Jott is a mind boggling cool technology. I’m currently posting to my blog by calling a phone number and having it transcribe everything and stick it into a blog post. The future is here and man it’s really damn cool. listen

I jailbroke my iPhone 3G as soon as the iPhone Dev Team had posted their tool to do so, and ever since, I’ve been screwing about with the command line. There’s something deeply appealing to my inner nerd about having Unix on my phone, and recreational command line hacking is more fun for me than [...]
WordPress for iPhone is finally out, which gives me the opportunity to post random stuff from wherever I’m standing, assuming I’m standing within range of AT&T’s wireless system.
This is the kind of thing I’ve wanted for years, and though there have been ways to do this for some time now, they’ve all been too clunky, [...]
It’s long been surmised by tuners and drift racing fanatics that stickers not only add to the aesthetic of your automobile, they can actually make your car go faster. If you extend this theory a bit further, you realize that lots of stickers will turn your Honda into a hypersonic missile of cool.

I’ve been slowly warming to LiveJournal, not because I love its interface or features, but because I have a number of friends over there I keep tabs on. I post infrequently enough to this blog, and coming up with more posts to put in a LJ seems far-fetched, at best.

There are three strips of 520 that have newer pavement on them, laid sometime last summer. They really do make a difference in tire hiss as you drive across them. Assuming traffic is moving in the morning, I get a couple minutes of blessed silence from the road as I drive across asphalt rubber [...]
Ah, spring in Seattle. The flowers are blooming. The trees are turning green. The birds are singing. The snow is accumulating.
Yes, snow. Last I checked the calendar, we’re in the latter half of April, and the magnolia in the front yard has a dusting of snow on its new blossoms. The drive home this evening [...]
Near-constant discussion of City of Heroes / City of Villains on IRC over the last couple of days has chipped away at my will, and I nabbed the Good Versus Evil Edition from the local Gamestop for twenty bucks. I gave up on City of Heroes some time ago, getting bored at level 24 on [...]
It’s shocking how bad the Windows Mobile browser is. Not only has it taken vast amounts of time waiting for pages to load, I’m not entirely certain I’m entering this in the correct part of the WordPress interface. Regardless of whether or not the post even appears, I won’t be able to read it, because [...]
