Hey guys! I’m back from my hiatus of trudging the road to nowhere… busting my ass in worthless classes with jaded professors (well, there was only one – the others were great), and working hard. Too hard; I’d rather sit back and do nothing most of the time, but I don’t. I hit the snooze [...]
We’re still doing the interview with Felony Franks, or more specifically Jim Andrews – the owner. That’s actually not what this micro-post is about though; I wanted to bring a news story to your attention if you haven’t already seen it. Jim Andrews wife contacted me today in reply to an email I sent her stating that the news story I was waiting on had finally broke and it made the first page of the Wall Street Journal! You should check out the article if you get a chance at…
Could it end the still infant sharepoint era? I guess it depends on how much trust people have in the cloud. I have quite a bit – arguably too much trust in it as is reflected by my overuse of it. It is ironic though, that in a frenzy to get into the Google Wave [...]
The founder of Ubuntu Linux, Mark Shuttleworth reportedly said that “linux is hard to explain to girls.” It’s fairly obvious why this set women off in the software world, and that’s what this post is all about. I’d like to hear some other opinions on it though.

This was at the end of a previous post, but I thought it deserved its own spot, so here it is. So many people give me a blank stare when I go off the deep end about how much of a rip off text messages are. They wonder why I am such an angry person, [...]
Last week I booted up OSX and fired up Safari. I was brought to Apple.com, the default homepage which I haven’t yet changed. I noticed up in the top left hand corner of the page that Apple was announcing that they had responded to the FCC and published the letter on their homepage. I don’t [...]
I just noticed today that Snow Leopard’s default icon for PC’s on an SMB network is that of an older looking white CRT monitor with a blue screen of death on it. It was rather subtle so it took me a minute to actually notice. It’s funny how Apple and Microsoft just can’t get along. [...]
Amazon’s Kindle was the source of misery for many owners last month when they dropped the ball by deleting Orwell’s 1984 off the device due to a copyright issue on behalf of one of their suppliers. A few weeks ago, I was just kicking back with Samantha and Billy shooting some Qik Video’s when this [...]
