On April 3rd I was listening to The Writer's Almanac with Garrison Keillor on NPR and he briefly mentioned that it was Herb Caen's birthday. I'll admit that I don't know anything about Herb Caen and I've never read any of his columns. He passed away a year and a half before I moved to San Francisco. Garrison Keillor said, "He started publishing his column "It's News to Me" in the San Francisco Chronicle in 1938, the year after the Golden Gate Bridge opened. He was only 22 years old, and he continued writing 1,000 words a day, six days a week, for almost 60 years — becoming the longest-running columnist in American history."

It's 5:30 AM and I'm still awake. I haven't slept a good night in two weeks. My online show, InDigital, tackled CES 2007 in Las Vegas and it's been non-stop ever since. Last year, the show was 25 minutes and we pulled together another 5 minutes for the following show. This year, it's 47 minutes long and there's another CES episode being edited now and there's so much left to do. I think I was a little too ambitious this year. The team was the same size as last year, but four times the show. At least the first show is done and being encoded. Be first to comment this article | Quote this article on your site |

I’ve severely neglected updating my Web site and completely ignored my blog. I don’t have a good excuse. When I decided to buy this URL, I was looking for a place to post my resume and have some writing samples for employment opportunities. Then I decided that I would fill it with all those good intentions plus a blog, photos, technology reviews, and a column. Be first to comment this article | Quote this article on your site |

(Written for Yahoo! Tech Job Interview - February 2006) What does it take to have a cell phone when you travel abroad? Last year, one of my closest friends went to France for a wedding. She asked me if there was a way to take her phone with her. If she had been with Cingular or T-Mobile, the answer is a definite "maybe". With Sprint PCS and Verizon Wireless, it's definitely "no".

(Written for Yahoo! Tech Job Interview - February 2006) Yes, I've done it before. Despite all the advertising, I did forget Valentine's Day. Okay, I didn't forget, but I might as well have because I didn't attempt to plan anything until a couple days before. Did you know it's impossible to get a dinner reservation two days before? Why did I leave it until the last minute? That's a long story that I'll just call a misunderstanding. More importantly, how did I solve my dilemma? That particular year, I decided to make dinner. Now, Valentine's or any other special occasion requires a special menu. There's no falling back on your basic repertoire of recipes. I know what you're thinking – What does this have to do with technology? Be first to comment this article | Quote this article on your site |
