Larry pointed me to a site that totally ripped my design at MobileTracker. The CSS even has my designer’s email addy in it!
Gizmodo linked them today, that’s how Larry found it, so I wrote the editor to ask him to not link in the future since the site is low on ethics. He was surprised and agreed.
I’ve emailed the site alerting them that this is a copyright violation and is absolutely not acceptable. We’ll see…
UPDATE: I found the site is owned by Dhiram Shah, who also runs PhoneyWorld.com.
Every 10 Minutes, the new under the cap game from Pepsi, Yahoo and Xbox is genius. They are giving out an Xbox 360 every 10 minutes for nine weeks (24/7). According to my math, that’s a tad over 9,000 units in total which is a heck of a lot.
The website, www.every10minutes.com, allows you to enter in the codes from under the cap and select what 10 minute slot to place your “chips” on. You can put any number on any single contest, as long as you have the green. Even better, you can see how many others are currently in the running.
I just put 1 cap on the 7PM contest and played againt 750 of my closest friends. I didn’t win, someone in KY did, but I was very very impressed with the website. Even more impressed at the odds–1/750 is doable and seems almost too good to be true. Kudos to Pepsi and Yahoo (who made the website). Even if you don’t like soda you should buy one and enter just to see the website in action.
I ordered a camera from Sony Style a while ago–it was a pre-order. Just now (3AM ET) I got an email saying my credit card was declined. My bank was recently bought out, so I have a new card and the number did change inbetween the time I ordered and now. I suppose they charge upon shipment which is nice, but it said my order was cancelled. Why not just ask for a new number?
There was a 1-800 number in the email, so I called it and went through the phone loop for home customer service. Sorry, call back in business hours! Too bad they sent the email about my order not working in non-business hours.
Urgh. I have a feeling I’ll be tossed to the back of the line now.

This could be the one that has been talked about for quite awhile–the major strike on New Orleans. The city sits under sea level and could become a lake. Hurricane Katrina has become a cat 5 (the highest) after rolling across southern Florida as a cat 1 storm.
Sustained winds are up to 175MPH which is F3 tornado type strength, only hurricanes last for hours not seconds.
God speed.
SixApart has finally shipped MovableType 3.2, you can snag it from your account. I’m installing it right now and will update on what I think.
UPDATE: Love the style changes. I think I’m going to try out running comments on each story now (without moderation) to test out the new comment spam management features.
… And the world listens. I’m sure you’re sick of hearing about it, but GoogleRumors is on a breakout.
