IM on the run

Meebo is a really cool service that let's you use your IM service from where ever you are. AIM, Yahoo, Google Talk or even the evil empire's MSN are all included. You can be online with all of them at once! And using only a browser. And for those of you on iPhones... you might have noticed one of the glaring omissions from that sexy little device is an IM client. Well, Meebo looks great on an iphone as well. Give it a try. It's free!!! Meebo.com

Macworld 2008

Hi All. So here we are at Macworld. Drove the whole way in fog and then it took an hour to find a parking space. So what's new?

Well, this is certainly the thinnest Mac Laptop I've ever seen. It's not really any more powerful than a MacBook but boy is it thin. There's no room for the superdrive (did I mention how thin it was?) so you have to buy an external one separately, so get ready to lug that along with you on your trip to the Caymans. It's going to cost you $700 more than a comparably equipped MacBook, plus the external Superdrive, but I gotta tell you, it's thin.

I gotta say, I don't get it. Really? $1799? Really. Just because it's thin? Ok, I guess. My vote for spokesperson? Paris Hilton.

Down On The Farm

Went to a farm with the kids class to pick veggies. Odd to see your kids working in the fields.

More Fire


Here's another picture. Makes for a nice sunset.

Fire!


Well, I just wanted to post a quick couple of pictures before I grab my belongings and go. I think everything will be ok (for us at least) but it sure gives you pause when you see flames from your front door.

See ya.

September Post


I actually have a lot to say, but really no time to say it. So this is just to say, hang in there.... I'll get to it.

Macworld Day 2

So we're back in the Microsoft Blogger Lounge and oh so glad to be here. We've decided that this Macworld in a lot of ways was really a yawn. (Not to the dopes who drove the stock up 12 points in two days) There IS the iPhone and the Apple TV, but we knew those were coming. No really surprises or anything that amazing. Although I guess the Apple TV is pretty cool.

Just spoke to the guys standing around the new Airport Extreme base station. It DOES route appletalk wirelessly, so that's a good thing. I'm sure I'll be using that.

Dinner with the guys was fun last nice and we enjoyed some great sushi. So now it's time to hop on I-5 and head on home.

Maybe this will get me blogging a little more often. So stay tuned.
