  3. @mightyohm Looks awesome. How many pounds(!) did you buy?
  4. A classic book for classic (read, old-school) engineering. Still one of my favorites. http://retwt.me/jUQq @tweetmeme
  5. iPhone MMS messaging is pretty cool. Photos show up as a square chat bubble.
  6. AT&T has informed me via SMS that MMS messaging is finally ready on the iPhone. Just a quick update through iTunes activates it.
  7. Will we someday register a "personal IP address" in much the same way as our tax system registers a social security number? For life?
  8. SMOP: a Simple Matter Of Programming. Really? Is it ever just a SMOP? Some days, I beg to differ.
  9. Reading a plan that uses phone numbers as digital addresses. (303) 555-1234 becomes www.3035551234.(country code) for augmented services.
  10. Help! Dying from ingestion of partially hydrogenated soybean oil, sodium, artificial flavor, and propyl gallate. Yes... I ate Pop-Secret®
  11. The facial-recognition algorithm used by Picasa 3.5 is eerily accurate.
  12. Reading: "Ettus Research": Universal Software Radio Peripheral; Oh GSM, your pseudo-randomness was so earnest. ( http://bit.ly/1LGmAZ )
  13. I'm noticing Firefox crashing more since 3.5.3. It used to be nearly bomb proof. I *am* pushing it pretty hard with all the add-ons I use.
  14. Set up an Amazon S3 slice using Jungle Disk. Backing up a ton of stuff... Six hours to upload.
  15. After spending all weekend in "Linux Mode," Monday morning "Vista Mode" seems like, well, a Monday.
  16. In other extremely technical triviality, I'm drinking a pretty good wine. So there.
  17. You have to change the first line of dev_appserver.py to "#/usr/bin/env python2.5" to get Google App Engine to work on Ubuntu 9.04 (Jaunty).
  18. Anyone using @tonido? Just downloaded the software and am looking at "TonidoPlug." I can think of some very cool applications for this!
  19. Depressed about the accidental destruction of my HP 48G. It carried me through engineering school and the last 10 years of math. :(
  20. Using some "Cult of Done" principles to, hopefully, move some ideas forward.
