  1. This is a bit of fun. A map of the US with wind overlay... hint.fm/wind/
  2. I've decided to stop putting sugar in my coffee... Bleh, I hope I can get used to the taste.
  3. The post-quade era begins... A new hope.
  4. Watching the legend of Tebow grow as he mounts an amazing comeback once again… oh wait, no I'm not, he's getting erased by the Lions D.
  5. I was counting my chickens before they hatched... Then I decided to have an omlet.
  6. Jakob Neilsen equates ecommerce to mail order. I disagree, it's much more than mo. Did Poor Usability Kill E-Commerce? ow.ly/1zm9fJ
  7. Downloaded hootsuite... Very nice app for social networking. Still missing google+
  8. Smashed my thumb with the hammer... Ooooooowwwwwwuuugh #%^#*!!... You could say I really nailed it.
  9. Finally iOS 5'd up... Getting synced with the iCloud. Getting geeked out giddiness.
  10. @ebacon cyberduck... Free if you decline to pay for the shareware fee. There is a nag screen which you can turn off. Excellent FTP app.
  11. Have not upgraded to iOS5 yet… Had to download a crap-ton of updates for the laptop. I'll be glad that won't be needed anymore after iOS5.
  12. Trying out an app to simul-post to FB and the twitters. Wish it had g+ also.
  13. @jmspool ah, the helpful instructions that need instructions… "Put your shoes and socks on. But not in that order." always great fun.
  14. I whistle and chirp along with the birds on my early morning walk to the train station.
  15. My answer on @Quora to: How do you prevent scope creep in agile projects when usability testing? http://qr.ae/7rcB3
  16. So it is essentially impossible to get a sim for iPad usage while in Japan. You can rent one for a ridiculous cost ~$60 for 3 days... ugh!
  17. Things I love about Japan: Mmmm, Suntory Malts beer
  18. Finally on the google+ ... now I just need to wait for my friends and acqaintances to be able to get in. Then we'll have a rockin time.
  19. Went to SushiStation for dinner... very stuffed and full! Love the salmon nigiri.
