What I do for work...

A few of you know what my actual “paying” job entails… Many of you, I’m sure, don’t. This being the case, I thought I’d post of photo of what I did last Friday…

Inventing over kickball...

So, yesterday evening while watching the first annual WAKA kickball pickup game of 2007 — I didn’t tell you that my wife and I joined the national kickball league, did I? (By the way, WAKA stands for “World Adult Kickball Association).

N800 News: Good things are coming!

The GNOME Mobile & Embedded Initiative will advance the use, development and commercialization of GNOME components as a mobile and embedded user experience platform. It brings together industry leaders, expert consultants, key developers and the community and industry organizations they represent.

For those of you who don’t have an N800, or who don’t delve too far into open source software, this is very exciting. Very exciting indeed.

My son, Josiah, is a trooper...

If you didn’t know, my son, Josiah, recently underwent a cranioplasty due to a fractured skull. If you’d like to read about it, go here (start at the bottom).

Thanks to my Nokia N800 Internet Tablet (and Children’s Mercy‘s hospital-wide wifi), I was able to document our entire experience. I don’t know if I would have been able to cope the way I did without being able to do this.
