I'm used to friends sending me adorableness of those who'll forget I existed if I don't find a way to see them soon, but less used to random people tracking me down. It's oddly cool, if a little overwhelming sometimes as it scales up in number. Appreciated, just been dealing with stuff I don't talk about out on here and sipping the grid rather than gulping. It's helped that it's been an incredibly remarkably boring time when it comes to the Mac and technology in general...
I have a few more things I've set to get off my plate before I can really context switch mentally, but the comments in the last post were reaching a strange climax, I can't login to IM before 3am without getting poked somehow, and every person I encounter seemed surprised I'm breathing.
Worth a note, and since I've broken the self-imposed embargo already with this post, if the shakes have started to really take hold, you can roll up your sleeve and take the edge off with a few answers I sent off last week regarding Mail.app to Hawk Wings but forgot to post them, or rather being a little site I've never heard of and mentioning Brent Simmons will only allow me to break the embargo so much. I'm always wigged by how a week later I'll be outside pacing with a smoke and coffee mulling over something unrelated and my brain will go, "Wait, you forgot to mention SpamSieve as a plugin you dig back in..."

Subject: Quicksilver/Blacktree website is downHey DB,
Recently I noticed that the Quicksilver/Blacktree sites are down. I've been looking around for some info about this, and since you are the only Macelebrity ;-) that is reachable (sort of) I was wondering if you knew anything about this.
Thanks!
Pepe

Subject: Quicksilver's Gone!The Blacktree website is down and Quicksilver is reporting an error when trying to update. It seems to have disappeared.
I was wondering since your tight with the dev, you could let us know what's happening.
Cheers.
When it hit three, and he'd been offline for awhile and it was going into its second day, I picked up the phone...
