Now you can have your own!

I sure hope I can get some of these at work. Maybe if I work REALLY hard!

What good is it? Tons.

I got this app back in 2006 as part of the first MacHeist bundle. I thought then, “Hmm, kinda cool I guess.” But as my life has become even more mobile with the use of my iPhone, I quickly realized the need to keep my passwords, and other important info with me where ever I go. A cursory Google search revealed not a WHOLE lot that synced with my mac. 1Password came up on the list as a piece of software that syncs sensitive info between mac and iPhone. I’ve been using it all day today. It’s great. Check it out.

Hey, what a great opportunity to help with future Wordpress usability. Head on over and take the survey.

Well, like my wife said, this may just be what I needed to convince her I needed the 3G iPhone to hopefully be released next week. Until then…I’m sporting a little Samsung phone she used to use. This is shaping up to be a great week.

Oh, and by the way, the people bought the boat.

Was watching some MacGyver today. Check out this phone! Kinda off topic I guess. But still kinda deals with technology. Sure would like to see what kind of web hosting this guy does. Amazing.

So, me and a friend were talking about Carbon Footprints. He drives about 110 miles roundtrip every day. That just seems crazy to me. I did it for about a year, but quickly realized that the 10 hours a week spent in the car was worth moving over.

Anyways, I’ve purchased a new home, and am trying to rent out my current place. I live about 1/2 a mile from work. So that means I’m driving, on average, one mile per day. Let’s do the math:

Let’s say you have a car that gets about 30 miles per gallon, and you pretty much just drive to work and back (stopping on the way at the local grocery store, etc). So, you’re doing 5 days a week times 4 weeks equals 20 days you’re driving to work. So, theoretically you could go all month on a gallon of gas. Let’s then say that you have about a 13 gallon tank. So…how does going a year on a tank of gas sound?

It, of course, never works out that way. But it sounds good. There are people who get to walk to work. I guess I would if it wasn’t 98 degrees every day in the summer. Nothing like feeling like you’ve sat in a sauna all day THEN going to work.

So, I’ll be putting it through it’s paces over the next few weeks. Mere promises you say? Perhaps. A cursory look at the sporadic nature of my blog will quickly reveal my level of dedication. I need some motivation really. Maybe the idea of getting to try out cool software (web and desktop) will be enough to persuade me to write more.

This is shaping up to be a great piece of software.

I was just thinking how Busy Sync would be my choice to sync calendars between iCal and Google Calendar. Well, with the 2.0 release of Spanning Sync, they bring on the contact syncing!

This rocks. Now all my contacts are synced up, and it’s two-way capable.

Yeah, you could call it that. But let’s look at three alternatives:

Frugal. Innovative. Universal.

In any event, here’s my online Christmas card. Never let it be said that Jesse Haynes doesn’t care about the environment. Perhaps this electronic Christmas card will play a small role in the ongoing initiative to save the rain forests.
