Conferences, Conferences

Just a little reminder… I’ll be moderating the How to Convince Your Company to Embrace [Web] Standards at SxSW 2006 next Tuesday. If you’re going to be at the conference, please show up, even if it’s just to heckle. We’ll have our presentation online by the time we actually sit down to give the panel […]

The Sun Sets Over Mandelieu

Time-Lapsed Sunset\ I finally got the pictures off the camera and will try to get them all up before leaving for Texas. I think this is my favorite one so far (I haven’t look at all of them yet – I have to work and stuff). It’s a two second exposure of the last moments […]

Close, But Not Quite

(I wrote this in the Frankfurt airport yesterday… just now getting around to posting it)\ You know, you’d think I’d remember how weird watching familiar TV shows in different languages is. But, I’m an idiot, so of course, it’s a shock every time. I didn’t want much TV this week, but when getting ready in […]

Since I Can’t Put Up Photos…

How come I wasn’t chosen? Huh? Huh? I blog […]

I am such a bachelor

The Sin of Jet Lag Pride

I had a fool-proof yet self-destructive method for surviving radical time zone changes. Here’s how it goes: Don’t sleep on the plane. Not because I don’t want to, but because I can’t. Stay up until a reasonable bedtime hour in the destination city, eat a light dinner, take Tylenol PM and go to sleep. Second […]

Fitting In

Adventures in Churchery

I wrote this a couple of days ago…\ Day one without the husband, only 8 more to go:\ I’m back from church, for which I had to get ready and endure without help. We skipped Sacrament Meeting cuz the baby was cranky and I didn’t think I could handle him alone. We got there in […]
