-21 Degrees →

Driving down the highway on a cold night, the temperature, -21 degrees Fahrenheit. All of a sudden my radio cuts out. “Did I fuck up my iPhone during that last jailbreak?” I check my phone, it is running fine.

New Site Design →

So I finally redesigned my site. Still have some work to do, but was tired of the old design.

I stripped out all of my social web presence, though it will be back at a later time, I just want to make...

Twitter + Second Life = Spontaneous Web Meetspace →

Last Saturday night I noticed that Australia’s answer to Robert Scoble (in a good way) Microsoft’s Nick Hodge was in Second Life chatting to The Podcast Network’s Cameron Reilly via Twitter. I jumped into Second Life to join...
