8 habits / facts

Jason decided to tag me “list eight habits or facts about yourself, then tag eight more people.” I walk to work every day. I also usually walk somewhere for lunch as well for probably a total of 2 miles spent walking per day just to get to work, get lunch, and go home (I’m proud [...]

Comments Off

Well, I didn’t come to the decision easily, but this morning, I read an article about turning off comments over at Joel on Software.  Shortly after that, 3 or 4 spam comments made it through my spam filtering.  Honestly, I’m just tired of having to fight spam at all. It’s pretty rare that one makes [...]

Main Street Station

I went out and took some pictures of Main Street Station tonight, thought I’d share them:

More on Apple & the iPhone

Just wanted to comment on two blog posts/articles I just read. The first is from All Things Digital and can be found here. Basically the article is a somewhat condemning look at the iPhone. He comments a lot about traveling with the iPhone internationally and also about the keyboard, etc. Some of the stuff he [...]

More feed wonkiness

I’m moving forward some with my previously mentioned feed updates.  So if you’re a subscriber you might get blasted with all of the items in my feed suddenly being unread.  I apologize, but this is more in the direction that I was wanting to go, and gives me more power.  Basically I moved over to [...]

Some further thoughts on the iPhone

This is a continuation of my review of the iPhone from earlier. I was able to get an adapter to let my iPhone work with my current FM Transmitter setup in my car. It cost me $10. On the way home from the store I plugged it in and started playing music and it’s just [...]
