Pictures can now be seen at http://www.thebensmith.com/pictures. The old site will disappear in a few months. I'm a little bummed that the old site will go dark. It was my first URL. Guess that's progress. http://www.thebensmith.com/?p=14 This is just a test of the Wordpress app. I know it looks like I'm on the jungle but I'm not... http://www.thebensmith.com/?p=13 So I'm at the laundramat right now and I'm hammering out a blog entry.

Typing ... http://www.thebensmith.com/?p=11 Just got a note from "my friends at Netflix" letting me know that they will be keeping profiles around.  The FAQ at Netflix hasn't been updated yet, but I'm sure that it will be shortly.
