Tunebite!
I found this utility quite a while ago but thought I'd bring it up since I've been telling quite a few people about it lately. The program is called tunebite and for converting copy-protected music into normal MP3s it's just plain AWESOME! I use iTunes, Napster and Virgin Digital to get a lot of my music and I like putting that stuff on my [...]
Best_Buy_Reputation–;
Okay, so this pissed me off a little yesterday. I went to Best Buy to buy an XBOX 360 Wireless Adapter (and yes it's pretty damn lame that Micro$oft didn't include one with either 360 type!) and when I got to the checkout counter the dolt proceeded to tell me that they have a bunch of 360 accessories returned and would I like to buy their [...]
Creativity 50!
Wow, I got a surprise this morning when an old friend emailed me and told me that I made Creativity Magazine's Top 50 Creative People of the Past 20 Years! Nice. Whew, finally. I feel like I should be able to take a break now but there's too much fun stuff going on! My new company is doing great, the team is really gelling and working hard and [...]
CVG Interview Gone Sideways

UPDATE: CVG has made some corrections on the first part of the interview and the second part has been [...]
Proxyconn Will Amaze You
Wow, they were not lying about this one. There's a company called Proxyconn that promises DSL speed over a 56k dialup line. AND IT WORKS!! I downloaded and installed the software expecting the usual lackluster performance and a quick uninstall immediately following my test....but wow am I impressed! In the status bar area is a Proxyconn icon [...]
Happy New Year 2004
Another year is gone and in its place - A MUCH BETTER YEAR! NEW AND IMPROVED! The year 2003 was both good and bad for me as I expect it was for all of you. I'm an optimistic person to a fault and I really believe that 2004 is going to be a really great year! I'm looking forward to seeing my darling Raluca very soon and work on getting her to [...]
Trip to Romania
Bucuresti! I flew 18 hours to get to see my baby, Raluca, and it was just awesome. She is just amazing. We couldn't believe it was real when we met each other for the first time in the airport...it was like magic - I'll never forget those moments. I got to spend 9 days in Bucuresti (or Bucharest) and Raluca and I spent every second [...]
