It was a banner year for trick-or-treating in the Kailua area. We had 25 kids come by the house! Though about half of the tricksters were either in high school or maybe even college.
Didn’t see any great costumes. Maybe the best was a Fred and Wilma Flintstone.

Read about how a harmless hobby of blogging consumed the time of a Wall Street Journal tech writer covering the New York Mets.
Kinda similar story for most folks starting out with blogging I would assume. And yeah, blogging does take time.
Interesting to hear how their readership numbers ballooned so quickly. The trio of [...]
After learning about the Top 10 Design Mistakes for Blogs and seeing the changes made on CCTWT, I figured I should make some improvements to Pulpconnection.
Added a picture of me and Merynn under the About section. I had also changed the tagline earlier in the week to better describe what I usually write about. [...]

Someone’s list of free software (for the Mac) to use with your iPod.
Ultimate Freeware Package for your iPod.
Personally, I purchased iPodRip from The Little App Factory to manage my music on different computers.

This time, here are videos showing you how to backup DVDs to your Mac or to your iPod.
Is it me or is the video iPod causing a stir? There’s been so many articles about getting your own videos on to the new iPod. Looks like the making of the next killer app?

Attended the seminar The 8th Habit: From Effectiveness to Greatness led by Dr. Stephen R. Covey himself. His son, Stephen M.R. Covey, also presented “Leading at the Speed of Trust” in the afternoon session. (There are five generations of Stephen Covey FYI).
The seminar was pretty good although I thought the material was soft [...]
