Yup. I just keep generating fountains of useful things. I have 15 Jaiku invites, and 5 Evernote invites. I recommend both, although right now I use more of twitter until I can convince people to move over to Jaiku cause it’s more stable. And evernote is awesome. And, as before – leave me a comment [...]
Ivan Krstić just posted an entry named “Sic Transit Gloria Laptopi“. Without commenting on the problems of the OLPC project, which – for some time – has seemed to be rapidly pushing itself into oblivion – I completely agree on Ivan’s points on open source and frankly, everything else he says. It’s saddening that the [...]
Just a quick note – I’ve got 10 Evernote invites – if you don’t know what Evernote is, check out the Ars review here. Post in the comments if you’d like to test drive it. I’m going to need an email address. So far, I’m loving it – but I’m also someone with about 500+ [...]
Took a break from yardwork to cut over to feed burner so I can track some stats on the rss feed – let me know if anything breaks.

I love making up words. A recent post on the pycon blog has me rethinking using Twitter or Jaiku for “micro blogging” (especially during a con). I’ve personally not used either one of them, but my preference would be to try out the now-not-accepting-new-users Jaiku. How many people out there in the #pythonweb are using [...]
Via Engadget: Microsoft just announced what has been rumored forever: a formal offer for Yahoo. Microsoft’s proposal to Yahoo’s board of directors represents $31 per share (a 62% premium over yesterday’s closing price) or about $44.6 Billion. Steve Ballmer, CEO and big fan of developers, says, “We have great respect for Yahoo!, and together we [...]
I’ve mentioned this before – on Jan 4th, I ended up closing on my first house. The primary driving force of course being my now nearly seven month old daughter, the secondary driving force is well – owning a house. Both my wife and I were excited, ecstatic even. I mean, it’s not a palatial [...]
Ivan, of OLPC fame, made a post a few days ago about some issues he took with a post by Bruce Perens beleaguering some of the recent OLPC/Microsoft press. It’s interesting for a few reasons – other than the back and forth between Ivan and Bruce, there’s a gem of a quote that rang very [...]
Man. 2008 is already going sideways, in a good way. In this case – I knew it was coming, which is a good thing. Last Friday, I spent a chunk of time signing more paperwork than I’ve ever had to in my life, but walked away with the keys to my very own home. Other [...]
