I’ve only ever once used the official wordpress app on my iPod touch, and this post makes it twice. I really do want to like this app but I can’t help but feel there are some things lacking about it. One thing I pick up on right away is the fact it doesn’t list all … More WordPress App on the iPod Touch.
Since the completion of my new mash tun my desire to homebrew has been back on the rise. Over the years it’s come and gone. There have been periods where I was making a couple beers every month. Then suddenly I’d go half a year without brewing. I’m sure there were any number of factors … More The Art of the Brew
Recently on Lifehacker and a couple of other sites that I read regularly they had been talking about your online identity. Who you are when someone types your name in to a search engine. I’m sure you’ve tried it, most people have done what has been referred to as “vanity Googling”. While vanity, or some level of curiosity may be the motivating factor behind people searching their own name online, it actually is something everyone should try. Why? Simple, so that you can be aware of how you are being presented should someone search your name. That someone could be a potential employer, client, date, or any number of other people you’ve come in contact with. If you don’t know what the search engines reveal about you, you could be in for a nasty surprise. … More Taking Control of Your Online Identity
All the parts arrived over the weekend for my new mash tun. My old setup was a five gallon cooler with a half-assed home made false bottom and some plastic fitting. Not at all an ideal setup, but did a decent enough job for partial-mash stuff. Still I had been itching to get back to … More Big Orange Mash Tun
It appears I fell victim to an SQL injection hack on this website. From the looks of it, it either happened late last night or early this morning. I actually only caught it as quick as I did because my page was loading so slowly I checked to see what the hang up was and … More Damn, I Got Pwn’d!
Before the construction began I was worried that Gabriel would have problems with all the banging and assorted symphony of power tool noises. I was wracking my brains to come up with places to go to give him a reprieve from all the chaos. If anything, he’s been dealing with it better than I have. … More Baby in a Construction Site.
I’ve always known that whoever did the additions to this house in the 80’s had no clue what they were doing. I don’t know whether they were some sort of incompetent contractor, or some do it yourself yahoo who was reaching way too far with their ability. I’ve cursed their unknown names like some religious mantra, almost … More Never a Dull Moment When they Remodel Your House.
My old theme had a couple minor glitches with the newest incarnation of Wordpress. Nothing major, but enough for me to decide I had used it for awhile and was ready for a change. I’ve had a bit of a minimalism kick lately and decided to aim for a more clean layout. Find one I liked and have been doing a couple extra nip and tucks to it in order to really call it my own. Once I create a new banner graphic for it everything will be full steam ahead! … More My Blog, Now with More Minimalism.
Denise and I didn’t decide to have a baby lightly. To be honest it took me awhile to warm up to the idea at all. It’s safe to say that babies have always petrified me. Small kids, yeah, not so much of those either. I’ve always had a tough time around them, and until Gabriel was born I had never actually held a baby before. Nuts, I know, but there it is. … More Whatever you Think, You’re Never Ready.
Well Apple’s Safari web browser just got updated today. Safari 5 first became available via Apple’s software update and now is live on their website as well. There had been rumors swirling about that perhaps the new version of the web browser would be announced at WWDC. It may not have been part of Job’s iPhone 4 super fan party, but word of it did slip out quietly later in the day. … More Apple Releases Safari 5
