    I write this blog. It does not represent anyone else's opinions or perspectives. Regardless of employers or clients or any other associations, this is my blog and it does not speak for anyone else. I have learned that perception is more powerful than reality. So, we get to experience the joys of claiming and disclaiming. Isn't that super!

Just Chipping Off the Creative Block

Yesterday I posted about some creative block I’m trying to work through.  For the rest of the day I continued to make some changes to get through it.  Hey, if you keep doing what you’ve always done and expect different results, that’s probably not too SMRT. Here are some of the things I did. changed [...]

Creative Block – No, not me!

As I’m working through new areas and gathering lots of info, I often take a bunch of notes.  Then I organize those and try to find areas where there may be gaps.  Then I try to see if I already have resources or info to fill in those gaps.  Then I move on to the [...]

Is iPhone using Photosynth?

Have you tried an iPhone?  They nailed “cool” and a good browsing experience. Have you tried Photosynth?  They nailed “cool” and a good demo. This lead me to ask, “Is iPhone using Photosynth?”  If yes, nice work keeping that a secret.  If no, nice competition to bring “cool” back.   No, I didn’t just say that, [...]

"And you think the iPhone is cool…"

Nice find, Tim. 15 years ago, this was cool! People used to hold a brick to their face and talk into it. Photo courtesy of CheckOutMyCards.com And you think the iPhone is cool… « CheckOutMyCards.com Blog

Transparency re: MySpace

OK, I’m on MySpace and it’s kinda fun.  I’m up there for the fun stuff.  Isn’t that what a 35 year old bachelor is supposed to do… ‘n shit.  (I’m pretty sure that’s the second time I’ve actually ”cussed” on my blog.  Isn’t it fun.)  I’ve got plenty of other more mature and more detailed info online.  A guy’s [...]

feelings near the end of vacation

I’ve been on vacation this past week.  I left work on Monday afternoon and will not be connected there until Monday morning.  That is the vacation part. The fun part was that on Wednesday afternoon my sister got married.  I got to see lots of family and friends back in Minnesota.  (If you didn’t know, that’s [...]

Happy 25th Birthday to the Compact Disc

Among other interesting timeline facts, here’s one interesting tidbit. “Philips’ plan for a CD with a 11.5cm diameter had to be changed when Sony insisted that a disc must hold all of Beethoven’s 9th Symphony. The longest recording of the symphony in record label Polygram’s archive was 74 minutes and so the CD size was [...]

On Vacation: 2 of 2 for Sister Weddings This Summer

In a few hours I’m leaving on vacation.  I’m going to my sister’s wedding in Minnesota.  It’s the 2nd of 2 weddings for my immediate family this summer.  I’m the oldest of 5 and I have 2 younger sisters.  Naomi got married on June 9th.  Becky gets married on August 15th.  I’m so happy for both [...]

Another blogger is taking a break.

Robert Scoble is taking a break from blogging.  This is not a surprise.  Anyone who blogs a lot has this stage hit them about once a year.  They realize life is more important than just what they happen to spend a lot of time doing.  They also realize that changing where they spend time affects [...]

What is Web 2.0? (repost, with more commentary)

The Machine is Us/ing Us (Final Version) We live in a digital age, where lifestyles are often dictated by online or offline status.  Sometimes it’s the Internet.  Sometimes it’s mobile phones.  Sometimes it’s television or movies.  Yes, we all know there are many more avenues. Yet, a lot of people still struggle with understanding this [...]
