Steve Jobs sets insane goals..

..or he’s not telling us something. If the multi-year exclusive agreement is true, then the goals are probably unachievable. In the keynote yesterday, Jobs put out there that almost a billion phones are sold each year to consumers. Granted, most of these are regular phones without the whiz-bang and special features of [...]

Why the iPhone is the next iPod.

It’s not the reason that you think. Sure, it includes a bunch of iPod functionality, but that’s not what I’m referring to. Not the least of which is, absolutely everyone is talking about this device. I haven’t seen this much buzz over a device in a long time.

It all started near the beginning of this week when I started to look into her machine. It had been loud for a while, and was being unreliable in [...]

These are just a couple of my cravings

Food has always been a source of contention for me when I am trying to lose weight. I never want to restrict the types of food - I’ve spent a long time working out what I like and dislike. One of the benefits of the Hacker’s Diet isn’t all that concerned with [...]

She keeps a picture of me

This is a picture of me before I started this whole diet watching and exercising regimen. Hopefully I will be able to take regular pictures that can document my progress. This is one thing which I don’t plan on doing very regularly, maybe every two or three months. Pictures have been [...]
