read articleUplifter Waning
It seems like the meeting is winding down. There are ostensibly 45 more minutes left, but everyone left a little bit ago so I think it is effectively over. It was a really good meeting, a number of people of various levels of experience and question. People were helped, questions asked and answered...
read articleHere in Charleston
I'm at the Uplifter meeting in Charleston, although I think I'm preceding it by some. My stuff is mostly still in the car and I just realized that I didn't bring my CVS camcorder cable. Damn it! Dan just showed up, so the nerding begins. I'll try to flickr some photos throughout the...
read articleChange of Address
Whoa, I've been on this same cable modem system for almost two years, and today I got a different IP address. Previously, I'd had the same one for the entire life of this service. Freaky. If I weren't spasticly taking a glance at AmigoFish server logs, I'd not have known it and then tomorrow if I...

read articleUplifter Help Needed
Crossposted to the Uplifter Blog. I need help, and whatever anyone can give is good. Because of the very high workload I had the last two weeks, I didn't get done a lot of the things I wanted to do for promoting the Carolina Uplifter meeting. I have fliers ready to go which I will hang at Coastal...

The basic framework of the Uplifter stuff exists. There is now a wiki and a group blog. Anyone that is interested should feel free to contribute to either or both. The one thing about both is that they require registration to participate. I thought about this and think that for this particular deal,...
