Entries from June 2004
Busy evening tonight.
I signed up for Bloglines, which is a web based aggregator, and I started putting in my core of sites (they also have a great ‘most popular’ which I leeched a few off from).
What gets me about things like this, and Chandler, Spotlight, FileVault, IDisk, Keychain, Gmail, and <insert your favorite […]

I’m all about recognizing cool stuff this week.
For giggles I’ve been creating some RSS feeds in my spare time (work related actually) in C#.

I’m going to classify it […]

Turing of course was most famous for his work in Computer Science and Cryptography during WWII.

We decided to have a nice picnic dinner out at the marymoor velodrome and watch the friday night races. It’s a pretty fun to watch, mainly because you can see the whole race the whole time it is going.

So my wife and I were talking the other day about how much fun we had when we were younger playing the Super Nintendo Entertainment System.
We’re talking Super Mario Brothers, Raiden, Castlevania, Donkey Kong, and such.
So after talking it over we both agreed we should just do something about it. So we did. […]
