Help pick my CHI schedule

Thursday, April 6th, 2006

CHI2006, the conference on human factors in computing systems, has released a final schedule [pdf]. I will be attending the event and I wanted to give you, my loyal (and not so loyal) readers, a chance to let me know if there’s anything at the conference you think I should attend.

FAQ Update

Saturday, March 25th, 2006

This is just a quick note that I’ve renamed “Jabber FAQ for the Mac OS X Tiger User” to simply the Jabber in iChat FAQ.

Personal Project Site

Monday, February 20th, 2006

I’ve put together a standalone personal project site to make things easier for people who only care to find out about those sorts of things. Feel free to suggest ways I could make it better.
Why do you care? It will be a compendium of information on Gabber and my Cocoa Pie Menu. I swear that […]
