If you’re going to PC Expo, take a look at ZD Net’s coverage. I’ve been going every year for the last five years or so. It’s generally worthwhile, if you’re close to NY.
On another subject completely, check out Desperate Times. This is a fairly humorous comic by Chris Eliopoulos.
Spent most of the evening listening to WXPN and reading the New York Times. Very relaxing.
We had to lay off a couple of people in my department today. It wasn’t my responsiblity to make the decision, or to deliver the bad news, thankfully. Still, I’d rather it hadn’t happened, and I wish there was something I could do about it. Check out this Bob Lewis column from InfoWorld for a couple of thoughts on being downsized.
Worried about DDoS attacks yet?
Does it ever bother you when a 17-year old seems to know more about programming that you do? And you’re 34? (Actually, it doesn’t bother me much, and he seems like a nice guy, so it’s cool. He’s written some neat stuff, too!)
Aside from adding the blog, I also updated my links page today, and played around with the page formatting a bit.
I recommend you check out Scott McCloud’s I Can’t Stop Thinking #6. It’s a pretty cool take on the whole Napster thing.
This is the first post in my blog.
