I’ve been thinking about getting an online service to backup my computer for a while now, however most services made the plans confusing, didn’t have a Mac client, or had price levels that just made it more than I wanted to spend. However, I signed up for Backblaze and it’s been wonderful ever since. I […]
I’ve been waiting and waiting for the Apple App Store. One of the items I really wanted was a checklist so I could keep track of things I needed at the store and tasks to be done, all without being connected to the internet. Now I have that in Todo. Todo is a $10 application […]
I was excited to see iTunes 7.7 this morning and then TUAW tipped us off as to how to get into the App Store. Excited to check it out, I found a few free applications and downloaded them. Nothing to exciting but the Remote application does let me control iTunes or Apple TV (if I […]

Last night (March 19th) we enjoyed Daughtry and Bon Jovi in concert at the Xcel Energy Center in St. Paul, MN. Granted our seats weren’t that close, and digital zoom isn’t the best, but I was pretty happy with my pictures. View them all. And the concert ROCKED! Daughtry is awesome and Bon Jovi sings […]
I’ve finally got Ubuntu (7.10) up and running. I tried, and failed, to get it running under Paralles a while back and finally took the time to try again. This time on a Windows machine that had some extra space. Overall the install was great, but once up and running there are a lot of […]
I was excited about Mozilla’s Prism application when it first arrived on the scene. But then Fluid came out and I realized how un-polished Prism was. However, Prism 0.9 is quite a large step forward. What’s new in Prism 0.9? The big thing is that it’s based off of Firefox 3. It’s got the […]
