The January Project
If you’ve been paying attention to my Flickr gallery lately, you may have noticed a recent picture called “Bump”. That’s not just a random belly: Kim and I are going to be parents near the end of January! I know, we’re rushing into this – we’ve only been married 14 years – but we’re excited. ...

Macworld’s iMovie ’08 Review
Macworld has posted their review of iMovie ’08, written by Mike Curtis of HD for Indies. (I was originally tapped to write the review, but I had to back out; my plate is overflowing already, and I wouldn’t have had the time to review iMovie ’08 fully given that it’s now a completely new program.) ...

Goodbye Gonzales. Dems, Don’t Screw This Up, Too
Attorney General Alberto Gonzales announced his resignation today (effective September 16), eliciting a collective sigh of relief across the nation. The term “incompetent” gets thrown around too much these days (and isn’t that a statement on the political climate we’re living in), so I’m not going to say that Gonzales was incompetent – he was ...
