I’ve been enjoying the dynamic publishing power of WordPress, but I miss the templating system of MovableType. Solution? MovableType 3.1 has been released, which features dynamic pages. I’ll have to test it out in a subdirectory and see if it’s worth switching to…

I don’t normally go in for web quizes, but this one seems pretty spot on (via Rebel Prince).

You are a RPIG–Reserved Practical Intellectual Giver. This makes you a Rock of Gibraltar.

You are loyal, kind, thoughtful and conscientious. You’re a good person. You make everyone around you happier and better, even if you yourself are not at your happiest or best. You just care so much about your friends and loved ones that you can’t help giving them everything of yourself. It can wear you out, but you’d never let on.

You’re successful, smart and fun to be with, but your self-esteem could use some boosting. You don’t like conflict, and you don’t like demanding things for yourself, so you can feel unappreciated. But then you wonder if you don’t deserve to be appreciated. You do!

You have many small crushes, but it takes you ages to get to a serious stage with someone. You get so caught up second-guessing yourself and worrying if the other person really *likes* likes you that you never dare to make the first move. Generally you end up with another clever RPIG who knows one when s/he sees one. This adds up to one long courtship. Fortunately this also adds up to one long marriage.

You would never cheat. You would never hurt anyone’s feelings. You are so sympathetic and give so many second chances that it takes a lo-o-ong time for anyone to get on your bad side.

Your only problem is you can be *too* thoughtful — you can end up worrying and getting hung up over nothing.

I think it’s a pretty fair assessment of Jeff as well, meaning our relationship should last.

Ever since pictures of the upcoming SideKick II were posted, I’ve been sitting on the edge of my seat waiting for it to be released. I briefly had one of the original models, but the signal strength wasn’t strong enough in Kirksville, MO and I had to send it back.

I’ve been a Palm user for years and I wasn’t looking forward to giving up on my favorite applications (like Vindigo) if I got a SideKick. But I always thought the Treo 600 was really big and clunky from the pictures.

Then, one of my new residents showed me his Treo the other day and I’ve fallen in love with it. Now that pictures have surfaced of the Treo 650, I’m counting down the days to its release instead.
