... my interest over the past few weeks.
Inspired by a silly piece by writer Jeff Rivera on GalleyCat, in which he, the owner of a self-publishing service, and an anonymousauthor question the usefulness of literary agents, agent Miriam Goderich of Dystel & Goderich provides an eloquent rebuttal: Who Needs an Agent? You Do .
From agent Holly Root: why not to sweat the small stuff . “There’s a...
... A&R reps, forum arguments between performing musicians and managers and booking agents and the like, looking into information on services provided by listing companies and reviews on their legitimacy and usefulness, discussions and arguments with several friends who have both inside and outside views on the matter. And then the recording of the album, and subsequent composition/recording of new ...
... I have it the CC graphic--to state what should already be obvious to people who are completely ignorant of intellectual property rights--but it's also why I don't set a whole lot of stock in the usefulness of it. The kind of people who would jump your fence--a signain't gonna stop them.) The problem with this one is that the girl's gotten defiant and is actually kind of being an assbite about ...
...belong here, I was born into this world, and thus have no right to interfere with it. With that comes the truth that I am alone. I found a kindred spirit, but as she learned to belong my usefulness ended. In this world I am nothing. A worthless shell of a man unable to function in the reality around him. She was just like me in the beginning. The difference is that she decided to accept and adapt...
...into the bare skin of his back. Schuldig’s first instinct was to turn around to find the fucker that pushed him, but he stared at the distant windows and jumped as he noticed two milky eyes appraising the usefulness of the thing he’d dredged up from the river. “Be glad we found you,” Amlisch said, his accent strange to Schuldig’s ears.

... needs the current page, well, me, the one that bought the book, is screwed. So we are forced to use the book in class, and those that actually bought a copy have it's in class usefulnessseriously degraded. The times I've skipped class I've gotten that weeks material down much faster and more completely than I did the times I showed up. This professor is actually an active obstacle to learning ...
As Brian queried the existence/usefulness of a central character sheet repository, I added that to our existing library, here . You can either send me your character sheet and tell me to add it, or if you're an enterprising sort you can requestFTPaccess and put it there yourself. (If you're using Character Builder, you're welcome to just send me the .dnd4e file. If you're using GDocs, feel ...
.... I have a list for local people, a list for social media people, and several other lists. While I still will be primarily using tweetdeck to keep track of my twitteraccount, I do see some usefulness with the lists function and will be working with it more in the future. Be on the lookout tomorrow for my more detailed post about twitter lists.
The final change this week has been getting google ...
