One of the things I really want to do more of in 2008 is play more golf.  It’s felt like Spring in the Pacific Northwest the past few days, with temperatures soaring into the 60’s. Driving around Bellevue and Seattle I’ve noticed multiple courses with numerous groups out enjoying the weather. 
I suppose the other […]

What I think: I’ll be honest, I was looking for an Italian wine I hadn’t had much […]

I’ve never been big into custom wallpaper/desktop pictures on my computer, mainly because I’ve never found a really good repository of them. Today, via a random Google search though, I came across Interface Lift’s great wallpaper section.
Holy crap there’s a lot of good stuff in there. All super high-resolution. All unwatermarked. Sunset Beach […]

I’ve completely had it with craptastic Comcast. Their so-called DVR is the worst allegedly customer-ready product I’ve ever used in my life. It goes out to lunch more than a couple of spoiled BFFs and its handling of queued up remote control commands is about as predictable as the Soup Nazi.

Comcast’s one and only saving grace, at least in my local market, was their propensity for patching in HD feeds of prominent sporting events on the Mojo channel, but tonight, halfway through my HD recording of the Wake Forest/UNC game, the feed dropped, the screen went pitch black, and I got to listen to (not see) the dialog from some lame, old fashioned movie.

Thanks, Comcast! Oh, how I loathe thee.

Today is a pretty big day. To be totally honest, today is the reason I joined Adobe. Today is the release of Adobe AIR and Flex 3. The New York Times has a great article about what AIR enables and why it’s going to have an impact on the technology landscape. AIR is a product […]
