  • Hey Jude

    Note: this is a letter that I wrote to my unborn son (due early August) last week.  It’s my sole contribution to Keturah’s baby shower. Hey Jude, You’re going to hear those two words A LOT.  I’m not kidding, either.  So many people are going to say lines to you such as “Hey Jude, don’t…

  • Upcoming Travel

    Yes, this post is about travel plans I have after the summer and in the early part of 2009.  Life with a one year old – and soon to be a life with two kids – means you plan trips way in advance.  It’s the ultimate example of how life with little children can so…

  • 5 Things to do in SF to get off the beaten path at web2.0expo

    After recently exchanging tweets with Richard McInnis , I found out it’s going to be his first time in SF.  So was thinking about some stuff he should do and came up with a short list of things to consider doing.  Especially if it’s your first time to SF and you want to escape the…

  • Video of Mason and his first tricycle

    I know I said there would be a pause in new Mason photos, but videos don’t count. Especially since Flickr just started supporting video and I acquired a new JVC hard disk camcorder and I want to play with both.

  • I shoot photos of things other than my son. Really.

    Honestly, I take a lot of pictures and I take pictures of things other than Mason.  Though you would never know it by looking at my Flickr photostream. So, for the next month, I’m going to focus on going back through my recent photos and posting pictures to Flickr of subjects other than Mason. Of…

  • Confirmed: We’re expecting our second baby boy

  • WP Contact Manager – Turn WordPress into a web based contact directory

    I have to admit that I never would have thought of this: http://designintellection.com/downloads/wp-contact-manager/

  • Thoughts on 2008 SXSW Interactive

    I’ve been extremely tardy in writing a recap post about my trip to Austin, Texas for the SXSW interactive Festival.  Suffice to say, it was an amazing experience and an event that I will be returning to in years to come.  One thing that was pretty clear about this gathering of technology, interactive, and social…

  • A Former Austin Resident’s Recommendations on What To Do.

    In preparation for heading to Austin for SXSW I asked a buddy of mine who used to live in Austin for his recommendations on what to do, where to eat, etc. Here’s what he had to say… Good restaurants -gueros: it’s classic tex mex and in a cool part of town on south congress. Great…

  • Nomar, what the hell happened to you?

    There was a point in time when Nomar Garciaparra was my favorite baseball player alive. And I thought he was the best shortstop around. Argued with various people that he was a better than Jeter, better than A-Rod (remember when he used to play shortstop?). I thought he would lead the Red Sox to the…
