It’s the end of another week and I thought I’d leave everyone with something to play around with over the weekend. That is assuming you end up spending some time at the computer on the off days like I tend to do. About a week ago I came across a site offering an alpha version of a web operating system called YouOS and it looks pretty impressive.

The Passing
My stepfather Irving passed away on Monday night February 6th shortly after 7:30 PM. Before I get back to my usual posting I wanted to say a few words about Irv’s life and death.
Temporary Absence
I may be absent from this blog for a few days. My stepfather has taken ill and is in the hospital and I have flown to New York to visit with him and my family for a few days.
As soon as I am back in Colorado which I think will be sometime later in the week I’ll get back to my normal routine and begin posting again.
A Chain Of Links
When you get down to it the web is one long chain of links and you never know how or when you’ll come across a useful site or how someone out there may find you.
The Business Behind The Domain
Edit: As with the previous post this post references the yellowhousehosting.com domain, which I am no longer using for this blog.
This business is named after a Van Gogh painting. You may or may not know the painting “The Yellow House” which for a time was Vincent’s home. When Van Gogh moved into his yellow house he envisioned it as more than the place where he would dwell while he painted the countryside in the south of France. He saw it as a place where fellow artists would come to learn, to share, and to paint. He saw his yellow house as a home for artists where they could feel part of a community.
