I'm sorry. You were going to ask me to choose, right? Did you want to finish?

Jon B. We share a host. Apache is working fine for me at the moment. I gather the upgrade will be available indefinitely, so at the moment my plan is to let the pioneers take the arrows. I would actually be interested to hear the answer, but even if LiteSpeed itself is great, I would rather not take part in the initial migration when I can do it after they've had a little practice with this particular transfer.

so at the moment my plan is to let the pioneers take the arrows.
That was my feeling as well.

Lurching from one disaster to the next.
Hmm, they haven't asked me yet, and I have two different accounts. :(

Speaking of sound. I'm looking for a nice loop of music to open my blog-audio and podcasts.
Any ideas for places to look? I want something relatively simple, maybe with a little bounce and NONE of that midi-synth feel.

Ann, that's a ferret.
bonny, you might want to check out an old Big Band tune called "Jersey Bounce." Benny Goodman did a great version, though it might be too bouncy.

Help!
I downloaded Thunderbird for the Mac, and am finding some problems. Mainly, each time I open it it shows all the messages in the newsgroups as unread, even though I either marked them as read, or read them. Also, when I click on the icon to start it I get the "do you want to open this program" message each time. What is going on here?

All is well that ends in pizza.
Sheryl, did you copy thunderbird from the .dmg file to your applications folder, or are you running it from the mounted "disk"?

I've got a giddy, Audacity question for the sound mavens.
I'm having so much fun with this tool...thanks for the rec Steph! I've removed great gobs of a 2:55 audioblog entry, thus, making myself sound a bit less dorky. Magic!
My question is this: I made the recording using audioacrobat, over the phone. I cut out some of the ssssing using a silk scarf over the handset and then removed much more through sound reduction in Audacity. So proud.
Still. It sounds very much like I did it over the phone. Yes, eventually, I will get a decent headset microphone, but since I want to do interview podcasts, it seemed best to use a tool that makes it easy on guests who don't have microphones.
Anyway. In all the magic tools, is there a way to make the recording sound less phoneish? I tried equalization, but that didn't seem to work.

omnis, pursue. That's an order from a shy woman who can use M-16. - Shir
to the best of my knowledge, you can't add frequencies that aren't there.
