I drove around 900 miles this Christmas driving around the state, with stops in Carmichael, Walnut Creek, Moraga, Fresno, and San Luis Obispo (well, to start and stop the trip ...

We're doing a rough batch of integration and regression testing on our app. I've been fixing bugs, which have me dabbling in various parts ...

This is the first of a two-part series about WWDC. This part will focus solely on my activities at WWDC 2005, the second part will be a pundit-like reaction to the news that Apple is switching to Intel-based processors. So, here we go.

I've come to the conclusion that studying in a coffee shop is highly conducive to doing work- although, not conducive to saving money.
