I need a love to help me find my way
I need a strength that I cannot betray
I need a word to say what I can't say
I need a lover

It really hard to sum up a weekend like this in a word or two. I'm inclined to say "it was a good [...]

So yesterday I claimed I was going to Lost Maples.
Ha ha hahaha. Just kidding.
Lost Maples an 8 hour drive for me, each way, and I'll have to do it alone which exactly what I don't need right now. Additionally, right now on weekends, Lost Maples has a 3 hour way to get in. So Lost [...]

TokBox is a website that provides video chat services, also known as webcam services. Yes, it's true, just about every instant messaging platform already does this: Skype, Windows Live Messenger, Yahoo Messenger –�even Google Talk does video chat now. On top of that, there are already so many sites providing video calling and conferencing like [...]

Who wants to go on a Road Trip this weekend? We'd leave Friday afternoon or early Saturday morning and head back Sunday or Monday evening. Hotel, gas, photography equipment and park admission is already covered.
If you follow me on Twitter (as you very well should) you may have witnessed my consideration of making an impromptu [...]

A few months ago, the fine people at WOMWorld lent me a Nokia E71 for review. I've been putting off publishing any sort of remarks because my mom always said "if you can't say anything nice, don't say anything at all." But, lately, they've been insistent. So, here we go.

In this Tech Tip of the Week (TTOW, get it, almost seems like a feature, doesn't it?), I will present, once again, Intense Debate, a centralized commenting system that has benefits for content authors and readers alike.
Earlier this year I looked at both Disqus and Intense Debate. I weighed each of their merits and drawbacks. [...]

A huge chunk of my thought process behind even the smallest of decisions centers around the idea of "future-proof" — the goal to make any plan hatched today even better by ensuring it will still be a valid plan in the future.
This can be an awesome quality. My boss loves me. My customers love me. [...]

I figure, if Kristy can do it then I can because I'm a way better person than her. Ok maybe not.
But I'm going to try anyway. NaBloPoMo (National Blog Posting Month)! Sure, I missed two days this month already, but, at least I'm starting you out with the right expectations.
Every time I look at the [...]

1. Memorable Halloween costume of your childhood? Of your adulthood?
Childhood: In the 5th grade my mom made me a Hermes costume at my request. It was amazing.
Adulthood: A few years ago I went as Charlie Brown… at age 30: Balding, and a drunk wearing his signature shirt covered in stains.
