Drool…

The images above are examples of the name tags that were used at the last Facebook Developer Conference. The design completely blows me away. All I can do is sit and drool looking at these incredible name tags. If you want more, I suggest you check out the Fonts In Use article since they have […]

Why I Love Louis C.K

This is a segment of the last routine I saw by Louis C.K., I forget what the tour was called, but it’s a perfect example of just how damn funny this guy is. Source: Kung fu grippe via YouTube

Happy St. Patrick’s Day

Thanks to a re-tweet from @brittneyg, I came across this image of Ireland taken from space on a near cloudless day. There’s plenty of interesting tidbits on the resulting landing page mostly related to weather. What I found most interesting was that the photo was taken 3 days before I landed in Ireland for vacation […]

Given that I run a media streaming business, I think some high-quality footage of this flag blowing in the wind would be great for demos and “technical difficulty” messaging.

Most of these tend to be photos and although I could bookmark them, links […]

My View This Morning

Oh My Stars…

This really takes me back to my heydays with my lust for Palm and all things clear. And the fact that all it takes is patience and paint thinner is driving me nuts. I can’t tell you how badly I want to run to Home Depot right now.

Aram Bedrosian – A Dark Light

I thought I had blogged this back in August, but apparently I have not. Want to play it on endless loop at work today, I decided I should embed it in a blog post. Aram Bedrosian is a bass soloist and this song is called “A Dark Light”. My hope is that he will release […]
