edd wrote a new blog post: Literature? From Pirates?
As I’ve mentioned before, the goal of this site is to concentrate some of the amazing intelligence and creativity wandering the ethersphere. In order to broaden our horizons and add another avenue of expression for those inclined, I’ll soon be introducing an online magazine dedicated to short works of prose, poetry, art, and fiction. All [...]

I just had to share these neat items I came across at Tesla Down Under (some very cool Tesla coils there, as well):
Photo and info from United Nuclear Scientific Equipment and Supplies.

edd wrote a new blog post: Must Sleep…Finish Later
If you clicked on the ‘My Favorite Webcomics’ link under the blogroll section to the right, you may have noticed that I have very few displayed on that page. Well, adding just the right images and linking them to the right sites and positioning them in an appealing manner has taken more time and [...]

edd wrote a new blog post: DNA and Numerology
I had the thought one day that it would be entertaining to create my own branch of numerology that revolved around the number ‘42′ and Douglas Adams.
Much to my dismay, I find that I’ve been beaten to it. More than once. Even by <a [...] -

Even though this isn’t the same path I traveled to enlightenment, it’s still rather impressive.

edd wrote a new blog post: Even More Themes Available
I’ve added more themes to our repertoire, bringing the total to 400+.
I’ve also been dabbling in my own theme customization, so if you can’t seem to find one that meets your needs or preferences, let me know and I’ll work on one for you. Eventually, I hope to have some unique and expressive themes exclusively available [...] -
edd wrote a new blog post: One More Science-y Post
The majority of my substantive posts have been of a scientific nature though I originally intended to embrace many different areas of interest. The next few days I will focus my energies on other subjects…right after I mention The Synaptic Leap and their Open-Source approach to Biomedical research. (I’m sorry, but how could [...]

edd wrote a new blog post: Cephalopods and Poetry
One of the sites I frequent on an almost daily basis is PZ Myers’ Pharyngula. I rarely read the comment threads, however, since his followers are numerous and entertaining enough in their own right that most of my day would be spent chasing their links, mulling over their points, laughing at their jokes, [...]

edd wrote a new blog post: Swarm Intelligence
Are some of us already on our way to becoming a hive mind?
As of yet, the internet does not dictate our actions, though it may influence them to varying degrees. It is a vast and evergrowing repository of information, however, as well as an incredible communication tool for individuals and groups. Maybe someday, we will be able [...] -

edd wrote a new blog post: Evolving Robots
It seems that there is mounting evidence that evolution is a better tool for building complex organisms capable of adapting to their environment than design.
I wonder what creationists think of this. -

You: Internet surfer who searched ‘edd mudville tavern’
Me: Blogger, site owner, and virtual barkeep now overcome by curiosity. Why did you search those three words in particular? Is there a tavern run by a person named Edd Mudville somewhere? Google didn’t find it for me. Was it a typo? Have I referenced Mudville somewhere and [...] -
edd wrote a new blog post: Consistently Inconsistent
In the event that you’ve noticed some discrepancies in the style or content of my posts/thoughts, I’ll have you know that I am a fervent believer in the virtues of moderation – everything in moderation, including moderation (stolen from Robert Guillaume’s introductory SNL monologue dredged from the misty recesses of memory). In other words, I [...]

edd wrote a new blog post: The Perfect Online Community
Sometimes I dream of a perfect virtual neighborhood where I’m good friends with all my virtual neighbors, I’m invited to all the coolest virtual bar-b-ques, and the neighborhood anti-spam program is top notch. Sigh. Like real life, however, my tastes, moods, and temperament are anything but static and even the best of neighbors are not permanent fixtures.
Anyway, [...] - Load More
