Oh. My. Good. Hell. Ladies and gents, allow me a moment to paint a mental picture for you. Imagine, if you will, that you have a job in another town, one not all that far away, but, ahem, on the other side of a mountain or 12. This job is great, with co-workers you enjoy,…

Am I the only person somewhat horrified by this? The Adobe/Macromedia merger was finally approved over the weekend, so now Adobe has started to sell Macromedia products via their online store, as one would expect. What you might not expect is the truly grotesque “bundles” now available. Instead of waiting until their products actually worked…
Opening the box
This morning, Derek at work asked if I’d heard about Pandora. Without thinking, the first words out of my mouth were “What… like the box?” He let me know that Pandora is, in fact, a new service from the Music Genome Project (most likely soon to be eaten up by someone like Yahoo or Google)…
I’m in trouble
Salt Lake City finally received its own Apple Store after, gee, only 5-6 years of Apple dotting the planet with them. It may have taken them a while, but man… they did this one right.

This is the most brilliant thing ever…
Flock This!
The other day, Derek at work introduced me to Flock, a new… ahem, let me prepare my marketing voice… “social browsing experience.” I’d seen the signs a few months ago, floating around the web design blogosphere (have I ever mentioned how much I despise that term?), but in true “Web 2.0” fashion, details were scarce.…
Job. Again.

Interesting goings on at the Bowers… uh… homestead? No… that’s not right—can’t really call a duplex a homestead, now can you? Perhaps the Bowers Compound… my doors are (by fault of design) always locked. Regardless of what I call my place, it’s been a wild past few weeks. I won’t go into all the hairier…
