Grr! Work is annoying me. I just spent like half an hour setting something up, and I finally got to try it, and it didn't work. So I'm letting off some steam by posting!

Google released an API for Google Maps, which is neat. I'm playing around with it some - made my own map for experimentation. Fun! (I'm open to suggestions for other markers...)

AMD is suing Intel for abusing their monopoly position. The CEO of AMD took out a full-page ad in the Statesman explaining and urging people to read their full complaint, which I did yesterday. Fascinating reading! If it's true, then they have very legitimate grievances.

Yesterday Canada approved gay marriage, and Spain did the same today. Woohoo!

I can't believe July 4 is coming up so soon. I get Monday and Tuesday off, which totally rocks. Planning on a fun weekend!

Ooh, add a marker for me! It probably won't do my exact apartment building, but it's still cool :D I'll email you my address, in case you don't have it :)

Sweet! (I was gonna do yours, but couldn't remember exactly where it was...all those roads and trees...riata confuses me...)

It's up - and I used the satellite view to try to get it pointed at your building...

And you succeeded! Rockin'!

And as for the link to the AMD Official Complaint, day-mn they've got a good case there! I would love to see that punch through.

You know, now you have to put all of us on there...
Neato though! (Annoyed, my version of mozilla doesn't like google maps, and my version of opera only kinda likes them...)

Done! (I think that's your building, right? Your complex looks weird...)

Perfect! (A little scary actually, since I think you pretty much pegged our porch...)
