On my way to see tonight’s performance of "i google myself", by Jason Schafer… produced by my friend Mark Pickell’s Capital T Theatre. # I’m trying to go to the doctor to look at my shoulder ‘cuz I’m told it’s the thing to do. I’ve never been one to seek medical help though. # It’s [...]

The Austin American-Statesman has partnered with Quattro Wireless and updated their mobile web portal. You can view the new mobile site by visiting http://statesman.com in your mobile browser, or directly by visiting http://statesman.qwapi.com. I’d never seen the qwapi.com domain before, but a little Google search shows that the service is quite popular with content portals. [...]

Jade, Bryan, and I took a snowboarding trip to Salt Lake City, Utah January 24-29th. Neither of them had ever even seen real snow and none of us had ever been skiing, snowboard, or otherwise.

Today was awesome. Much falling and many bruises later, I’ve got the basics of snowboarding down. Tomorrow we’ll hit some harder slopes. # Using iPhoto for the first time because Jade’s Canon Powershot won’t connect otherwise. I hate that, like iTunes, it makes me import. # I’m going to have to challenge the instructor to [...]

Made it to Salt Lake City. It’s white and cold and great. We’re making the drive through the mountains to Eden now. #

*chiming in to @twitterpeeps* Well, there’s a .an, but it’s closed to foreigners. I will be appealing to the Netherlands Antilles. # Tried to create @twitterpeeps account after I referenced it but was told "Username can not contain ‘twitter’" – damn. # Heading to the Austin Creative Commons Salon @ Cafe Caffeine because I’m curious [...]
