Before I got my first blackberry, I hated the idea. Mostly because I hated people with the “blackberry twitch”; ie: that incessant need to check the phone every time it buzzes/dings/etc with a new email message.
When I finally *had* to get my first berry, I determined that I’d do everything in my power to avoid […]
I’ve been using Xobni for the last 48 hours or so, and while I’m pretty damned impressed, I had some suggestions for the team:
Searching is good, but I can’t pull up the whole conversation… So if one email in the conversation has a message, I can’t for the life of me figure out how to just […]
Twitter is currently down. Has been for awhile. Scheduled maintenance, so this isn’t a big deal. Except that, as Dave Winer recently, scheduled downtime of 6+ hours on a service people rely on for communication isn’t acceptable. Stil, like Dave, there are certain situations in which you need to pause writes to the database, so […]
Hmm, I’m feeling like a dumbass…
Alright, so what I’m looking to do is right-click on a cell that’s the result of a formula and have the cell data just be the result.
For example, I have a bunch of data and then a bunch of totals. I want to take the totals row and snag that […]
Ugh… Evidence:
27 of 45 Techmeme are about, or in response to the iPhone (yeah, I know I’m not helping)
All kinds of really important features for a huge number of phone users simply aren’t in the iPhone: Engadget article
Call quality, and the network, are horrible: Valleywag article
And, above all, the HYPE is insane… Especially when compared […]
I’m starting to get really, really frustrated…
Every week, I need to empty my gmail spam, my gmail storage, delete all my b5 notification emails, delete all wordpress notification… just to be able to keep using my email.
What I want is more space. And the 1% bi-weekly increases just aren’t enough to keep up with how […]
Pingdom recently ran a survey of 7 massive sites to see what they used behind the firewall.
I find a lot of this fascinating. For example, that TechCrunch only runs on 2 servers. I’d be scared crapless of running what is effectively a million-dollar/year business on anything less than 5 servers (2 web, 2 DB, 1 other) for […]
Okay, the name “Windows Home Server” didn’t really instill any excitement in me. But the features really did:
1. Centralized store of files
2. Backups computers on your network automatically
3. Monitors health of network
4. Controlled via a console from any computer
5. Up/down access from anywhere on the planet
As I was watching the on10 video, the line “and […]
IE7 is finally nearing release. Release Candidate 1 just dropped today, and I’m downloading it now. The good news? No need to uninstall previous IE7 betas.

A note more for myself than anything, but here is a list of bug fixes in IE7:
