  • Satoshi’s Wireless Weblog: User Interface is an Art: Two BREW apps in the market. Satoshi is a long time friend and business partner. It is cool that his applications are now available in the market. Kudos to you.

  • User Interface is an Art, but Trackbacks are not…

    Satoshi’s Wireless Weblog: User Interface is an Art but Trackbacks are not. Satoshi is absolutely right that Trackbacks are way too hard to understand and differentiate from comments. Interesting to think about the mobile analog to trackback and how that should work. Seems like, when I update, I should get a ping and then see…

  • Mothers Day and Other Gifts

    What to get for the girl who has everything. Well, that is hard, but here are some things I’ve been looking at: * A Cook’s Wares – www.cookswares.com. First on the list is a Cream Whipper. Amazing way to get whipped cream for those fresh strawberries. BTW, Cookswares, is a very nice online site. So…

  • Connie's New Blackberry

    RIM BlackBerry 6210- Karbon Systems. Connie’s Blackberry has finally given up the ghost and she doesn’t want to learn something new. We got it two years ago from buy.com and Aether and it was a nightmare service. Things breaking with the service all the time and mysterious failures with the device. But, it worked super…

  • MTB Stem

Here are links if you need to do the same thing by checking out Stem Reviews, Specs and Shopping Information. A good…

    DeCSS Central. Here are the facts on CSS and DeCSS

  • Wifi The Real Tier

    We’ve been talking quite a bit about wireless and how things to get going. It is amazing how many APs are just happening with just T-mobile. There is a top down strategy from: * Seattle Wireless – Connecting People To Wi-Fi. This has gone from a free for everyone into a pay service. * “Surf…

  • Lake Washington Elevation and Weather

    Rivers: Lake Washington. Kind of a fun site. Tells you water conditions and levels in Seattle. Amazing what they put on the web these days. “NOAA Seattle”:http://www.wrh.noaa.gov/Seattle/. The source of all weather. Actually, in many ways more interesting that watching the news or weather.com.

  • Bi-wiring and Speaker Cables

    I’m in the middle of changing the cables I have in my home theater. There is quite a bit written and it is a little confusing. I have an incredible mismash of cables and they are coming apart. I want to make them neat and clean. Here are some relevant things to look at: *…
