So, I’ve moved from TwitterFox back to an Adobe AIR app for my Twittering. This time, it isn’t Snitter – I’m now using Twhirl. So far the experience is pleasant. The interface is easy to use and understand, and it runs fast and doesn’t eat up too many CPU cycles (more of an effect of […]
I know, I changed the banner YET AGAIN
The wife didn’t like the font of the new banner, so I made yet another alteration. I’m very happy with this one and can guarantee that it will remain on the site for at least another day. Beyond that point, no promises.
I know, I changed the banner again
It’s still a good two week until May, but I felt like putting together a new banner. The rule is no longer “new banner every month.” The rule is now “new banner whenever I feel like it.”
Okay, so the Twitter habit is hard to break

If you look back at my archives for February and March, and especially April, […]
All these wonderful toys!
I’ve picked up a few nice toys in the past week or so. They’re so much fun, I thought it was time to share what I’ve been playing around with. My first HDTV. The reviews aren’t spectacular for this particular model, but the price was right: $100 from a co-worker. He explained the issues that […]
2008: the year of the Wii RPG?
There are so many Wii games to look forward to this year, it’s hard to pick a few out and hold them up as shining examples of what I’m most hopeful to see before the holidays. But that’s exactly what I’m going to do. More to the point, I’m taking a look at the list […]
