Because, you see, I am a moron.

I know. I had this really cool post about the lack of intelligent life that had visited Earth, and the statistics that backed up the fact that we might have intelligent life and they simply haven't gotten here yet. And the iPad mini came out, which is like shooting fish in a barrel.
There was so many easy blog posts throughout the month of October that I literally could have coughed and ended up with a tech link that was begging for a blog post. I know. I'm sorry.
However, I have a solution. I'm going to livestream my November novel. As you may or may not recall, the last time I tried this, I posted parts of the novel as I wrote them to the blog. That rapidly fell apart because I would go back and make changes, thus meaning there were several posts that didn't actually add any story.
However, if I were to say, make a publicly view able Google Doc, you guys could watch me write in real time. Which you'd totally want to do because I just might randomly bust out ASCII porn. I might, in addition, try to set up an IRC server to allow for chat about the novel I'm writing.
I won't lie, I stole the idea from the naked novel project, but this gives everyone involved more flexibility. You can read my rough draft, I don't feel retarded re-posting parts after edits. Plus, once you see my crazy-as-balls novel idea (when I told my roommate my concept, his first reply was, "You were wasted when you came up with this, weren't you?"), I'm sure you guys won't mind missing out on the usual twice a week rantings about technology... when I actually remember to post that is.
However, setting up an IRC server may turn out to be a pain (the dorm firewall and I don't get along), so novel chat may get axed. But I'll see you guys Novemeber first, with a shiny perma-link to a Google document, that will contain the rough draft of Foxtrot (title subject to change).
