Just make this annoying thing go away.
I grabbed this screenshot from a TED talk by Richard St-John, who made it his job several years ago to interview as many successful people as possible. With its 3 minutes of length, the talk is highly worth watching, of course, but I’ve kept this screenshot on my desktop now, and open it every little [...]
Life without Sirius has me listless. It was one of my projects where I had a regular deadline. Without it, life is a bit more like limbo. After my capoeira class oday, I spent wandering downtown Austin, wasting time on the web, etc. It’s strange to be on your own schedule, working at pretty much [...]
Big news of the day: Podshow and Sirius have officially ended their contract together, starting May 1st. I just got the email yesterday. What does this mean for me? For those of you that didn’t know, my podcast is/was syndicated onto satellite radio every Friday, which was pretty cool. It led me to produce shows [...]
Though the keyboard will get dirty quickly, my new Macbook is pretty cool. I basically got it for the extra-large hard drive (160 GB) and battery life. I’m terrible at plugging my computer in. As bonus links, here were two great blog posts about quitting by Rick Schwartz and Seth Godin. No, I’m not quitting [...]
I was feeling flabby, so I joined a gym recently here. This morning, I found out how they answer the phone: “Hi, welcome to Gold’s Gym, how can we change your life today?” This girl that answered, I know her– she’s the pregnant girl that works at the front desk, really friendly girl. But hearing [...]
How to subscribe. Yeah really, that’s what this episode is about. For real. Inspired by the confessional work of Jonathan Ames, whose stories I find hilarious. [Audio clip: view full post to listen] Direct download link
We saw this thing in downtown Austin last night… it’s kind of cute.
Hugh blogs about how the Canadian mobile industry is stiffing us. Check the graph below. My comment about this: The mobile industry in Canada is closer to a monopoly than almost any other first-world country, and they like it that way. I just bought a Virgin phone to get an Austin, TX number– it cost [...]
When I got How the Best Get Better in the mail from Amazon, I have to say, I doubted the recommendation Mitch Joel had given me. The book is 50 pages long, it comes with 2 CDs, and it was 45 bucks. I felt ripped. I’m now halfway through the audio, and I have to [...]
Just booked a flight to NYC for the weekend. 950 people have signed up. I have to see it. Here’s a picture in case you’re looking for me this weekend:
Yet another reason why black people are cooler than white people, this time straight from Sa-Ra Creative Partners. That’s right, it’s a Green Lantern mask. (I picked this up from a Garbege newsletter. I seriously don’t know what to think anymore.)
Scott Sigler‘s novel Ancestor, out today on paperback, has just hit #7 on the Amazon Top 100. It just sold out– and I got the last copy. :) What a great world we live in that this dude, one of the hardest working people in our industry, can reach the same levels as Harry Potter [...]
