My “Nerd Score”
I finally remembered where I ran across this funny little
jewel.
Fanfiction Reviews, Interesting Links, and General Geekery

Type: Crossover
Length: Really long one-shot
Well, I decided to add at least one more review to the blog before merging them into my main site. I should warn any potential readers that, while it is good, it is script-form fanfiction.
The story basically follows the premise “What if the Daria cast were rushed into Hogwarts, skipping enough years to catch up with the HP cast?” I have never seen Daria myself, but this fanfic has made me seriously consider it. (I prefer things which can be read at high speed like Fanfiction, Manga, Novels, and the like.) For the record, I found it through the comment boards on the Anime Addventure.
Ok, since posts have been a little sporadic lately, I think anyone who reads this deserves a proper explanation. Here you go.
I’ve been very busy lately so I’ve spent most of my time working on reducing wasted time. (mostly by switching to more efficient content management tools) As a side-effect, I can’t blog as much as I’d like (since blogging is my excuse for spending free time on non-productive activities like reading fanfiction, webcomics, etc.) However, I have done my best to keep the interesting stuff coming. As such, any interesting sites I want to share will be available through my del.icio.us bookmarks (recently created) so I can combine saving them and sharing them into a single action.
Well, my site had to be taken down for a few hours due to some kind of script mess-up. I think I’ve solved the main problem but there are a few other cases where things can be difficult. I’m working on solving them and the site should hopefully be back to normal (and faster) within the next day or so.
I was wandering through del.icio.us when I found this article. I highly recommend you share it.
