I’m spending a good amount of time the next few days preparing to leave Denver for San Fransisco and Adobe MAX 2008. This will be my fist MAX and will hopefully be a really nice experience with no mishaps along the way. I’m speaking on a project of mine during the FITC unconference on Wednesday […]
I recently picked up a DropBox invite from Richard Davies (thanks Richard!) and the service is an unbelievably nice experience. I’ve got it linked to a few of my machines and it makes file sync very, very easy. If you are unaware of what DropBox is, I’d suggest having a quick look at their overview

I’m really excited about a lot of developments that have been happening over the past few weeks and into the next few months! This has prompted me to resurrect this website and begin posting again. So… just a quick notification that the site will be updated soon with the expectation of regular, informative, and hopefully
I’m really not one for posting random thoughts all over the place- but it is interesting to think over some of my activities while on parental leave one year ago and contrast that with what life is like now- how things stand and where things are going. Work at DU is good. It’s been very

My official title at DU has been changed to Senior Multimedia Application Developer– very nice! This new title is much more reflective of what I do on a day-to-day basis and I’m very pleased with the designation of “senior”- an indicator of my years of experience working in this field.

Since reading this announcement on the Google Gears API Blog last evening, I’ve been wondering to myself (from time-to-time) how this would/could/will apply to the Apollo runtime.

There is an article in the ‘Featured’ section of the University of Denver student newspaper ‘The Clarion’ this week. The article is entitled “Program improves media, audio in classrooms” and goes into a lot more detail than previous articles in other publications. A lot of emphasis is placed on fair use and student access to

It was raining the entire evening so I left for Boulder fairly early. I actually arrived at the planetarium (the entire conference was inside a planetarium!) 20 minutes early and they hadn’t even begun setting up the registration tables. So I just hung back and had a look at all the materials posted along the

So I am back from the VRA conference in Kansas City, MO. I have to say that this was the absolute worst travel experience I’ve ever had. Not because of the conference itself, or the hotel, or anything like that- mostly just because I was sick the entire time and having a head cold while
