I used to spend a lot of time at used bookstores when I was a kid in the 70′s. My mom loved to read, and passed that on to the rest of the family. It’s so funny that these places are, for the most part, a lost relic. There’s a unique smell in a used bookstore as the slowly...
Fun Saturday
In a rare turn of events there is nothing planned this weekend. I’m playing around with a bunch of side projects and catching up with Galactica. Carin and I saw Little Miss Sunshine last night and she was laughing so hard she couldn’t breathe. I hope your weekend is as relaxing as m

I’ve been itching to upgrade my phone, I have a Treo 600 and there’s so much more cool stuff if I were to go to the 700. The problem is that I have been thinking all week about something I read from the Dalai Lama (who has a rockin’ website by the way, but no RSS or podcasts...

This morning I read Chris Baggott was asking whether video is deserving of the attention it’s getting. I think the short answer is no. I’ve always been impressed with Gartner’s Hype Cycle which is a nice model for explaining some of this (and predicted the bursting of the...

Michael Seaton of The Client Side Podcast, and ScotiaBank sent off some questions about email to a group I’m in and I thought that they were interesting enough to share with everyone (along with my answers, of course). Just to set the stage, this year is my 10th anniversary of email...
