I was taking one semi-funny semi-serious online test about Internet addiction. I went through all the questions and was about to press the submit button. There was a text under the button saying that after I press it, I will get the results of the test in the text area below. I pressed it. And the browser crashed.
At first I though it was a joke. Than I realized that it wasn’t. Than I started thinking of what I should do. If I went back and did the test again, I would knew without it that I was addicted. If I didn’t go back, I wouldn’t know if I am.
Finally, I decided that I am somewhat addicted and that I shouldn’t take the test anymore. In fact, I should probably take less online tests as most of them are as inaccurate as horoscopes printed in newspapers. Yeah. Amen to that.
A huge list of blogging services was bookmarked today. Some of these are very well known, others are not.

I am trying to stop using the “www.” part when typing in URLs. The web has gone a long way and most of the websites don’t need to start with WWW. Just the domain is fine.
But I have been typing “www.” into the address bar for so long that I don’t do it on purpose anymore. My fingers just remember it and use it every time I switch to address bar. I type it even faster than I can realize that I’m typing it. I got better at realizing in the last few days though. Now I catch myself when I’m done only with a couple of first “w”.
It becomes really annoying. Imagine your hands doing something you’ve forbidden them to do. Won’t that freak you out?
When I will finally get rid of the “www.” in my address bar, I’ll start to get rid of “http://”. I know that protocol is much more useful than those stupid domain parts, but when browsing the web, HTTP is the default protocol and even if you don’t specify it, the browser knows ho to handle that.
I really really like Flickr service, but I can’t find a good way to use it. Since I have my own server that hosts all my photographs, I don’t really need to upload anything anywhere else. My current photo albums don’t have all the functionality that I could get from Flickr – tags, search, feeds, comments – but I hope that I will migrate to some powerful album software soon enough.
Once in a while I still upload some pictures, go through galleries, and leave some comments here and there. That’s about all I do with it.
Does anyone of you uses Flickr? What’s your profile? Do you know of any way I could use Flickr together with this blog?
By the way, if you are interested, my Flickr gallery is here.
