It appears my issues with Blogger have been resolved (for the time being, anyway). I am continuing to investigate my options as far as what I might migrate the site to… But right now, I’m just happy to have this thing working again. I’ll post more later this evening.

And the Beat Goes on….
I am continually amazed at technology these days… Utilizing a doppler from StorkRadio.net, and my laptop, I was able to record (via Quicktime 7 Pro) the sound of Tyler’s heartbeat in the womb. It’s amazing… Just thought I would share it with you all… Grab the MP4 here. (2.48Mb) Grab the WAV here. (13.4Mb)
Don’t have Quicktime? Grab it here.

IMail Server 2006 Announced
I mention this because a buddy of mine (Will) works for Ipswitch, and I really like where they are taking this new version of IMail. More info on this new release can be found here.
The new version will feature a new Web Messaging client, web Administration client, and more.

Tyler, Week 33
Kim had another 3D/4D Sonogram this past weekend.Little Tyler was rather uncooperative this time. Most pictures we were able to see either had him obscuring his face somehow, or shoving his toes into his mouth.
I am continually amazed by the thought of this child that will soon come into Kim and my life. We’re truly blessed by God to have had everything go without complications so far. If all goes well, and I am praying that they will, little Tyler will come into our lives in a few short weeks.
If you’re interested, I’ve added a set of pictures from the sonogram to Flickr.
I’ll post video from the session later.UPDATE: I converted a snippet from the DVD we received from Prenatal Imaging. It’s available here for your viewing: tyler-4dsonogram-111205.mov (Quicktime 7 Required) -
20.2 Pounds and Counting
I didn’t give a weight update last week, because I was extremely disappointed with myself. I gained 8.8 pounds. :\ This week, however, I got back on track and lost 8.6 pounds, bringing my cumulative weight loss total to 20.2 pounds. This week is going to be even better, I hope. I am going to be more focused, and hope to introduce walking into my regimen to help with my weight loss. Please keep me in your prayers!

Huh? Who are you?
It’s like I fell off the face of the Earth or something…
Work’s been really busy as of late. We just hired a new jr. designer to help relieve some of the workload here at PowerServe.
I’ve been ignoring my site because I just haven’t had time to devote any time to it. Traffic has suffered as a result. C’est la vie. It happens
But fear not, I am not deceased, merely indisposed. Hopefully I will have more time to devote soon.

MeasureMap
Just got an invite to the Measure Map alpha. It’s a tracking software for blogs, developed by the fine folks over at Adaptive Path. Obviously, I’ve just signed up for it, so I really can’t say much about it at the moment. I am looking forward to seeing how well it works.

A Spooky Basecamp Theme…
Here’s a “trick” from Rbird.com’s About Design blog on how you can update the appearance of Basecamp with these treats. (Kill me for my puns, I beg you.)
I wonder if it would freak our clients out if we changed how Basecamp looked all of a sudden? Hmm….
This gives me an idea… it would be cool to provide a resource of “theme” ideas for Basecamp. I know I struggled somewhat to come up with the right color combo for the PowerServe Basecamp…
Hat tip: Signals vs. Noise

Flock has landed
Just got my grubby little hands on the Flock Developer Preview (0.4.8) and I gotta say… wow.
If I have time tomorrow, I will post screenshots. I like what I’m seeing so far. I’m not going to go so far as to say it’s a Firefox-killer or anything, but it’s definitely a great little browser.
More later. I promise. Now it’s time for bed.
Really.
No, I mean it.

Quicktime 7 Standalone Player
While checking out some of the new Movie Trailers over at Quicktime.com, I noticed Apple is now posting a link to a Quicktime 7 Standalone Player… Several of my friends have not upgraded to QT7 because Apple has bundled it with iTunes by default now. They’ll be happy to know, this is no longer the case.
So, if you’ve held off on upgrading to QT7, I urge you to reconsider… being able to watch MOV files that use the H.264 codec is more than reason enough to upgrade…
