Airplanes

By Thursday, July 29, 2010 0 Permalink 0

Last night I had one of my reoccurring nightmares (sadly I have a few that repeat) In this dream I was a witness to planes whose engines were failing in mid-flight and I seem to be the only one that hears and sees them come crashing back down to Earth. The scenery of these dreams is always different and the planes vary, but the crashes are always the same and always terrifying. Anyways that dream has had me thinking about airplanes all day, which got the BOB song (featuring Hayley Williams) of the same name stuck in my head. So I thought I would share it with everyone: 

DuckDuck Deal in Boulder

So I am trying to get back into blogging. My friend Joel wrote a post on his company's blog that inspired me to try to get back into writing (and hopefully publishing) for my blog. What better to start with than to write about my experience with a local company DuckDuck Deal. They have been around since April 6th and while I knew about them back in April, I didn't use them until last week. To be honest I had kind of forgotten about DuckDuck Deal despite having their iPhone app installed on my phone (I have 10 pages of apps...I know, I know). I will admit that ...

Today is one of those days where you cannot believe anything you hear, see or read on the internet. I am tempted to just turn off Twitter and ignore the internet all day. That being said, I do love Google's new name! And Google's mobile location finding service: And of course the vowel outage:

Thanks to Netflix and Wii for making it an extremely simple process to update my Wii to allow for Netflix streaming. After popping in the DVD from Netflix, making sure the Wii was on wifi and waiting for an update, all that was left was to enter a code from the tv into my Netflix profile. After that my Wii was ready to go!

Adding alerts for specific contacts on a Blackberry

By Saturday, February 20, 2010 0 Permalink 0

I recently traded in my 6 month old Palm Pre for the new Blackberry Tour. The Pre just did not stand up to my standards of a smart phone and became too slow for me to use for anything (I came to loathe that phone so quickly). Before the Pre I had the older World Blackberry 8830, so I knew that I could count on it to do what I needed (email, texts, aim, gchat, twitter and phone calls) without slowing the whole phone down. It took  me a few weeks to get all of the alerts back to what they were on my old Blackberry because ...

New Years Resolutions

By Thursday, January 7, 2010 0 Permalink 0

That is not really the right title for this post, but it is January and I am attempting to get more exercise, so it seemed fitting. No this post is not about my resolution to buy more boots/shoes (although I do need a pair of brown boots), but about my attempt to get more exercise. Within the last few months Matt had started taking the bus to Pearl Street to work everyday, and would get off the bus early and take some time to walk a few blocks. It was then that I started to realize that I really do not walk enough throughout my day.  I walk around the office, ...
