  1. I am full of SCIENCE this fine morning!
  2. hence my search for a web-capable tablet that isn't 1) uberly-expensive, 2) super-slow, and 3) is compatible w/the Safari book service.
  3. I really need to make better use of my O'Reilly Safari Books subscription. So much reading, so little time...
  4. #ebook manufacturers: large-format "Kindle DX"-ish tablet, *thin*, with good battery life and *GREAT* PDF support. In Canada. PLEASE.
  5. Solution to Hulu's proxy blocking - just get yourself a virtual server in the US & set up a VPN (*not* a proxy). Problem solved.
  6. Hrm. After watching video of the #crunchpad in operation, I'm reconsidering. Flash was SLOW. Expected to hear the Bionic sound effect...
  7. Given that it's Canada Day, this shirt seems somehow appropriate ... and makes me giggle: http://is.gd/1kUGT
  8. @WarrenG1983 The responses were: "Alberta", "Montreal", and "Quebec". Ow. My inner Torontonian is slightly offended that nobody guessed TO.
  9. @WarrenG1983 re: test - watched 3 mins of "Trivial Pursuit" TV show on Monday. The host asked: "What is the capital of Canada?"
  10. Happy Canada Day folks! (to my US followers: Canada Day occurs on July 1, and is somewhat similar to your July 4th celebrations)
  11. @vonP That's good to hear! Looking forward to living up there - heard a rumour that you can get net access thru SFU instead of Shaw. True?
  12. Ohhh! Apple just sent me an iPhone 3.1 beta notice. Hrm. Should I install it on my iPhone? Mmmm... beta!
  13. Just got the keys to our new apartment @ SFU UniverCity. Excited about the amenities (cheap transit, access to SFU's library & athletics...)
  14. This resurgence of web-tablets reminds me of when I worked for Espial (Ottawa) - my job was to build tablets - test units only though. :)
  15. Mmmm. Tablet computing. Should I buy a Viliv X70, wait for the Crunchpad - http://is.gd/1jq3U - or wait longer for Apple's rumoured tablet?
  16. @briango when you saw MJ in Ottawa, were you on 'Elvis Lives Lane' by any chance? ;)
  17. Corus radio app for iPhone/iPod is awesome. Listened to CFNY in Toronto while hiking in Vancouver today.
  18. I love that I live within walking distance to the beach & ocean - although moving a bit further away in July. http://twitpic.com/8p2z8
  19. Power is out in Port Moody. Twittering via candlelight & iPhone. :)
  20. @richcruz re: VNC w/810 - I do that all the time. I think you misread my tweet -I was telling someone else 'bout it :) thanks though.
