So I’m currently working on a project for an ad agency here in Salt Lake. Overall, the project is a very positive thing, and I’m sure parents and non-parents alike will be pleased with the end result. However, if you live in Salt Lake City or parts outlying, you’ve probably seen the initial stages of…

Adventures in copywriting
I fired up photoshop this morning at work, just to notice this brilliant gem of technical copywriting: Wow. Say that ten times fast…
The Joys of Moving
So I’ve officially moved, and I’m still in a state of frazzled disarray. It’s been about a week since I started (slowly) moving my belongings to my new abode, and I’m still not finished. Sadly, the only parts left are some books and… my entire office. I have the benefit of being able to move…
Speed.
It is with great pleasure (and a boat load of relief) that I announce the opening of the first site from my era at Seminar Central: UtahSpeedDating. Leaving aside my position on hip and trendy methods of dating (I prefer the more traditional approach), I must say I’m glad this site is done and out…

Writing a book.
No, actually I’m not, but I’ve thought about it. Who knows? Anyway, I found today that I will be travelling to Phoenix, AZ for the majority of the last week of August. I will be attending DevCon, the Filemaker Developers Conference. Now, before you ask the obvious question, no, I’m not a database developer, nor…
Ahem.
I’m moving.
A thought.
If I see the words “the ubiquitous Windows operating system” in another news item, I think I’ll scream… I mean, come on kids… if you’re going to pull out the thesaurus to attempt to sound authoritative, at least avoid using cliché terms and phrases.
Old and New
I’ve made a few additions to my home office this week. Perhaps the biggest was the arrival on Tuesday of my new 24″ Dell (DELL??) LCD. It was patiently awaiting me after I returned home from work on Tuesday, in an unassuming brown box (quite different, say, than the ominous black box my G5 arrived…
