Tech

Hello Loyal readers,
(Both of you. And Mom.)

I’ve decided to do a little revamping of the old website in an effort to motivate myself to write a little more often. I’ve also migrated to a new CMS

Goodbye e107. Hello WordPress.
(for now)

Please bear with me while I’m figuring the new system out. Some things aren’t migrated over yet (ex-girlfriend concentration) and others may be going away for good. If you have old bookmarks from my previous site, they will be changing soon. The old site is still there, but will not be updated or maintained. So, sit back and enjoy.

The Bitstrip Rage

It’s always frustrating when I have my best creative ideas in the shower, or in the car, or at the dentist’s office, but then draw a complete blank when sitting in front of a creative tool.

Jim Says:”Umm… I… uh. Forget it.”

Loss of a visionary

Today marked the end of an era. Apple founder Steve Jobs succumbed to pancreatic cancer early this evening. I’m not going to go on about what a great innovator and technical pioneer he was, there’s plenty of that to be had elsewhere. I will share this thought, the products he pioneered have brought tremendous joy to me both in terms of entertainment and allowing me to express my creativity. In fact, I’m writing this on one of my many Macs.

When attending my friend’s funerals, I always say “Go easy, Bro”, but that somehow doesn’t fit here, having only briefly met Steve once, just long enough to exchange a brief pleasantry. So instead, I simply wish to pay my respects and admiration and hope that the world will get to see a brilliant mind like that again in my lifetime.

Jim says “Thanks.”
