Back Up and Running

Well, the blog took a summer vacation, while I finished the final edits on my book, taught a really fun class about classic Hollywood movies, and switched over from PC to Mac. (Re: the latter - all the Mac addicts are right and I was wrong to hold off switching for so long. When I switched from Mac to Windows in the mid-90s, Microsoft had closed the interace gap, and lots of cool software was Windows-only. But now, OS X is a quantum leap above WIn XP, and Apple designs better core apps than anybody else. Much more on that to follow in future posts.)

There's still some more maintenance to come - I'll be switching to the new Movable Type 3.2, which will hopefully fix the brutal comment spam attacks. And once the book's out, I'll be posting regular updates on cyberculture topics, to cover stuff that's happened since the book went to press.

In the meantime, hopefully I'll be able to get back to posting random comments on music, TV, etc. Blogging can be a real time-suck, but it's just too fun to bail on. I'll be back!
