An Unexpected Wii

07May07

I’ve been interested in owning a Nintendo Wii for quite awhile, especially now that we have one at work and I get a chance every so often to play it. Since the weather was crappy this weekend, about the only thing Lindsey and I did on Saturday was do a little shopping, grabbed some [...]

Geektastic TV: The Research Channel

09May06

While I do not posess a lot of the dead giveaway traits of a typical geek (I’m not into fantasy stuff like Lord of The Rings at all, have never played DnD, I can talk to the opposite sex without staring at my feet, etc), there are certainly some traits I do have. I [...]

How To Get Free Weekend T-Mobile Wi-Fi Access

03Apr06

I took the new laptop to Starbucks this weekend to do a bit of homework, and much to my surprise I was able to get on the intaratron for free as I’m an existing T-Mobile customer. Apparently they have a limited time offer for existing T-Mobile customers to get free Wi-Fi at any T-Mobile [...]

New Laptop Ordered

12Mar06

I’ve been rolling the decision over in my head about a new laptop for quite awhile. Originally I really wanted to wait awhile longer and move to a MacBook Pro once it had a revision or two under it’s belt as I’d /really/ love to have a Unix powered workstation, but after researching and [...]

Big Changes Abound

10Aug05

I have no personal comment about this (and I’ll need to be even more careful than usual in the future for sure), but some big things have happened today on the work front.
One other link I’ve found about this so far is at (but it was just announced at 4 PM ET): ArkansasBusiness.com.

The Chemical Brothers have released a couple of albums on BitTorrent– one is various fan remixes of their music, and the other one is a Torrent only album.

Not content with the unprecedented international success of their last remix project, the team behind “Always Outsiders, Never Outdone”, the unofficial Prodigy Remixed album, have only gone and [...]

Off to CFUNITED

28Jun05

Okay, I’m finally packed for the flight to DC tomorrow en route to CFUNITED. Well, truth be told, I probably spent most of my time figuring out what 40 GB slice of my insane 164 GB Mp3 collection would be appropriate for the next 5 days. I kind of doubt I’ll be checking [...]

Mark Cuban: Rage Against The RIAA Machine

28Mar05

Mark Cuban comments on the next big p2p case making it’s way to court, MGM vs. Grokster on his blog. I think this is the most facinating part of the post:

Thats what is ahead of us if Grokster loses. Thats what happens if the RIAA is able to convince the Supreme Court of the [...]

It’s Zippy Like Tabasco

27Mar05

I’ve been spending a little time here and there in the last week moving my web stuff over to the new server while doing homework, and now it’s finally switched over. Let me know if anything is broken. In general the site should be like eleventy billion times faster now.
I still have [...]

Life’s Ironies

07Dec04

I was just telling my friend Molly something about some work I did in the past (while browsing Amazon to populate some more stuff on the Wish List), and I remembered something that happened pretty early in my career. It’s funny to think about it now, but back in the day, I actually did [...]
