A Day in the Life of an Internet Tablet
While I’m writing this in Notes application instead of Blogger, I’m impressed with my new Internet Tablet. Not as powerful when not tethered to the seamy underbelly of the Internet, the N810 performs well as a handheld computing device. Even the thumb keyboard is quite comfortable. The device can seem a bit heavy at times.…

Waiting for Maemo
Last Thursday I got the chance to play with a Nokia N810 at the TigerDirect store in Mississauga. A pretty nifty device, but the price was not so nifty. So I ordered one via the Web. And hopefully it’ll arrive sometime today. Yay! My initial review (after using for a few minutes) is that the…

Open Source Palm-Desktop Groupware
I recently discovered the comfort of using groupware, to organize all my communication and email needs. I never used a groupware application before, so maybe I am just realizing the potential of such software. But I am getting ahead of myself. I commute to university the majority of the time. This means 3-4 hours on…

Success! I need to download and install a newer version of kpilot (fortunately in a Ubuntu deb). Now everything works. Except the Palm email, but that I can look at another day. Bug 66313

Kontacts, Palms & Course Juggling
Greetings again! 6 days into a brand new year 2007, and I am starting to feel the ominous feeling of stress. Without getting into details, things are not working out as planned, backup plans seem to backfire and a tense atmosphere has enveloped my personal life. Fortunately I have 359 days left to make up.…

Update for February 26, 2006
Good morning. The sun is shining brightly, its brilliance reflected off the snow. The sky is a nice light blue gradient, and is cloudless. I’m in a pretty good mood as well. Actually I don’t have too much time to write this, as the time to leave to church is approaching rapidly. So will be…

One More Turn To Take
The purplish sand dunes flashed by as he accelerated his blue mlaren down the course. The magenta sky and the orange-yellow gas giant hung above him in a surreal but serene manner. One more sharp turn, he thought quietly to himself. The race had been a hard one, but now only a few more minutes…

Paper Blogs in the Morning’s Gloom
Its raining again. This is not at all unwelcome or surprising. Most people despise rainy days. I don’t. The gray cloudy skies above enhance the colors of the land below by throwing them against a canvas of clouds. Sure I get headaches sometimes with the changing pressure. Still a little bit of pain and discomfort…

Out of the Abyss and into the Clouds Again
Hello, hello again, dear reader and fellow blog-journeyer. Finally had the heart to write an entry again. The last few days since the last entry and this one, I had a bout of depression arising from an all time low self-esteem and self-worth. Today, when I got up to work today I thought today would…

Last Work Night Week
Yay!!! My last week of nights begins today. Wow this summer did go by fairly fast. And unproductively (on the part of my pet projects). But that is about to change. As for house work today: washed dishes, dug a frozen dinner out of the freezer, and cut the hedge (really proud of that last…
