It is the holidays and with holidays comes family. One of the questions I get asked every year is, “what is your major?” Another question, when they hear i work with “computers” is how I keep up with technology. It appears to them that this is something that I am actively doing, but really it is more passive at this point. Used to I would watch TechTV, but now I subscribe...

At MaxFunCon 2011…
My lifeless body was in the arms of Davin Pavlas as he buried me in the ground and ripped my heart out. I magically came back to life to shovel shit for a living even though all I wanted to do with my life was, against my father’s wishes, to sell insurance. I also learned which pizza joint makes the best marijuana pizza. And this was all in Jordan Morris’ beginner improv class! You...

Elements
When I download a new application I like to explore the application. It is like an adventure game to find every nook and cranny, observe every setting. When given a new notebook I will think about if I should dedicate it to a certian topic or put everything in it.

Flickr is still insanely great today, but the introduction of Twitter and sharing photos with friends instantly has overtaken it on the mobile side. This is where Instagram comes in. Think of it as Twitter for images, instead of text. You follow people,...

All the Apps* →
I started a blog where I discuss great iPhone and iPad apps that you can drive off the lot today! If you could follow it on Tumblr that would be awesome, because for some (real) reason I am being graded by how well I can develop an audience on short notice.

One of my favorite things in all the Internet is podcasts. I love podcasts. I love them so much I attended the first ever live Diggnation in Chattanooga, TN and went to MaxFunCon at Lake Arrowhead, CA.

Instapaper
Have you ever came across something on the Internet you wanted to read but did not have the time? What about a long car ride with nothing to do? With Instapaper you can mark articles posted to the Internet to read later. Instapaper will download the articles to your iPhone or iPad and strip out all of the things that are not related to the article you want to read. This application was made by...
