This is a joke.

This is the finder for ALL issues of the View from Chaos manor from its inception to October 30, 2005. The regular VIEW "Home Page" is here.

Search: type in string and press return.

Think of VIEW as my column on the installment plan, but there are major differences; here you see what happens as it happened. That has some disadvantages: it's not as smooth as the column. There is little rewriting. It's a day book. This is the View "home page"; there is generally a new View each week, which ought to be sufficient hint for interpreting what those numbers down below are.

Many of the best discussions end up as Reports. See the Reports page for summaries. If you got here through an external link, you might want to look at the index page. Note that VIEW is personal, and isn't part of BYTE, and BYTE gets exclusives on the columns themselves.

IF YOU SEND MAIL it may be published; if you want it private SAY SO AT THE TOP of the mail. I try to respect confidences, but there is only me, and this is Chaos Manor. For more about mail and mail formats, see the instructions.

The default font is Georgia, and I advise you to set your browser to that. It looks ever so much better than Times New Roman on screen.

View began in June, 1998, and in general there is one page per week. For an index of the previous view pages, see VIEWDEX. For an attempt to keep track of this whole site, see  the New Order page, which tries to make order of chaos. These will be useful. For the rest, see What is this place? for some details on where you have got to.

A message from our sponsors:

If you want to PAY FOR THIS  I keep the latest HERE. I'm trying. MY THANKS to all of you who sent money.  Some of you went to a lot of trouble to send money from overseas. Thank you! There are also some new payment methods. You can now pay by credit card. I am preparing a special (electronic) mailing to all those who paid: there will be a couple of these. I am also toying with the notion of a subscriber section of the page. LET ME KNOW your thoughts

If you didn't and haven't, why not?  It's easy to subscribe by mail or by credit card. Click here. If this seems a lot about paying think of it as the Subscription Drive Nag. You'll see more.

More Boiler Plate:

This is a day book. It's not all that well edited. The regular COMPUTING AT CHAOS MANOR column, 7,500 words, appears monthly, but not here: you get that at BYTE.COM

I try to keep this up daily, but sometimes I can't. I'll keep trying.

For the best attempt at an INDEX of this stuff, see ORDER. I will sometimes put links to new issues here. Mostly go see the view page...

 Death Valley Days: Adventures in Death Valley

For a better picture of what happens here, try the TOUR GUIDE.  That isn't updated as often as it ought to be, but it does provide some hints on this adventure game.
