I have worked with all sorts of people, conservatives, ex-military personnel, liberals, hippies, jocks, homosexuals and a whole lot more. IT and software development attract a lot of different people. I never really cared what their religious beliefs or political views were because it has no relevance to their work. I also try to avoid… Read More Who Did You Learn From Today?
Yes, I have another guest post over at LouisGray.com. The post is titled “Increased Activity Streams Boost Social Median’s Chances” and is loosely summarized as follows: The one problem I have been having with SocialMedian has been the need to manually “clip” stories that I find interesting on the internet.

The old FeedBurner feed location will still work for a long while, but you should switch to the new location anyway. I apologize for any problems that we… Read More The RSS Feed Has Moved To a New Home

I have tried to avoid this kind of topic, but there are several things I would… Read More FriendFeed Fixes I Do Not Want To Beg For
I tend to read a lot of books. Some are typical science fiction and fantasy fare, but I often read business or personal productivity books as well. One book that I had put off long enough was The 4-Hour Workweek by Tim Ferris. I do not agree with everything in the book, and I am… Read More Startups and the 4 Hour Work Week
