It happens. You start something then it wallows for awhile. Such a fate has befallen this blog. I am working to restore some more daily posting habits. It won’t be easy. Baby #2 is about to enter our life, the bathroom renovation project I started in July still isn’t done (although floor tiling starts this [...]

The Red Sox are back!
The 2007 Red Sox season is underway after last night’s spring traning game against the Twins.
For some reason, NESN decided to show the game in SD (prob upconverted to HD), so the annoying 4:3 bars were up. Strangely, they had the audio in 5.1 on the HD NESN feed. I really [...]

We’ve all seen the 10000000 blog posts about Steve Jobs open letter to the music industry, suggesting that DRM be removed. What we are forgetting is that without it, we wouldn’t be where we are now.

The Dice-K express is set to roll into Fenway this year. Excellent work by the front office to get a deal done. We now know why we spent too much money on the JD Drew contract… you can take $5 million of that and tack it on to Dice-K’s contract, at least Bora$$’s take of [...]

A lot has been written about Mobile 2.0. Obviously it has a lot to do with the direction that many web 2.0 sites are taking; going from being true portals (one stop shops), to true portability sites. Have content, will travel. Making your service available on any device, anywhere seems to be a growing trend. [...]
