I simply wanted to thank you.
This past year has not been one of my best. Though I have a fantastic family and a great job, the going was still frequently rough, and it continues to be. There were many times that your Tweets brought the first smile to my day, and there were even more occasions in which they took the edge off when I needed it most.
I have some long-time friends on Twitter who know me in real life, and I have some very new friends on Twitter who wouldn’t know me if they passed me in an empty hall, but in both cases, I consider your friendship both very real and very special. You know who you are.
So with this, I wish you the absolute best your lives can bring in 2010, and above all, I hope everyone gets the fresh start that they want or need. If 2009 has proven anything, it’s that we all deserve one.
Thank you, and Happy New Year!

Hah! I had no idea FoxMarks had become XMarks, and that XMarks not only worked with Firefox installations but also Internet Explorer, Safari, and Google Chrome.
For my little geek heart, this is awesome. It means I can have Safari and Firefox bookmarks on my same system synchronized, and that same synchronization will apply to my iPhone and to the Firefox installation running on Ubuntu on my baby netbook.
Sync, when it works, is the sexiest feature of an application.
Yes, I need to get out more.

"80% of CEOs and CFOs said they would not spend money to make their factories more efficient and save money in the long run if it hurt their next quarter bottom line. ‘That,’ says Al Gore, ‘is functionally insane.’"

Today? This weekend? I’m just done.
So, so done.

If SMS text messaging and MMS multimedia messaging had a baby together, and if email and chat had a baby together, and through some odd happenstance, if those two babies grew-up, met, and had a baby together, that baby would be called “Google Wave.”

…is a truly wonderous and amazing thing.
For other people.

An excellent article, really, but it completely left out the problem of “the puddle.”
That’s right…you never want to touch the bottom of a man’s shoe unless it’s still in the box in which it rests at the store. After that, never.

It’s maybe a little sad how absolutely fascinated I was by this.
