Yes, I will be at GDC. Most of my time will be in meetings as we work on an upcoming project. However, as I always do, I am open to sitting down with just about everyone in the industry. From fans to interested future employees, it’s all fair game. So, if you are interested in […]
The move is almost done. We’ve got a few things left to move… and a lot of stuff set up. The problem is the drive. Things have to stay operational, so it had to be done in chunks. Each drive is a five hour round-trip trek between Sacramento and Silicon Valley. Add in sleep… plus […]
The move, that is. I’ll be rather unavailable for the next week, as my entire world gets completely thrown into boxes, U-Haul trucks, cars, and (eventually) to my new home, and our new Silicon Valley offices. However, everything is set up there… wired for sound, internet, Wi-Fi, TV, power… it’s good to go. I just […]
At my new home in Silicon Valley, I signed up for Comcast. Now, you might be asking why, especially in light of those painful-to-watch new TV ads that they’re running (seriously, who came up with those? I want to know so he/she/they can be on my list of people that I Hope They Fail). The […]
This is an exciting time for me personally. Moving to Silicon Valley, assembling pitches for investors… actually doing some programming (oh snap, Chris can code!), and assembling all the business building blocks to make sure things keep going. In short, I’m busy. But, the most exciting thing, is knowing that you have The Next Big […]
I haven’t written before on the Hulu vs Boxee battle that is unfolding, and a couple of folks have asked me to chime in. As a reference, while I have used both apps, I don’t use the pairing of Boxee to access Hulu myself. However, the battle being played out over the interoperability (or lack […]
We don’t yet have the publishing side of things finished, but the MechaWorks Jobs site is almost done with an overhaul. The jobs we need most right now (software development positions) are now up. Run, don’t walk (but please, don’t forget to read the instructions).
Well, paid TV at least. As my last post pointed out, I shut off U-Verse TV service. While it was a bumpy road to get U-Verse setup and trialed… I am moving this month, and it doesn’t make a lot of sense to have tons of TV, when I have tons more work to do. […]
Over the past 48 to 72 hours, Apple has issued a lot of updates, for everything from AirPort to RAW support. I just ran Repair Disk Permissions on a couple of Macs that have gotten all those updates beamed down… and there were quite a few permissions glitches. So, be sure to run Repair Disk […]
There’s a lot of confusion out there over if you can keep AT&T U-Verse Internet without TV or Digital Voice service. The answer is a qualified yes. I won’t go through all the FUD. But, basically, there are a lot of uninformed customer service reps at AT&T, and a lot of people making wild guesses. […]
