It’s a sad day around my office today. You’ll notice that I usually do not mix office stuff with this blog. I am making today an exception. I have lost some friends today and hope that they fair well in the coming days.



Who Would Have Thought?

28 11 2007

sounderwifi.jpgI have been playing with the Dashcode editor in Leopard. One of the first things I did was try to create something that would clip a RSS feed for Sound Transit alerts about Sounder. After combing the web site I found that of all the feeds that soundtransit.org offers, there was not one for just Sounder alerts. I thought this was odd, so I spent a little more time looking.

Mac Rumors: Mobile Google Maps to Bring GPS-Like Positioning to iPhone?

28 11 2007

iPhoneI tried the Navizon software while my iPhone was in a “hacked state” and liked it. Except for the fact that my office wifi somehow placed me 36 miles NNE of my real location. I am going to assume that the big G will do it a bit better. This would be very cool to see this on my phone.

So our niece Natalie had a film project at school. Tell a story about procrastination with just video and music. Here is the result, put up on youtube for her by yours truly.

Well this year we took the day off. Since my sister, her family and my mother are in Oregon with Kate, we had Thanksgiving at Jeans (Robin’s mother) this year. So we got to relax, eat, help with dishes and go home. It was nice not to be the ones hosting 18-20 people for dinner.

We did get a chance to talk to everyone in Oregon via video and Skype. It was good to see Kate.

Botnet Herder Pleads Guilty to Massive PayPal Scam

13 11 2007

A 26-year-old security consultant named John Schiefer has admitted to illicitly installing code to assemble botnet armies of up to 250,000 infected computers that harvested user PayPal names, passwords and other personal and financial information.

This is why I protected our pay-pal account with their security key the day they came out. It cost only $5 and is a very secure way to protect your account.
