After several failed attempts by myself and Joe, I’ve got Jabber(d) working on the server. It’ll always be on, unlike chat.bellmor.com (which I ran out of my dorm). Best of all, firstname@lastname.com is now my Jabber ID. Tomorrow after class I’ll look into setting up transports (talk to AIM, MSN, etc with my Jabber ID). Update your buddy lists

So we left the house a bit after 6 to head up to the Mall of Georgia to see the 10PM Superman Returns showing at the Imax theatre (in 3D for 20 minutes as well). It was quite an experience to see it in Imax. The 3D scenes were pretty good too, although from time to time it felt awkward with my glasses on and the 3D glasses in front of them. The movie was great, the acting was really good and Kevin Spacey made an excellent Lex Luthor. Talk about a one night stand…

Bottom line: data mining doesn’t work when you’re looking for a needle in an incredibly large haystack. But hey, it’s great for spying on reporters.
