Bare bones? You got it. Tersus is an achingly simple WordPress theme without all the usual cruft.

Dear Microsoft, Last year, you introduced Windows Internet Explorer 7 (IE7) upon the world. Designers everywhere celebrated the fact that you had finally stepped up to the standards plate. IE7 isn’t perfect, but it’s much better than what we had to work with. Pretty soon, Outlook 2007 will be moved out of beta. One might assume … Read the rest of this item

Nothing kills productivity like a Keynote. Seriously. Apple finally delivered an iPhone. Well, delivered is a bit of a stretch considering it won’t be until June 2007 before it will start hitting the shelves in Apple and Cingular stores. While I am really excited about the iPhone, and glad it’s finally here, I can’t help … Read the rest of this item
If you’re like me and can’t wait to get the play-by-play on what’s going down at the MacWorld Expo, here are some sites where you’ll be able to get updates (via Glenn Wolsey). I’ll be checking in on MacRumors and Engadget, and will try to copy over some of the updates here as they occur. … Read the rest of this item

I’ve been having some odd server issues since yesterday. MySQL has stopped responding a couple of times. So if my site goes offline for some reason, or you see a database error when visiting the site, this is likely the cause of it. Hopefully I can get the issue diagnosed and resolved over the weekend, … Read the rest of this item

This is the latest release in our stable 2.0 line, which we’ve committed to maintaining for several more years. Here’s what’s new: The aforementioned security … Read the rest of this item
I am so glad I started reading John Nack’s blog. Early this morning he confirmed that the Adobe Photoshop CS3 Beta can, in fact, be tested on both Macs and PCs by the same user. In response to very popular demand (to the tune of 150+ requests on the Labs CS3 forum), I’m happy to … Read the rest of this item

I’ve tried, unsuccessfully, in the past to mount more than one iPod via iTunes and it’s never worked. For some reason, this morning I am able to. I’m running iTunes 7.0.2.16 on Windows XP SP2. All three iPods are connected via USB2. The 20Gb 4th Generation iPod and 80Gb 5.5 Generation iPod video both have … Read the rest of this item

This is a really eye-opening article in the New York Times on the rush to execute Saddam Hussein. I’ve got mixed emotions on Saddam’s execution. On one hand, I feel like man should not take death into his own hand. Yes, Saddam committed atrocities against the people of Iraq. Yes, Saddam was an insane dictator. … Read the rest of this item
Tomorrow I go back to work after ten straight days of being off. I haven’t had a “vacation” quite like this in some time. It was much needed though. I think I need to try and make it a point to schedule more time off throughout the year instead of waiting until the very end.
I’ve had a MeasureMap for nearly as long as they’ve been in beta. It’s a great statistical tool that’s not received a lot of attention, short of when it was first launched and when Google subsequently bought them. My site doesn’t get a lot of traffic, but December 2006 was the best month I have … Read the rest of this item
