Struggling with Compatibility Issues. One of the things that I truly love about the web is the ability for different people in different countries with different types of computers to all communicate in a similar style. By that I mean that I could post this and then people from all over the world can read it, regardless of their computer type. Then comes instant messaging and now you have to have specific clients (software) to talk with others using that client. So MSN folks can't chat with the AOL people. Well along comes programs like Jabber and that issue is gone. Well now there is a compatiblility with blogging that has me scratching my head. Everyone (including my wife) has jumped on the blogging bandwagon with Xanga. So why Xanga? They have a nice feature that allows you to subscribe to other Xanga surbscribers. So, I could do a Xanga site or just sit here and take the 2 hits a month that I am likely getting (not sure really, just guessing, and really don't care if it is 2 or 2 million). Hmmm.

Oh, I am screaming with highspeed (1.5mb) DSL now. Want to download like crazy but the CD-RW drive on my laptop is crashed so I am a little nervous about doing that. I want to put together some great music lists and burn them. For now I will just work on my expenses and listen to Sean Hannity clearly.
