sent out the announcement today for the “grand re-opening” of OOKEE.com:

It was bound to happen… Herr Nerad and Herr McCoy have reworked OOKEE.com .

Marvel as the site begins to shift toward interactivity! Imagine the surging power of RSS… surging right at you. Lick your screen and taste the excitement as the pages load with color… Granted, not a lot of color, but color nonetheless! Wonder at the site that distills the internet into a 150 proof shot of distraction par excellence!

With almost daily updates, a fine texture and just a hint of Jolt Cola you’ll find OOKEE.com a feast for your mind and… well your mind in any case. Submit to OOKEE.com! Or, alternatively, submit a link you think everyone will find delectable. Now back to work, slave!

deus ex ookeena,

Todd and Doug

so far we haven’t gotten much response, though i’m not really suprised by that. next week and maybe over the weekend is when i expect to see things start happening. i’m hoping that people will get involved -especially after i get “comments” up and running- and maybe start sending in links. it will be quite a chore to have to find new material everyday!

mmm… split pea soup.

i guess i’ll have to be careful about the times i post things during the workday as it is a simple thing to see when i’ve not been working that way. oh well.

meanwhile i’ll still be posting links that i find important to me on sp.ookee.com, like the following.

i was very upset when the supreme court threw out the recent eldred case allowing the legislature to effectively extend copyright law ad nauseum. i was very heartened to find the lawrence lessig (who tried the case) blog and see that he has not really given up the fight, though it has become more than a steep battle. one start he proposes is to get a copyright tax going. if congress and corporations want to treat copyright as *property*, then they should be taxed for it just like any other property. why isn’t intellectual property taxed just like physical property?
