  1. Around the web

MacIntel commentary The Star Wars A Serendipitous Intention – Dating an Apple Developer – this one resonated a little too much w/ my better half.

  2. SubEthaEdit

    I just bought a few licenses of SubEthaEdit1 for use in FeedLounge development. Scott and I used it for a good part of the day2 while making some optimizations for FeedLounge and it worked exceedingly well. I remember playing with Hydra before they renamed it. At the time, it was intriguing on the collaboration side,…

  3. E-mail Stats

    I was curious, so I ran some numbers on the free e-mail accounts people are using to sign up for the FeedLounge beta. So far: Gmail: 44% Yahoo: 5% Hotmail: 2% I was more than a little surprised to see Yahoo and Hotmail down so low. This tells me that, at least among a certain…

  4. What a Week

    Man, what a week! It feels great to have finally gone public with FeedLounge. As the alpha launch drew near, I was spending more and more time on it and getting very excited about it – it was hard not to talk about it here. I’m very glad it’s out, and I’m glad other people…

  5. Announcing FeedLounge!

    UPDATE: I am no longer part of FeedLounge. After a year of percolating and many months of development, I (along with Scott, my partner in this particular crime) am very pleased to announce the alpha launch of FeedLounge! FeedLounge is a web-based feed reader that is a wonderful hybrid of the speed and power interface…

  6. Anticipation

    About 6.5 hours until launch… I’m excited! This post is part of the project: FeedLounge. View the project timeline for more context on this post.

  7. Poor Multi-tasking Performance

    Over the last week as I’ve been pushing towards a release and working remotely with several other folks, I’ve found that I cannot simultaneously: talk on the phone read e-mail read and reply to an IM conversation I need better multi-tasking capabilities. 🙂

  8. Enjoying the Aeron

    My Aeron was finally delivered last Friday. 😎 I think it was worth the extra wait to get the colors and specs I wanted, I should have this chair for a long time. I’m quite enjoying the breathability and better fit compared to my old chair. My only caveat is that my most comfortable sitting…

  10. Sick Puppy

    My poor pup got sick last night. She doesn’t like thunder storms, so we aren’t sure if it was stress from the thunder storm last night while we were out or perhaps a bacterial thing from swimming in the creek last weekend. Either way, she was one sick puppy last night. The good news is…

  11. Mattress

    When buying a mattress, I highly recommend that spend at least 10-15 lying on your side in the store (if you ever sleep on your side). If you just lie on your back in the store, you might well get a mattress that is too firm then have shoulder and neck pain after sleeping on…

  12. You Need 3 E-mail Accounts

    I’ve had several friends and family members recently ask me what to do about the flood of spam they receive in their e-mail. Here is my advice: don’t let the spammers get your e-mail address. 🙂 To that end, everyone needs (at least) three e-mail accounts: Personal Account – this is the e-mail address you…

  13. Bedside Notebook

    A week ago, I went out and bought a little notebook to keep on my nightstand – a place to jot down ideas so I can let them go and get some sleep (part of my electronic brain plan). Last night I used it for the first time and it worked out pretty well. If…
