Donnie Carroll, the rapper-turned-actor’s childhood pal who served as the inspiration for the character Turtle (Jerry Ferrara) on HBO’s Entourage, died Sunday of an asthma attack in Boston. He was 39.
I just downloaded the new WordPress 2.0 and I must say I am damn impressed. They really did update the entire admin. The backend is SICK. All AJAX. And not just this drag-around-with-no-purpose like some stoopid blogs are doing. The sickest part is the re-sizable posting box. They also have an integrated more button. A friend of mind who is playing around on the blog I just installed for him just said "that’s phuking cool!!!"
A few weeks ago I started to debate rebuilding this blogging system — again. I conjured up the idea that I should make it the sickest and slickest blog backend there that is out there. BizBlog 2.0.
Digg has to be the coolest website I have seen all year. The concept is simple and yet it accomplishes so much. It operates on the same open source, user-controlled thinking that makes Wikipedia thrive. Users submit articles from blogs or commercial news sources. If you like the article, you simply click the Digg button and the article receives a vote. The articles with the most Diggs move up hierarchy towards the home page of its category. If an article is Dugg enough, it will wind up on the home page of the site. I quickly visit Digg a few times each day and I am always amused, entertained and informed. I would say that Digg has become RSS 3.0. While Digg isn’t replacing the current XML technology, it is the most phuking awesome form of syndication I have seen.

I don’t think it is possible for me to scream this loud enough.
I have been so phuking busy lately that I haven’t had much time to blog. My mind has been in a million places and this is the only time I actually feel like I have some solitude and clear thoughts. I have about 10 minutes before I fall a sleep from just utter exhaustion. So I better start blogging.
