In other news, my site has finally been indexed by google, as well as added to Dmoz, who's link is above. I now understand where my new visitors are coming from. Hello!

As for dmoz, it has me listed as a personal blog about the internet, technology, and media. I guess I better start talking about some of that.

I purchased a book today called "Programming Spiders, Bots, and Aggregators in Java". So far, I'm learning, but I'm not enjoying the book. At the end of every section (even really small ones consisting of a sigle page) the author tells what will be discussed next. Now, if I'm trying to write a spider, don't you think I'm smart enough to read the heading half an inch down the page to figure out what the next section is about? I'm not even done with the first chapter, and I'm already annoyed. However, the code is well-commented and easy to understand. Maybe I'll have something written soon.
