The Bicycle Builders (and I added Facebook Comments to the blog)

    Newer Older

    In reverse order of the titles, some of you might notice that I have added Facebook Comments over at my blog at www.stuckincustoms.com/2009/02/23/the-bicycle-builders-an..., so now you can leave comments with the old style or the new style. I left both systems in place since there are so many good previous comments, and they are not really convertible. The New Facebook comments are pretty cool because they re-use your Facebook info, and it extends that community and network of friends, since all these networks come together nowadays. It took a tiny bit of coding to set myself up as a Facebook Developer, but it wasn't so tough (I knew that major in Computer Science would come in handy some day!).

    There is a very nice community of people that come here to the site! You all are very nice and helpful... you give excellent comments, help one another out, give me advice, and drop all kinds of cool info bombs on the crowd. Thanks for that! I hope this Facebook comment thing can help more people to join the fun.

    Anyway, to the photo for the day. This is not the usual, but it was such a cool slice of life, I could not pass it up! I was walking through the streets of Malacca in southern Malaysia, and building after building have all sorts of industry spilling out of them. Many of them are just deep garages where people have holed up to perfect one craft or another. This one was full of thousands of little bicycle parts. I stood out front for a while, watching all of them slowly convert the metallic entropy into bicycles...
