It's almost one week after-the-fact, and I am still on a high from the Sasquatch Music Festival. Here are the acts we saw on Saturday and Sunday. And here's Monday's lineup: Temper Trap: We didn't make it to the venue to catch the first act of the day (Mayer Hawthorne),...

With AT&T in the news yesterday, I should probably write about my thoughts on my frustrations with the service over the weekend. Because seriously, data plan price changes or not, I'm done. But if I don't start writing my band-by-band review of Sasquatch tonight, the details will slip my mind....

Kin and I just got back from the Sasquatch Music Festival. It was awesome, and I couldn't have asked for a better weekend -- in terms of the music, the venue, the company. OK, the beer situation was pretty craptastic (screw you, and your $8 PBRs!), but still... 21 bands...

Last week, I received the reminder notice from Remember the Milk that it was time to renew my premium subscription. Even though I have used RTM fairly consistently over the past year, I didn't immediately re-subscribe as I wanted to see what my options were for a task manager that...

So Mark Zuckerberg held a press conference today. He was contrite and forthcoming and apologetic. Except not really. He did introduce some changes to the Facebook privacy controls. They're simpler. You can hide the pages you've "liked." And for that, I'm happy. I'm also happy that lots of us balked...

Last week, I wrote that in the face of the overwhelming amount of social media noise, that startups would be better to establish themselves as "thought leaders" rather than try to maintain the good ol' company blog. It was a post inspired by something Stowe Boyd wrote, and it's an...

I don't feel like I was a terribly productive or successful writer this week. I spent much of the week up in Portland, which definitely disrupted my usual research/writing groove. That being said, if it was a mediocre week for writing, it was an amazing week for interacting, as I...

I've been thinking about 'zines lately, in no small part because Curt suggested we undertake a non-digital writing project. Of course, I've screwed it up already as he clearly stipulated "no digital presence" and I've just gone and blogged about the thing. Dammit. But it's not just the excitement with...

My iPhone rarely leaves my hand. I can say, with just a trace of hesitation, that it's my favorite device ever, in part because it completely transformed my communication/computing mobility. (The other part why it's my fave: it's sleek and cool.)   That being said, it's been harder and harder...

I just got off the phone with my dad. He told me that when my Uncle Jim came to visit last week, he brought a printout of one of the blog posts I'd written. And according to my dad, neither of them knew WTF I was talking about. Something about...
