Happy New Year!

Well, my evening was a bit confused, but I managed to have a good time without having any specific plans.

I went to my friend’s house for a while, and at around 11:00 (yeah, I know it was a little late), I hopped downtown to check out the scene at the Embarcadero.

As I promised, I brought the camera with me so I could let you all in on the celebration here in San Francisco. I was paying more attention to what was happening around me than to the quality of the pictures, but I did manage to capture a few good ones anyway.

Here’s a teaser: (Hint: click the picture to see more Y2KSF pictures)

• I went to buy a bunch of furniture today: Sofa sleeper, love seat, coffee table, end tables…
• I’m gonna bring the camera I got yesterday for the celebration tonight. I’ll post pictures here later…

• Ok, so I couldn’t help myself. I went out and picked up a digital camera: a Kodak DC215 Zoom. Now I can put photos up all over the place. Oh, what fun… Now I just have to figure out how to use it!
• We’re getting ready to try out an NT server for search.macweek.com, to try to abate some of the problems we’ve been having with the server bogging down after a couple of hours. I hope it helps. It’s been my experience that with the exception of the outline processer’s UI, Frontier seems to be both faster and more stable on Windows NT than on MacOS.
• I’ve been trying to sign up to a group that I was invited to join at www.anyday.com, but their directions are vague, and following them doesn’t seem to do what they say it will. I managed to get an account, but I can’t for the life of me manage to join the group. Frontier could do this much better…
• What are your New Year’s plans? I have none. Lame, huh? 
• I’m feeling a little better today. I’m at work for a half-day.
