I Hate Myspace

“The Function that you are currently trying to use is disabled and will be back shortly. We are making some minor changes to this section so please bear with us until we can get it back online.

Please do NOT email me about this. Just wait it out. Dec 23, 2008 -Tom”

I dislike Myspace. Not the whole idea of it, just the site and how it is maintained. First of all, I would understand if the message above had to do with a minor site component. For example, if the comments section of the site was down. But in this case, the “function that I am currently trying to use” is the the main function of this whole god damned site. THE LOG IN PAGE. Come on, Tom, you don’t see Facebook putting up messages like these! For christ sakes, at least work on the website at an hour where traffic is the lowest like 4 AM. Not 8 pm, the prime time when 14 year olds log on to see if their significant other is cyber cheating on them. And it doesn’t help that Tom has to be an asshole about his site being down. “Please do NOT email me about this. Just wait it out.” We all know that Tom is out partying with other dot com millionaires and not slaving away in front of the computer screen to fix this.

The Downfall of Torrent Downloading?

20 11 2008

In July of 2001, P2P filesharing giant Napster was shutdown after many lawsuits (most popular being the Metallica lawsuit). The same is happening to many torrent sharing sites such as Pirate Bay and I fear that in a few years torrents will be nothing but a piece of internet past.

The eradication of Napster can be explained in a few simple words: ease of use. Curious music enthusiasts could go to the Napster website, download and run the program and the damage would already be done. Several keystrokes and one click of the search button would be all one needed to do in order to illegally download a song.

Unlike Napster, KaZaA, and Limewire, torrents are a little harder to obtain. A combination of steps are needed in order to download a torrent file. You must first download a torrent application such as BitTorrent. Many are confused by what to do next. They think that you use the program to find the torrent and thats all, but this is not the case. One must then choose a torrent site like torrentspy or bushtorrents, search for a file with the right amount of seeds and leechers, and then open the torrent file using the program.

I hope to God that no one develops a torrent program with an easy to use interface and search bar like Napster. This will lead to the simplification of torrent downloading, thus getting the word out about torrents, increasing their popularity, and eventually killing torrent files forever…

New Masthead + Name

10 11 2008

Created a new masthead as you see above. It might take a little while to load (I tried to make it as small as possible). Yes that is my face up there. Also renamed my blog to Moblongata. The URL is still patrickdaley.wordpress.com though. I am working on an official website created completely by myself without the help of wordpress. Stay tuned.





The Creation of Barack

25 10 2008

Created this for my american government class. The assignment was to create a traditional political advertisement..I kind of strayed away from the traditional aspect. This can be viewed from both sides of the political fence, which is what I was aiming for. From a republican standpoint, this could be very tongue-in-cheek; referring to all the godly hype surrounding Obama. On the other hand, as a democrat, people could view this as like the text suggests. That Obama being the first African-American president, is keeping Martin Luther King Jr.’s dream of equality between races alive. I just wanted to make people think with this one.
