Creative Moments / ‘Pistachio’

It’s really interesting to me how creative impulses can arrive in little, concentrated spurts. This is how ideas usually manifest themselves to me, and when they do, I like to grab ahold and just go with it. The past few days I was feeling kinda dry, creatively. Happens every once in awhile and to be …

Stretching Oneself Too Thin?

I’ve been running this weblog for a few years now and find myself contributing to more than just one… http://blogs.adobe.com/educationleaders/ and http://ctl.du.edu/techblog/ are some other weblogs that I contribute to.

Experimenting with Twitter, Again

The last time I messed around with Twitter was mid-2007. I basically used it to post little status updates a-la Facebook and experimented with the (then) newly released ActionScript 3 API. About a month into it, I got tired, deleted my account, and haven’t touched it since. Now, all of a sudden, the US media …

MAX: San Francisco is Humid

I arrived yesterday afternoon at San Francisco International. Took the BART to Powell and checked in at the Marriott. Pretty tired after the flight from Denver. SF is like Boulder on steroids crack in terms of the atmosphere and unexpectedly very hot and humid. I was going to take my longcoat but chose a small …

An Unresolved Departure

A few weeks ago, I posted the following letter to this weblog as a note of departure.  I’ve since decided that it was a poor choice, and have re-instated it here, at this new address.  I post the letter here for personal, historical reasons.  There is quite a bit of content that was lost in …

Sudden, Abrupt, Malicious Fate

I haven’t been posting much lately as I’ve taken a good, long vacation this past month.  Unfortunately, the vacation turned into a severe health crisis almost overnight and a good deal of it was spent in doctor’s offices and hospitals. It wasn’t my own ailment that caused this and all is fine now that everything …
