Musings on storage

I have been pondering online backup for months now, as my brother suggested it might be a good way to prevent data loss in a crash (like the one I had several months ago with my Seagate drive; crash, update, and resolution), and the high cost of data retrieval afterward. So, I’ve been idly looking Continue reading

The Dollhouse and the Rossum Corporation

Wow, this is a really awesome viral campaign! Rossum Corporation launched a web site in apparent reaction to Senator Perrin’s Senate investigation of both the corporation, and the allegations of a Dollhouse (or Dollhouses). According to Whedonesque, when the Rossum contact number is called, and a message left, you will receive a message imploring you Continue reading

Why I watch Dollhouse

I must be getting old…

Weirdness…

I went to go and pay for my Wordcamp Dallas passes and the site was down. Annoying. In other crashing news (from yesterday): fans followed Miracle Laurie’s suggestion to call Fox Broadcasting and encourage them to renew Dollhouse. How do we know? They crashed Fox’s phone system.

Thoughts on the Dollhouse Finale, and it’s press

The SciFi Wire just put out an article called “Why we love Dollhouse – and why we hate it!” (the emphasis is theirs), which has SPOILERS for last weeks episode – please don’t visit the link if you haven’t seen it yet. Anyway, they asked Alyx why she (he?) loved Dollhouse, and Janna why she Continue reading
