Nike+ – Getting Started
This morning marked my first official walk with Nike+. I have added a new page to the site utilizing widgets from NikePlus.com showing my goals and last 5 runs/walks. Initially, I’ve set the following goals for myself: Walk 100 miles in 16 weeks. Walk at least 50 times in the next 16 weeks. Burn at…

Nike + iPod
Scott and Patrick have Nike+ for their iPod nanos, and recently started competing against each other via NikePlus.com. Kim’s had an iPod nano for a little while now. I’ve thought about getting Nike+ for it for some time, but never acted on it. Then Mike made me an offer I couldn’t refuse: If I got…

The Price of Fuel
I drive a lot. I commute 50+ miles a day, and I fill-up my GMC Sierra 1500 with gas at least once a week. Ever since Sidebar Creative’s MyMileMarker.com was released, I’ve been using it to keep track of my fuel usage. It is the first solution that I’ve stuck with to keep track of…

Pardon the Dust (again)
Sorry for the light posting, yet again. Between work and other things going on in my life, I’ve hardly had time to devote to the site. I’ve been fixing some longstanding issues with the site over the past couple of days. The site should now work fine in all modern browsers. I noticed some issues…

First Impressions on Habari
I downloaded and installed the newly released Habari 0.2 Developer Review on a test domain, and I’m impressed. Setup took less time than a typical WordPress install. Importing posts, pages and comments from my existing WP site took only a few moments. While I don’t think I’ll be making the switch to Habari just yet,…

He mentioned it to me for the first time tonight, and I took a look at it. Sure enough… most of the time I hit the B button, it would shut itself off.…

Webmaster Jam Session 2007
I got the go ahead last week to register for Webmaster Jam Session 2007! I’m really looking forward to attending the two-day conference. (I don’t get to leave the office all that often.) The speakers list is impressive! There’s going to be so much going on… so much to learn. I’m especially looking forward to…

Year Three
It’s not a huge deal, but I like to keep track of this sort of stuff… Yesterday marked my three-year anniversary at PowerServe. Since graduating high school in 1996, I’ve worked ten different jobs. I spent, on average, about 17.7 months at each job. Early on, many of the jobs I had only lasted around…

Help Me Help You
So, here’s the thing… I don’t want the site to grow any more stagnant that it already has been over the past few weeks, so I need some of your feedback. What do you think I could/should do to improve this site? Are there any specific areas of the site or topics of interest that…
