While I was taking this photo on Cook Street last night, a girl came up from behind and started talking to me. At least I think she was talking to me – I wasn’t really listening because I didn’t think she was talking to me. But when I turned around to see what was going […]

ucluelet detour
Thanks to those who came out to my birthday-show last weekend at Sunset, and also thanks to the performers who did a great job, and Jason @ Sunset for putting it all together. A great way to celebrate another trip around the sun! Reading Malcolm Gladwell’s latest, Outliers right now. Not too much to say […]
why does Rogers charge for caller ID?
I recently axed all the features from my Rogers cell phone plan. No data plan (internet is a bit of a joke on this Sony Ericsson phone really), no voicemail, no caller ID, no evening and weekends, no texting plans or bundles or value packs or anything like that. Just me, the system access fee, […]

Photos from the GDC AGM 2009
On Thursday evening, we caught a flight from Victoria to Calgary, had a short layover and took off for Winnipeg – we arrived 20 minutes early. The Winnipeg airport has a sign that proclaims “WINNIPEG WELCOMES THE WORLD.” It’s very retro. It reminds me of being very young and seeing 70s stuff everywhere. All that […]

I haven’t had a chance to really leave the hotel in the daytime yet, but I hope to do that today before we take off this afternoon when we return back to Victoria.
Live from the GDC AGM in Winnipeg
I’m at the GDC AGM in Winnipeg, getting a sense of the pulse of the organization at a national level. There’s a lot of productive dialogue going on regarding communications, the web, and moving the organization forward in a sustainable way outside of the web. I’ll be doing a tutorial later this afternoon on the […]
