Late Night Links

Couple of awesome little titbits before I hit the hay. Warren Ellis, to my mind one of the ten greatest writers to pen a comic, has lent his blessing to an unsolicited upload of one episode of his best loved series, ‘Transmetropolitan‘. If you’ve never tasted the goodness that is Spider Jerusalem’s laying open the guts of the world to sniff the entrails (to mix a metaphor to horrific effect), then I guarantee you are missing out. Check out the scans here.

I’ve integrated the flawed but brilliant Gabbley into dbspin.com. Gabbley is a client which allows you to add real time chat to any website, simple by surfing to http://gabbly.com/yoururl.com, using any supported browser (Opera and older versions of Firefox and IE are currently out). At the moment Gabbley suffers from a number of drawbacks, for example no user accounts, but remains a fun and easy way to quickly add a live element to any site. For aesthetic reasons I’ve integrated it into a page, and you can get there by following the Live Chat link on the right of this site. I’ll try to keep a tab open any time I’m online and free to chat. One warning though, there’s no way to be certain you’re talking to me, so use your head!

Update: I’ve removed Gabbley support from this site. Nothing against the service, I’ve just decided real time chat blog integration isn’t for me.
