We are rapidly clsoing in on Spring and thus the rate of outdoor projects is scaling up. One of the projects I have been putting off is clearing the front pasture of all the downed trees the previous owner pushed down with a bull dozer. This hasn’t been for a lack of interest, but rather…

Sitting on the plane now, so just a quick post from my Blackberry before they close the boarding door. I’m on my way up to Boston for a PLM industry analyst’s show. It’s usually an interesting show becuase the lead analyst (and owner of the firm) has some odd power over all the CEOs of…

I just picked up a Logitech Logitech® Cordless Presenter and added it to my gadget bag. It’s a little larger than I thought it would be, but I was looking for a bluetooth mouse for my HP TC1100 and I also needed a wireless presentation system. This is all of that and more, with an…

I am currently trialing a JCV Gantt Pro which in addition to being a great ink enabled project management tool (in fact I think it is the only ink enabled project management tool) it has great integration with Mind Manager.  In the past 4 months Mind Manager has moved to the front and center position…

Well after what seemed like an eternity, I finally have everything back in place to be running this site.  The crtical missing piece had been high speed internet access to my house, which has been installed for a week now.  It took a ditch witch (and there is a reason they call those things witches),…
