Palm (a.k.a HP) Really Wants Your Apps Plus a Wishlist

Image via Wikipedia Palm/HP is giving away $1 million in goodies for developers to port their apps over to webOS. I'm not going to pretend I'm not biased. I have a Palm Pre and I love my phone nearly as much as my own children. Head over to Palm's development site for details. My hopes [...]

Paylpal Freezes OpenCamp? What?

Image via Wikipedia Over the years, I've heard of people having issues with Paypal randomly freezing funds, mostly related to eBay. I never paid that much attention because I never knew anyone personally that happened to. Well, it's different now.

Car Crash of the Day

White Truck Blues

While having lunch with some Sabre folks today, a group of firefighters sat at a table next to us. As soon as they ordered, their radios went off and they all rushed out. On my way home, I saw them again working this scene. On the upside, I had spinach lasagna with a caesar salad.

My Connection to the Tragedy in Waco

In memory of Rob Williams

On February 28, 1993, I drove to my fiance's apartment to pick her up for lunch. From the parking lot, I noticed there was a note on her door. I ran up the steps to the second floor and read the note. I read it again. And I read it again. It sank in after [...]

Holy Wars: Apple Vs. Adobe or What's Old Is New Again

Way back in the day, before all this fancy schmancy new-fangled crap you pass off for modern computing, we had our very own technology holy wars. Back then it was CP/M versus DOS. There was even a multitasking version of CP/M (I know, even before Apple was a company). However, famously Bill Gates was able [...]
