  • New Digs

    If you’re seeing this, it means you’re seeing my new, migrated site. I realized that I wasn’t really using any of the extra features that Squarespace was affording me, and while they have given me great service (and I love their stats package), it was time to minimize my outlay to my various service providers.

  • Roger Ebert dead at 70

    He wrote reviews for The Chicago Sun-Times for 46 years. I grew up with him and Siskel on PBS. He was the critic I trusted the most. I will miss his passion for what he did. I will miss his writing, ever entertaining, even when he hated the film. I will miss his rice cooker recipes. He was my favourite.

  • Objective-C on Twitter

    I run the @objectivec account on twitter, aggregating many RSS feeds of developers and other Mac/iOS/Cocoa/Objective-C development blogs.

    That’s it. Just wanted to note that. If you want to be added or removed (or have suggestions for same), get in touch.

  • Receipts, Neat and Otherwise, on Mountain Lion

    I have an old Neat Receipts scanner Scanalizer. I also have a Mac. Unfortunately, it seems that Neat Receipts may abandoning the Mac market with the release of their Neat 5 software, as it still only works on Windows (so far), and the Mac Neat 4 software still doesn’t work correctly on Mountain Lion. (This […]
