Loss
I discovered today that my content database is missing about 20 entries from the first weeks of 2005. The feeling of loss is pretty thick, but I get these feelings pretty easily — hey, don’t pick on me.
Of the 21 stories, I can only remember the content of one of them. I think the story was titled “Web Apps Rocked 2004″ or something like that and was basically all about the goodness of XMLHTTPRequest. I’ve put that technology to use in a simple demo called LOLA Suggest, where LOLA is the name of our web OPAC.
But back to those feelings of loss….
I think the problem occurred when things went awry at my hosting provider. I suspect their backups backups were incomplete, but what do I know. My backups are shamefully incomplete, so I share part of the blame. Anyway, the only thing to do about loss is get used to it.
Darn.

I’m going to remind you of that feeling of loss. I was just going to link my syllabus to your Web Apps Rocked 2004 article. But, alas, it isn’t there… suck.
