It’s In The Trees! It’s Coming! Oh goodie.

This could certainly be interesting. Stats on where people are headed when they leave your blog. I’m wondering what the folks who are running this software are doing with all that traffic data… MyBlogLog

Kent just sent Duncan and I a wonderful idea for breakfast – a bacon cheeseburger served on a Krispy Kreme doughnut bun . The one that really disappointed me is further down in the article - the hamdog. I can’t believe there’s no pulled...

This is like a pocket blog app on steroids. Pocket Phojo 3.0 Launches at Focus on Imaging - PhotographyBLOG

Hey! Look everybody! Banned cartoons! Click, click, click… This one’s damn funny too… Dan Gillmor on Grassroots Journalism, Etc.: Tribune Kills Anti-Bush Cartoon

Oh, it’s truly a blissful morning. Three 1–hr meetings cancelled within 5 minutes. With my OPML file becoming dangerously Scoblized, it’s time for a haircut. First, save the old OPML file… Have I read the blog entries...

Having a hyper-active 4 yr old running the house limits the amount of time I can devote to good ol’ blood-n-guts movies… Luckily, I found the time to watch “ The Saw ” this weekend. Oh my, what a great brainf---. Great premise...

One of the kind folks over in MSPress just dropped off an advance copy of, “ Practical Guidelines and Best Practices for VB and C# Developers ”, and I’m having a great time reading it… I’d highly recommend at least a perusal...

Damn. Hunter S. Thompson killed himself with his own gun. Poor, poor bastard. I loved Fear & Loathing in Las Vegas. But that was written thirty years ago. F. Scott Fitzgerald (an author I loathe, incidentally) famously wrote, "There are no Second...

I have a new opportunity on my team for an editorial manager. If you're a great editor, and an even better advocate of the editorial role, and a superb people manager, give me a ring... Shawn Job Description – Editorial Manager, MOTO Come help a talented...

I’ve been through at least five hurricanes, including Hurricane Andrew. I’ve watched tornados tear lives apart. I always maintained control by focusing on the statistics – how fast the storms were tracking ,etc. Until this morning, I’ve...

A lot of us are now running both personal and corporate blogs. Stephen and I started discussing an idea to make this easier - server-side triggers that will post to another blog automatically. I can do this client-side right now - w.bloggar supports this...

Nothing clarifies the need for help managing the ol' inbox like being out of the country for a week. My inbox got pretty out of control last week, which drove me to search for some help. Don't get me wrong - Outlook is great, and has some interesting...

Skype really saved my hiney last week while I was in Copenhagen. It could always tunnel through whatever network I was hung off on, and the reception back to the States was pretty good. I'm absolutely sold. Now I want "SkypeIn". No, it doesn't exist yet...

The bag is pretty sub-par. Nothing compared to TechEd Europe's cool bike messenger bag. Lots of eval software in the bag - ISA Server 120-day eval (I bet day 121 is quite a shock!), Visio, a pretty cool Security Guidance Kit (I have no idea how to get...

Copenhagen - a great place to visit in the summer. Unfortunately, it's November. It's dark from 4pm to 7am. The shadows of stuff look *really* cool. I'm over here for the IT Forum - think TechEd without any developer-related content. The focus in on our...

Yeah, I do have Mac envy. So I had WindowBlinds, DesktopX, ObjectDock, all fired up and running happily away. Then I tried to open an IRM'ed (Microsoft-speak for DRM) email. Nada. Wouldn't open. I fired up OWA, and I could get the email to open. Weird...

It is so cool to see a real live rock star every now and then. I was headed to my last meeting of the evening, when a panicked Rory swung by, looking for an office to crash in. Luckily, I've got folks from my team slung out all over the green earth right...

Now I've done it... I upgraded a prefectly working MCE 2k3 machine to MCE 2k5 (discs from MSDN Subscribers Download), and now I'm horked. Well, kinda horked... I flattened/paved the box, and did a clean install. I updated my nVidia GeForce3 drivers to...

Updated now that I have one - see my review here . http://www.pcmag.com/article2/0,1759,1706540,00.asp Check out this beast. Two tuner cards. Why anyone would call this a "laptop" is beyond me. System weight = 9.5 lbs. Could be a fantastic desktop...

Who's going to help me convince the powers to have TechEd and/or the PDC in Tampa Bay this year so we can ride this thing? I mean hey - ther site's using asp.net, right??? http://www.buschgardens.com/buschgardens/fla/sheikra.aspx This spring, Busch Gardens...

I was put on hold by the fine folks at Qwest, as I try to get off the service-from-hell known as Vonage. While I was on hold, the song playing was the elevator/musak version of Peter Gabirel's "Solsbuty Hill". I cried. Time for my Geritol hits...

Quote of the day - “You won’t find reality in any specification.” – Sam Ruby. Keep handin’ out those red pills, Sam

This will prob be the most talked about session at the devcon. Whit Kemmey, from the DOD, is explaining how missile targeting systems are using XML. Really cool pictures of submarines. Whit designs the attack software (fire control management). Stuff...
