Photo Album plug-in working on my…
