net.mind : My rambling contributions to global intelligence.

This section is the whole reason that this site exists.

There are things that I want to share with the world. Some of them may end up being inane little peeks into my life with no further purpose than to make you feel like you know me a little better. But they aren't why I created net.mind.

The 'net is truly amazing: the other day I wanted to know how long you could keep eggs in the refrigerator before they go 'bad'. ["When Eggs Go Bad--Tuesday on Fox!"] 5 minutes of searching later (after learning more than I originally wanted to know about hatching chickens) I found a large table of various food items, listing how long they would last in the refrigerator or freezer.

That's Beautiful! I wanted the information, and someone had taken the time to put it on the web for the betterment of all. That's what net.mind is about.

• When I've fought through a problem (e.g. figuring out how to get my cablemodem working with an ethernet hub when comcast refuses to talk to me about that setup), I want to be able to share it with the world.
• When I've just come up with a neat idea, something which I think will help spark creative ideas and burn new neural pathways into the mind...I want you to know about it.
• When I think that lists of items are always best in threes, that information shouldn't languish in my little brain and only be heard by a few of my friends!

net.mind is here for everyone, and that's why I've added the ability for comments to be made for each node on this site. When you have additional thoughts on a topic, post it onto the page. When I'm being dumb, let the world know! [I'll probably delete your comment, but who knows, it might slip through. :)]

Enjoy, bookmark the pages (the site is framed, but each page has a unique, terse URL), and please let me know if you have any comments on how the site could be better.
