• Earthquake RSS

    Posted on January 29, 2005

    I was sitting at the office and thought I felt the building shaking. It might have been a truck, or the building settling, or an earthquake. So I went over to the USGS earthquake maps, a very cool resource. Must have been something other than an earthquake, but I still... [Read More]

  • Geek Wine

    Posted on January 29, 2005

    Niall has proposed a Geek Wine Gathering at a place called VinoVenue right over by the Feedster offices (right by the Metreon in San Francisco). They serve tea also, not just wine. The geeky part are the machines that dispense the wine, they use smartcards to dispense an ounce of... [Read More]

  • Series 60 Python

    Posted on January 24, 2005

    In preparation for the mobile geekout tonight I finally got around to installing and mucking around with Python for the Series 60. I haven’t had time to really explore the boundaries yet, but what I have played with has been fantastic. Check out the Python for Series 60 wiki page... [Read More]

  • Feedster Upgrades

    Posted on January 22, 2005

    As is probably abundantly obvious from the front page at Feedster. We originally expected that the downtime would be Friday afternoon, but there were some snags (I would point you to Scott Johnson’s post, but apparently it’s on the servers that are currently down, d’oh!). So this is a planned... [Read More]

  • Link Management

    Posted on January 21, 2005

    I ran into Tantek last night at Russ’s birthday party, and talking with him reminded me that I never updated my blog to include XFN info. Wordpress includes a nice simple XFN generator for the links section, so I decided to use that. I had originally populated the links with... [Read More]

  • Bringing Great Open Source Ideas to Market

    Posted on January 20, 2005

    I went to a presentation at Stanford VLAB titled “Bringing Great Open Source Ideas to Market” earlier this week. There were some interesting comments made, and I’ll get some of those down here. First I want to mention the overall message however: “2005 will be the breakout year for open... [Read More]

  • New Wordpress Install

    Posted on January 19, 2005

    I upgraded my Wordpress install today. I’ve been getting a ton of comment spam, and instead of hacking my aging install to deal with it I want to hack a new install. Wordpress has served me really well, and I love the features, so instead of being a punter and... [Read More]

  • Steve Case at the Computer History Museum

    Posted on January 13, 2005

    I went to see Steve Case give an interview at the Computer History Museum tonight. It was actually kinda boring, but some points were made. Here are some notes from me, heavily editorialized by me, only vaguely based on what they were talking about on stage. [Read More]
