6 years, 6 months, 11 days…

Friday, February 11th, 2005

well.. i think that’s what the official count is… after 6 years, 6 months and 11 days of working here at mySimon (and then CNET),, i have decided to move on… it’s been quite a trip… thanks for all the memories, mySimon… i’ve been keeping a mySimon archive since we started back in 1998 — it’s wonderful looking back through the years at all of the changes that we’ve been through..

As long as I’m on a nostalgic kick, check this out — back in the summer of ’95, i started keeping a daily list of “sites that dennis found”. i had a pretty regular readership… as soon as school started back up, i stopped updating it. oops. i guess i should have started a company or something back then.. haha. oh well.

Anyway… drinks at thirsty bear in 26 minutes!!!

google maps..

Monday, February 7th, 2005

google does maps now… and from what i can see right now, it does it very, very well.. it’s super fast, the maps scroll when you click-and drag.. and it has local data integrated with a wonderfully clean looking UI. masnick thinks that this is just like keyhole, with maps. now… if i could only flip to the keyhole view… so so cool..

google has successfully trained me to search for an address in google to get to maps.. so all they have to do now is fully integrate this maps link, and voila.

haha… google labs has this launching on 2/8/2005.. i’ve beat THEM by 6 minutes!!! w00t!

but yah, this is by far the nicest looking map site to date…

E-A-G-L-E-S… EAGLES!!

Monday, February 7th, 2005

so i watched the game at kezar pub yesterday.. we got there at 11am (4 hours before kickoff).. we got ourselves a sweet table in the middle of the action, and gorged ourselves on buffalo wings and coors light in an icy eagles bucket. my cousin stephanie was the only patriots fan in the whole establishment, so while she quietly cheered her team to victory, the rest of the bar was full of rowdy hope…

it was a great game.. and i think the energy of the bar was captured in this video.. aj’s friend vince took the movie footage, and i assembled it with muvee, of course..

good times.. good times.. aj says that there will be a rematch next year.. same teams, and the eagles will emerge victorious..

no more vinyl records by 2009

Friday, January 28th, 2005

so.. it looks like us wax slingers will be SOL by 2009… the petroleum byproducts needed to make vinyl will no longer be produced by 2009… guess i’ll have to step up my goal to convert all my vinyl to mp3

me, according to business.com
