What Has Blogging Given Me?

A while ago, Just Shattuck posted a topic about what blogging has given him. At the end, he poked me to do the same. Even though I’m a bit slow, I’m still going to respond. 🙂 Blogging has given me quite a bit. It gives me the chance to get my voice heard. Some of […]

Still No Nintendo Wii For Us

We struck out once again when trying to get a Nintendo Wii. We heard Target was getting a shipment today, Sunday, so we got up at 5am and got to Target by 6. Already there were over 30 people in line and some had been there since midnight. At 7 they handed out tickets, however […]

See for yourself: // Image lost. Sorry. Zooomr ate it. Comment if you want me to dig them back up. // This makeover is curtsy of the […]

Free Shareware Mac Apps Catch

When I first wrote about MacAppADay, I wondered what the catch was. It didn’t take long to figure it out, however I still think it’s a brilliant idea. So what’s the catch? Temporary licenses. The applications are free and you are free to use them, with all features, as long as you don’t upgrade. Some […]

Midwest Tour Included Thai and Greek Food

One good thing, or bad depending on how it turns out, is that when I go to conferences, I’ll go pretty much anywhere the group goes. Get a bunch of different and you never know where you’ll end up. While at SES in Chicago I found myself at two restaurants I wouldn’t normally try. The […]
