Today, I stopped off at the Bootup Labs/Strutta offices and did a guest spot on the couch with Jordan for a holiday edition of Couch Beers. We chatted about Jordan’s upcoming iPhone acquisition, MobileMe, steps to secure your iPhone, some of my favourite applications and a new piece of gear I just picked up (which…
I’ve had my Kia Soul for just over a month now and it’s still a fantastic car that I really enjoy driving. Kia’s done a great job at promoting this car, including this very creative video shot on the docks where my actual car would have sat before heading to Canada: and I just stumbled…
This past Friday, I was invited to attend a special media boat cruise up Indian Arm aboard the 68′ ketch, the Island Odyssey. Yeah, I know it’s my second nautical themed event this week, life is rough sometimes. The purpose of the event was to let the local community know more about Bluewater Adventures which…
Earlier this week, I had the priviledge of being invited to attend a boat cruise to help introduce Wantsa to the local social media scene. They’ve been pretty quiet about what Wantsa’s all about and then they went and hired my friend, Colleen Coplick who has the awesome title of ‘Professional Loudmouth’ for Wantsa. She’s…
I’m back at home after a whirlwind weekend in San Francisco to attend WordCamp SF 2009. It’s a one day conference for users of WordPress which is what this site is built with.

I stumbled upon a Twitter client for it called DSTwitter that is actually pretty cool: Of course, something like the iPhone…
Especially when you know where the runway service roads are.
What an epic weekend! So much going on surrounding the best little conference ever, Northern Voice. As usual, I’ll try to detail my experiences with photos and video I shot: Things kicked off Thursday at Federico’s Supper Club with the somewhat controversial (due to political sponsorship) opening dinner which was a lot of fun. It…
I came across this cool little photo frame today at Future Shop (who call it a Memorex 1.5″ Trio Digital Photo Frame). There are a ton of digital frames on the market now but this one stood out as a little different since it has three different screens that your photos show on (35mm film…
Now that the Christmas dust has settled, the turkey has been eaten and, at least in Canada, the Boxing Day/Week sales are winding down, what did you get? Any cool gadgets? My wife and I don’t exchange gifts during the holidays, we simply spoil our nieces and nephew and then get what we wanted after…
