Edward Tufte Likes his iPhone

Wednesday, January 23rd, 2008

Edward Tufte displayed how the iPhone resolves the small screen display issue. The coolest part of it all, is that his phone is jailbreaked, that’s impressive.

p.s. I’m working on a overhaul of this little blog and I expect to write in it more often. This last year has been pretty intense, but some of my time has been freed up.

Lazy on the Blog

Wednesday, December 20th, 2006

I’ve been pretty lazy with my blog posts lately. I’m currently on vacation chilling out so I decided to write something here. I just got back from a Business/Leisure trip to Upstate NY, Connecticut and NYC. We held out second internal Hack Day at IBM on the 15th, and I was part of the team organizing and developing the infrastructure for it. After Hack Day, I spent the weekend in NYC with my sister. Basically we walked a lot in Manhattan and saw Spamalot, which was awesome. Now I’m home, on vacation, slacking off :)

What a few days

Friday, November 3rd, 2006

Long story short, I’m an uncle, two months early. The good news is, it seems like the worst is behind us, the baby looks fine and she’s breathing on her own, the mother is doing great too and ecstatic that her baby is doing well. Grandma arrived today, and she too is incredibly happy, dad is relieved and ecstatic also. Granpa comes in on wednesday, someone will be spoiled and Uncle, well, what can I say, it’s been a stressful few days, but I’m certain the baby is going to be one helluva bundle of joy.

Ratatat @ Emos

Monday, October 2nd, 2006

On Thursday we went to see Ratatat at Emos. We first discovered these guys during the summer of 2004 at a The Killers show at Stubbs Indoors (This is quite a small venue which is weird since around August The Killers blew up and the only thing you’d here on was “Somebody Told Me” or “Mr. Brightside”). They were one of the opening bands and we really liked their music, quickly after I got their first album and was saddened quickly by the lack of more of their music. Recently they released their new album “Classics” which met my expectations fully, it was more music that sounded exactly the same as the first album.

For this show we were expecting it to be mildly populated, not empty but not exactly busting at its seams and we also were expecting it to be kind of mellow since Ratatat is not exactly Rocking music. Well I am surprised to say that we were wrong at both counts, the show was actually really full and they actually rocked pretty hard. At the right moments during most of their songs they just went crazy and rocked the place. It was a great show and lots of fun. Pics on flickr
