Facebook Lockdown

I know this is an ironic post because I'm writing it on my public personal blog, but here it goes anyway. Facebook is a privacy nightmare.

"Have Laptop, Won't Travel." Reads the Blog Post of a Man

My sister-in-law and brother made the trip to NYC to seek my advice on creating a blog. They're going to be launching a recipe/foodie site very soon and I will link it from here.

Building My Chumby - Part 1

For Christmas my in-laws got me Chumby Guts! A Chumby is a configurable widget appliance. The Guts kit allows you to build your own.

Me on an iPad

The mlw got one for work so I got to play around with it for an evening. It's been reviewed to death, so I won't add to the deluge.

A Face For Radio

I've been posting photos online at this blog since 2001. Many times, people have asked me, "Why don't you video blog?"

Wires, Wires, And Wires

Cat 5 to be exact. It amazes me that Man can create and know something that looks so chaotically organic as this.

Galleries and Brooklyn Trout NEXT GEN

I've been blogging somewhere else. WHAT?!?! you might say. Don't worry, I'm not being unfaithful, I've just chosen to put more of my Internet and technology posts at STC. com.

BlackBerry Blackberry Pie

During the Thanksgiving holiday I made a blackberry pie using a recipe I had emailed to myself...on my BlackBerry. Unintended craziness!

On a side note, I love my BlackBerry Bold very, very much.

Checks and Nostalgia

I removed the photo. The personal information was all blurred out, but still a creepy number of people do image searches for checks. Well, freaks, I'm tracking your IP addresses.

While throwing out some old papers last night, I stumbled upon these two checks. The first is a rent check from when I was in grad school in Pittsburgh. That $180 got me a room in a house, with a yard, washer and dryer, in a great neighborhood. The second check is for a Pentium 233. That $1389 got me a computer that I swear to God is propping open my bedroom door right now.
