  2. FeedLounge in TechCrunch Feed Reader Comparison

    FeedLounge was included in a web-based feed reader roundup on TechCrunch. There were a couple of minor errors in the FeedLounge column of the chart, but I’m sure they’ll be fixed. We should be able to add a couple more marks next to items in our column pretty soon as well. It’s nice to be…

  3. New element discovered: Bushcronium

    A major research institution has just announced the discovery of the heaviest element yet known to science. The new element has been named Bushcronium. Bushcronium has one neutron, 12 assistant neutrons, 75 deputy neutrons, and 224 assistant deputy neutrons, giving it an Atomic mass of 311. These 311 particles are held together by forces called…

  4. Commercials

    Can someone explain to me why (most) companies don’t make their TV commercials available on their web sites? If they’re spending big bucks to get them on TV and in front of as many eyeballs as possible, why wouldn’t they want folks to be able to view them as easily as possible? From time to…

  5. New Cocktail

    Came down with a little head cold this week and I’m trying a new cocktail: Benadryl at night instead of the NyQuil. I still swear by the Tylenol Sinus.

  6. Draft Tonight

    My fantasy baseball draft is in about 10 minutes – follow along live if you like. 🙂 UPDATE: the draft has been postponed, tune in on Thursday @ 7pm PST to watch the carnage.

  7. Another Little Hint

    Another little hint at one of the things I’ve been working on lately. This post is part of the project: Tasks Pro™. View the project timeline for more context on this post.

  8. Around the web

    Sucking less, on a budget: Camino Goodies ~stevenf: WebDesktop 2.5 – I’ve heard from a number of customers using this with Tasks. Doonesbury 2006-03-19 Eclipse Foundation, Zend Technologies, and IBM Announce the Approval of the PHP IDE Project / 03 / 2006 / Announcements / News / Company / Zend.com – great timing for me.…

  9. Windows Tools Needed

    If I’m going to use my Dell laptop as my main machine on a trip in early summer, I’m going to need decent equivilents to: shadowClipboard – an excelent, elegant, simple multi-clipboard app for OS X. In my searches I’ve found a bunch of multi-clipboard apps that use lots of mouse-clicks and pop-up windows, but…

  10. Corrupted Font Caches in Mac OS X 10.4.x?

    Both my PowerBook and PowerMac have been suffering from corrupted font caches over the last few months. Generally a few letters in Monaco start looking funny in Mail.app. Font Finagler1 fixes it each time, however it’s becoming a real annoyance. My searches haven’t turned up any known issues – anyone know what could be causing…

  11. Zend Studio License

    Since I’m liking the Zend Studio, I sent an e-mail into the Zend folks asking if they had a license that would allow me to install the Zend Studio on all three of my development machines, without requiring 3 separate licenses (as their license agreement states is required). I received a reply this morning, letting…

  12. PHP Documentor

    I went through and created PHP Documentor formatted documentation for the code I’ve got so far for the little OS project I hinted at a few weeks ago. I’m considering doing this for Tasks Pro as well, creating a developer’s kit to sell as an add on. I’ve been using the Zend Studio on Mac…

  13. Back From Vacation

    I’m back from my weekend jaunt to (mostly) sunny Arizona. We skipped last year due to business, but this is the 4th time in 5 years taking this trip. I quite enjoy this vacation – a few rounds of golf and a few spring training baseball games do wonders for relaxation. 🙂 A few random…
