Commute home- Brooklyn to Teaneck

Commute home- Brooklyn to Teaneck

Posted on 20. Oct, 2009 by .

(2:52pm) Jay Street is under construction.  I feel like I work at Home Depot… and it doesn’t bother me. A little more crowded now, but you should see it at 5-6. Ahhh, new tile. Now I feel like I am in a shower. Where is my rubber ducky? (2:54pm) On the A train back uptown. [...]

The Morning Commute- Teaneck to Brooklyn

Posted on 20. Oct, 2009 by .

I thought it would be a little fun to make a video log of my commute to/from Brooklyn. Nothing of consequence happened on the way, this morning, but there is always fun in seeing the very slow and worn system that gets us where we need to go everyday. The morning starts at 5:20am. Waiting [...]

I recently got access to Google Wave, and I am looking forward to using it and giving it a good stretch off.  The real power of GW is using it with other users.  Hopefully, I will find a whole bunch of other users that also have access to the preview. So, if you use Wave, [...]

10.6 Snow Leopard post 2, electric boogaloo

Well, I have had some time to play around on MacOS 10.6 (Snow Leopard), and overall it seems to have been worth the upgrade cost ($10).  I did, however, run into a couple fo snags.  Understandably, there are a few bumps that need to be ironed out, namely software not developed by Apple.  For example, [...]

10.6 Snow Leopard update

Posted on 31. Aug, 2009 by .

I just finished upgrading my 13″ MBP to Mac OSX10.6 (Snow Leopard).  Initially, my impression is that it feels much faster and more polished.  I am still waiting for my other machine to finish updating (15″ MBP 1.88), which seems like it is taking forever.  I will write an update when complete.

I’m a Mac… and why MS is unbalanced

Posted on 19. Aug, 2009 by .

I have to tell you, this is my favorite “I’m a Mac..” commercial. It reminds me of my last trip to Florida when I needed to get some old RAM for a 5 year old laptop.  They no longer carried it in the big-box stores, so we ended up going to a local “Computer Repair [...]
