READIN started out as a place for me to keep track of what I am reading, and to learn (slowly, slowly) how to design a web site.

There has been some mission drift here and there, but in general that's still what it is. Some of the main things I write about here are reading books, listening to (and playing) music, and watching the movies. Also I write about the work I do with my hands and with my head; and of course about bringing up Sylvia.

The site is a bit of a work in progress. New features will come on-line now and then; and you will occasionally get error messages in place of the blog, for the forseeable future. Cut me some slack, I'm just doing it for fun! And if you see an error message you think I should know about, please drop me a line. READIN source code is PHP and CSS, and available on request, in case you want to see how it works.

See my reading list for what I'm interested in this year.

READIN has been visited approximately 236,737 times since October, 2007.

Tonight we're watching Independent Lens' Chicago 10, a dramatization of the 1968 Democratic convention and the Chicago 7 trial. It's very well done, I recommend watching it -- Channel 13 is airing it again tomorrow night.

What's of interest:

➪	David Hahn describes the process of translating: the first draft.
➪	Vance writes about the photography of Charles Van Schaik, and links to an archive of his pictures of “poverty, failure, vandalism, arson, domestic violence, disease, depression, alcoholism, insanity, suicide, and murder” in rural Wisconsin. In comments, Michael Lesy links his essay on "Visual Literacy".
➪	Rogan Ferguson of The Great Whatsit has been creating panoramas. Nice! I especially like his Rts. 110 and 105 interchange and his Watts Towers.
