Showing the folks in the store the goodness of the blog…

Lesson learned today: it’s wilwheaton.NET not .ORG!!!

***update***

As I was giving my pro web design workshop on blogs and blogging, I mention Wil Wheaton’s blog and how it made both Wil Wheaton and blogging popular by getting to read a rather personal journal of someone who’s somewhat famous…and someone who comments on being famous, ex-child star, etc. etc.

First I load www.wilwheaton.com and then realize, oh yeah it’s not a “.com”…it’s a .org. So then I load www.wilwheaton.org(**WARNING**could be graphic or malicious) in front of my whole audience and load a picture of a man bent over with a OBGYN tool lodged in his bung hole. Thankfully I was quick on the trigger although I did cause emotional distress to a few of the women in the audience. I did not falter though - carried on like nothing terrible happened, tieing it in to my earlier part of the discussion - why trust is a part of good usability and design…

So yeah, it’s www.wilwheaton.NET

I was just listening to Faithless - Sunday 8pm
