Alison Barclay has just sent me the latest: “THE MIDLANDS, UK – September 28th, 2006 – Astraware and Revolution Software are excited to announce a special Broken Sword promotion to celebrate […]

Good backups of my Palm have saved my fanny several times. One time, I ended up using an obscure, almost forgotten and out of date backup file because every other backup I had was dead. I hope I never relive that day- and with some solid backup software, I shouldn’t have to.

Saturday, after another fabulous breakfast at the hotel’s restaurant, we settled in for what would prove to be an exciting day of brainstorming. Derek Brown one of the original founders of Mobius, gave us a quick overview of the coup that had just occurred in Bangkok before showing us a video about deploying computers and

Here’s a scenario…You are outside working on something important,
and the traditional hanging shop light which is hooked to your
workspace gets dislodged. It falls, and the hot light bulb inside
the metal protective cage shatters into a million pieces – leaving
you and your project in total darkness. Or perhaps that light
doesn’t get dislodged, but instead the bulb burns out at an
inconvenient time. Or okay, here’s another: what if you need the
light while working on a project in the middle of nowhere, but
there is no outlet anywhere nearby – perhaps not for miles. If you
can picture yourself in any of those situations, then you’ll
appreciate the product I’ll be talking about today, the TerraLUX
WorkStar60 LED Work Light.

I’ve always been fascinated by small tools. I guess it comes from being a little kid and watching my Dad work on things in the garage. I even had my own little toolbox that I kept under my bed. It was actually an old metal fishing tackle box full of parts from little machines that I’d dismantled. That love of small tools and objects didn’t leave me as I grew up. That’s why I had to take a closer look at the tools made by Peter Atwood when I saw many people on the EDCforums talking about his offerings.

I hope everyone is having a nice weekend so far. The weather here has been pretty icky, so it’s been a nice day to just stay inside surfing on the net and watching TV. I went crazy on Friday and ordered a 24″ iMac with all the trimmings (except 3gb of RAM, I settled for

This morning at 5:30, I was awakened by a call from Steve telling me that Sarah had shaved several seconds off her events at her just completed varsity swimming time trials! I hate that I missed them, but talking to Steve and then Sarah made it almost as good as being there. Yay Sarah, I

The first time I ever saw a picture of the iCarta (from Atech Flash Technology), I thought it had to be a joke. Who would make an iPod speaker system that doubled as a toilet paper holder? The date on my calendar did not say April Fools day though, so this was actually a real honest to goodness new iPod accessory. Now in addition to having an iPod in your pocket, in your office and in your living room, you can also have one in the bathroom. The iCarta box says that it will enhance your experience. Ok, I won’t go there…

Well, I arrived in Phuket Thursday morning without any trouble; other than the handful of soldiers which I saw at the airport exit, there was no indication that anything out of the ordinary was happening in Thailand. After an hour’s ride from the airport in a chauffeured Toyota Highlander, I arrived at the Mövenpick Resort

Every decade or so, there comes certain fashions, foods, oreven
dances (remember the Macarena!) that transcend international
boundaries and becomes popular just about everywhere on the planet.
I would put sudoku in that category. Just in case you’ve been
living under a rock, sudoku has done just that by becoming popular
with the crossword puzzle crowd to dominate every bookstore shelf,
grace the pages of many newspapers and periodicals and of course,
the thousands of fan web sites around the world devoted to the
game.

Unlike yesterday’s aborted journey, today my trip to Phuket started without a hitch. I flew to Dallas, and as I ate lunch in an airport restaurant, I caught up on the email and text messages I’d missed during the previous hour’s flight. As I read, a message from Julie caught my eye, “Hey I just
