Running apps

2009-04-25T16:42:57Z

Just a short update here (that doesn't exactly fit into a twitter post). With the weather turning better (and our trip quickly approaching), I've begun to run once again. As silly as it is, one of the reasons I'd been hesitant was because I couldn...

Internet Impermanence

2009-03-26T22:45:47Z

In one thousand years, how will we be studied? How will the future even know we were here when our cheaply-constructed buildings will long be dust and our intellectual property scattered ones and zeroes in the wind? A bit dramatic, yes, but it's...

Netflix's evolution

2009-03-22T18:07:24Z

I wrote this in early February, saved it without publishing it, and then forgot about it (for whatever reason). Most of it is valid, though, and I still have a lot of passion about this subject. Will give an update later on. Cable companies and ...

Is this thing on?

2009-01-28T17:55:06Z

No one seems to post here anymore. Does that mean no one reads it anymore? I'm curious and in a self-involved mood, so post a quick reply (doesn't need to be substantive) if you even see this. I keep meaning to get back to blogging, but maybe this...

Technology knows I'm getting old

2008-09-13T20:34:37Z

It certainly seems that as I distance myself from my early 20s, technology has decided to go and make it hard on me. It's made me reconsider the reasons why our older generations don't quite understand e-mail and the internet. Maybe my dad doesn't...

Television: Almost A La Carte, a retraction

2008-09-10T02:34:21Z

Apple events always prompt my lazy self to post, even disappointingly boring ones like today's "Let's Rock" announcement. If you missed it, new iPod nanos that are a throw-back to the old iPod nanos, new iPod touches that still don't make the thin...

Man on Wire review

2008-08-24T03:39:30Z

Phillippe Petit had a dream; one that he couldn't even realize when he first conceived of it. He wanted to walk from the top of one building of the World Trade Center to the other... on a tight rope. Magnolia Picture's Man on Wire follows the real...

Black Screen of Death

2008-08-20T18:41:29Z

My MacBook Pro is in the shop again. Same symptoms: it turns on like normal--chimes, keyboard lights up, everything--except there's no signal to the monitor. Or any monitor, for that matter (I have an external here at work, and the Apple "genius" ...

Who needs wisdom when you've got laughing gas?

2008-07-25T22:25:37Z

Had my wisdom teeth pulled this afternoon. Did you know that there's a small but real chance that you could lose feeling in your lower job, forever? That had me a bit freaked out at first. Until I got pumped full of laughing gas. Then, I really di...

Generic Blog Entry

2008-07-23T13:38:36Z

I have this dream-fantasy about living in a house somewhere with a lot of greenery, tucked away in the country-side. Ivy is involved. Maybe moss. It's sometimes part British Lake District, part rural Japan, part Pacific Northwest. I long time ago,...
