No, this isn’t the end of my long-running job hunt. The hunt goes on. Instead, I’ve been commissioned to redesign the website for a local organization. I probably shouldn’t give too many details about my client at the moment, except to say that the person who commissioned me also happens to be a friend of […]
As I’ve stated numerous times on this blog and elsewhere, I am a hardcore Firefox user. I love the look, feel, and utility of Mozilla’s browser, and I’ve often tried to convert friends to my side on the new Browser Wars. I am a self-proclaimed Browser Zealot, and I honestly believe that all other web […]
Right now, I’m doing something that I haven’t done in years: I’m composing without a computer. That’s right, I’m going old school with pen and paper.

Say what you will about Web 2.0 and Social Media, but these buzzwords and the ideas they represent are changing how we digest information and how many companies do business. Anime is just one of many industries […]
Have you heard? Firefox 3 is being officially released on Tuesday. I’ve been testing this release since the fifth Beta, and I can honestly say that I was pleasantly surprised by how much I enjoyed the changes. For an overview of Firefox 3, check out the full review by Mozilla Links. They do a much […]
So one unexpected consequence of my flirtation with FriendFeed is that I finally started to use Twitter. The “Microblogging” service has always been one of those websites I never quite understood, much like the “social bookmarking” site del.icio.us before it.
