What’s an architect?
16 Feb 2007I am fascinated by architecture and design. I have no idea how an architect does what an architect does. I can truly say that I have not knowingly met an architect in person.
How lame is that?

Of course data security is (NOT) important in the US

15 Feb 2007James Governor of RedMonk covers the serious fine Nationwide just got in the UK. [HERE and original post HERE]
This post immediately left me with the feeling (and it’s an oogie feeling) that the country in which I reside is completely borked when it comes to data security.

On February 3, Joi Ito published a snippet that opened some people’s eyes to [...]
Fear and Loathing in Cameos
8 Feb 2007I finally watched the movie version of Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas yesterday. Not bad, considering that the movie has been out for 9 years.
