Steel White Table In 2005
Here are some highlights and statistics from Steel White Table I know you’re all dying to know about. All of the numbers are just for 2005.
Phillip’s posts: 137
Jody’s posts: 366
Total posts: 503
Stuff Of Note:
- A reference (click Next Page or the right arrow to go to the “C”s to see “Cairns, Phillip”) to Phillip’s Podcasting on a Budget page was published in Syndicating Web Sites with RSS Feeds For Dummies.
- I received my first Google AdSense cheque, taking about 13 months to generate $100 in revenue.
- Mud Radio came and went; Phillip’s experiment in radio broadcasting over the internet. It had some great moments. I’m helping him to start it up again.
- The site’s URL changed from cairns.servehttp.com/jody to steelwhitetable.org/jody to steelwhitetable.org/blog.
Popular posts (based on our subjective judgements and some statistical analysis):
- Pissing In A Straight Line. This post made public something every man experiences. The response was unexpected.
- The Final Reason to Give Up on Going to the Movies. J-Walk posted about this (and about a dozen others). I think Phillip’s still going to the movies.
- Phillip started his Sunday Morning Scoff video series with How to Cook Toutons, which opened a debate about the word “Newfie”, to Phillip’s chagrin.
That’s it. Out of the 503 posts in 2005, three were interesting.

What to expect of SWT in 2006? More of the same useless crap.
Happy New year
Something else to expect in 2006 … Jim is going to reply to your email and the programming (I believe) you did. I’m forcing myself back in the programming saddle. The application we corresponded about and (I believe) you put together is still one of the most sought-after requests I get. I’ll be buried in my end for weeks but once I put up a beta version, we’ll hook up.
I keep saying ‘I believe’ because I’m an email skimmer … skim ‘em when they come in, then put ‘em in a TO REPLY TO folder, then get back to them someday. I just wanted you to know I truly appreciate your programming efforts and fully expect to use them. Thanks!
> one of the most sought-after requests I get
Lord liftin’, I’m worried now: it’s ONLY a Windows application; I’m still mulling over certain functions (have it search within files, too, in addition to webpages, so you specify URL OR file folder to search); have it smack the user across the face when something is found?
I haven’t been in programming mode for a month now. Time to get back at ‘er…
Oh sure, I have 250 posts but you won’t list that one….geesh.
You disappeared in 2005. Top commentor in 2006 gets a prize!
I’ll be sure to spam your website with my unsight.
Mud Radio is coming back? Yay!
(Oh, and Happy New Year, y’all!)
Mud Radio will come back if I can think of something intelligent and interesting to do with a webcast. (Which means there’s a very slim chance it’ll come back.)
Mud Radio is up at the moment, playing all the same crap I used to play. Working out some technical kinks here. I don’t have the link, but just got to shoutcast.com and search for “Mud Radio,” then lick the tune-in button. If you’re truly desperate. Playing all non-RIAA stuff.

OMG you bastard, I just realized I was omitted from having my one post talked about on here!

I’m proud of it! :/
I forgot that. I deleted you from my system, so your name doesn’t show up as an author, oh nameless one.
Man Pender, you must have really pissed Jody off. It’s the moving to Halifax that did it.
I deleted his access to the system long ago. I didn’t think it’d delete his name from the post.
is pender voldemort?
Some people just don’t appreciate groundhogs.
