Speaking of…  

My linkblog hasn't been updated in some time. I had have a bunch of links that I wanted to get uploaded. The last computer crash lost those. Actually, trying to use an ERD and a restore point cost me those. I've got some put away in an update list for my links to monitor, but I lost a bunch.

I need to either work on deli.cio.us and start marking them, and figuring out a way to puke those onto the linkblog, or come up with my own program that immediately takes what I give it and post it to the blog. None of this wait for a bit and then process them. I think it would be better, that way I can immediately type my comment if I have one, and don't have to worry about trying to keep up with it. It was becoming impossible.

I'd absolutely love to be able to say that my links were unduplicated, but I'm thinking that in the current time, I'm going to go with a real time version of what I had been doing batch.

If I get that going, then maybe I can look at a more database driven program, one that I might actually be able to suck in the data from Blogger, and then spit my own stuff out. I might actually just use Blogger's engine for it. Shoot a bunch of stuff at it (and be labeled a splog at that point?), and let Blogger format the pages for me instead. I dunno.

Update 5/20: Joy, oh joy. I found the links. So my links aren't lost. They just haven't been posted yet. More joy, it's been 12 hours, and the computer hasn't had one of its fits yet. Looking at the event log, it appears that for some reason, the computer wants to access a phantom USB hard drive, which proceeds to hang the rest of the disk read/write queue. The culprit in this? I beleive it was an old version of Google Desktop. I've stopped it, and it seems to be running fine (although a bit hot — time to clean the CPU heat sink!)
