Church, we would do very very well to heed this message:

Buy My iMac!

Saturday, June 9th, 2007

I’m consolidating my tech and selling some older stuff off, therefore e-baying my iMac G5. It’s a great machine, but the siren call of the Macbook Pro was too great for me to resist.

I’m selling this puppy with a lot of extras. It’d be a great school machine, and even makes a formidable […]

Good Deal On DLP LCD Projector, Anyone?

Monday, May 14th, 2007

I’m looking to unload a DLP projector that I purchased as sort of a failed business move. It’s only been used twice (to my knowledge). Once to watch the Superbowl, and once to watch Kingdom of Heaven. It works like a charm, I just don’t need it, and want it out of […]

I want my MTV

Wednesday, April 25th, 2007

MTV’s Web site is sweet. They just released a fast, clean, HTML+CSS site, a wonderful change from their Flash based behemoth, which really was a technical wonder, but really hard to use. I am totally digging the new version. Mad props to my favorite designer/dev, Dan Cedarholm, for leading the team into […]

Godbit Project Features RockISU.com

Thursday, January 18th, 2007

The Godbit Project did a kind review of rockisu.com

The first thing that grabs your attention when visiting the site is the texture. I love the way the look of ruggedness intermixes with the clean lines. The two conflict yet compliment each other, for a sort of modernly urban feel. The next thing that […]

Back Up Your Data NOW

Thursday, August 3rd, 2006

I mean like now. As in, call your tech guy, or get out a DVD-R, or whatever you do, and back up your files.

Fortunately, I backed my business finances (quickbooks file) off of Nancy’s laptop where she keeps them the DAY before we went into the hospital (after the last time we modified them). […]

I Like To Ride My Bicycle

Monday, July 3rd, 2006

Last year I picked up a bike at a garage sale for $15. It’s a bit too short for me, and the tires are always a little low on air (it’s a cheap target brand bike), but it’s a lot of fun to ride. I’ve been riding it around a bit more here […]

Attention NotOurHome bloggers!

Saturday, June 17th, 2006

I have just upgraded the MovableType software that NotOurHome lives on. This means changes in many possible things, not the least of which is the way things look when you log in. I’m not sure the extent of the changes, or if everything still works, so if you run into any problems, let […]

CSS Reboot (aka, redesigning)

Wednesday, April 26th, 2006

I’m exhausted. The last several weeks have been many late nights and packed schedules doing many different things; mostly working. I have several sites that have gone live or are going live soon over the last several weeks.

In the midst of all of this, I have decided to be a little selfish and […]

Post-modern Technological Prophets

Wednesday, February 1st, 2006

If I may toot my own horn for a moment (toot toot!), Godbit, a site I contribute to from (rare) time to time was recently inducted into the 9rules network*.  There was even a nice write-up about Godbit on their blog by 9rules’s man, Shawn Anthony.

If the Christian faith ever needed a handful of post-modern, […]

Spam Google Spam Recipies Spam Spam and Spam

Wednesday, January 18th, 2006

Gmail has recently added a “Web clips” section to their Webmail (or is that a function of me having google desktop installed?). It usually provides mildly interesting related links associated with your e-mail.

This was hillarious though. As seen while purging my spam folder.

mmmm. Spam

My Trip to Philadelphia

I just got back from Philadelphia where I had the great fortune of attending An Event Apart 2005. (A Web design conference put on by THE guys…)

I posted about it on my Web Design blog.

Buy a Mac

From the Wall Street Journal

A New Gold Standard for PCs - WALTER S. MOSSBERG and KATHERINE BOEHRET

“To put it simply: No desktop offered by Dell or Hewlett-Packard or Sony or Gateway can match the new iMac G5’s combination of power, elegance, simplicity, ease of use, built-in software, stability and security. From setup to performing the […]

Air Guitarist’s Rock Dreams Come True

Tuesday, November 29th, 2005

Some of you know that the reason I learned to play guitar was because I am an avid air guitarist, which caused no end of frustration to my girlfriend (now wife) back in the day. “You don’t know how to play guitar! Stop that air guitaring, it’s annoying!”

Well, I wasn’t about to give […]

Apple announces new iMacs, iPods

Wednesday, October 12th, 2005

Of course, mere weeks after I purchase one, Apple updates their iMac line… bah.

The salt in the wound is that they now come with iSight and Mighty Mouse STANDARD, both of which I purchased separately.

For the love of Mac…

Thursday, August 18th, 2005

Makes me proud to be a Mac user… and by proud I mean.. really confused.

My Brain is in the shop.

Monday, May 9th, 2005

Ironically, I took my laptop in to the shop the day before my “anniversary”

It’s still there :(

Matt:

I’ll tell you a little tale about your computer. The replacement hard drive was installed late on Friday by one of our technicians, after which he started diagnostics just before he took off for the day. A […]

Sending E-mails that are likely to get read.

Thursday, March 10th, 2005

The Harvard Business School “Working Knowledge” sectionhad a very very helpful article today on Tips for mastering e-mail overload.

Helpful tips under two major points: How to send better e-mails, and how to read and recieve e-mail. I think the first issue greatly alleviates the second, so I’m including the major points here. I […]
