August 12-17: Running & Cycling in Birmingham

A busy, but good week. I finally bought an HDTV, a 37LG30, a 37" diagonal LCD at 720p. We had an Olympics party last night and the wife wanted a good viewing. We went with the this model because it was available, fit in our cabinet, and had a better picture that comparable sized TV's we looked at. So, far, so good. The party went well too.

Adam Curry has basically turned the Daily Source Code into conspiracy theory central. What a shame! I miss the tech talk and just general all around notes about his life. This conspiracy crap, for me, is just noise. But, it is his show and I have a fast forward button.

Work has me diving into more low level code than I get to which is exciting for me. So, I'm learning more directly about JavaServer Faces, Dojo, and Ajax.

I listened to these podcasts:Data
