“Unlike standard word processors that focus on features, WriteRoom is just about you and your text.” I could see using this a lot. I’m a constant victim of my own ability to be distracted. For me, “Multi-Tasking” means “Being distracted by more than one thing at a time”.
Vance redesigns the Bear Hunt site, ditching the blog for a more permanent, static home for his brilliant short film.
Could it be? Dare I hope? FYI, Jeff Magnum headed up one of the most brilliant bands of the 90s, Neutral Milk Hotel. Then he disappeared after just two albums.

Whew. Good news, everybody. I’m going to be a daddy. I am extremely pleased with this news, and at times, incredibly overwhelmed. One thing people keep telling me is that fatherhood changes your life forever. Indeed, I’m sure it will.
One question everybody asks is when’s he or she due. January 12th. That was easy. The other thing I get a lot is people asking me if I plan to find out the gender of the baby. I had no idea people would be so interested in this tidbit of information. I’ve probably answered this question a hundred times. Oh, and the answer is “Not sure yet, we have a good 9 weeks before we need to decide”.
So, all this baby stuff has lots of implications. We’ll be doing some home improvement and remodeling over the next few months, and a bunch of decisions to make about baby stuff, traveling, job stuff, our house, money etc. But honestly, just like everything else, we’re taking it one step at a time and one decision at a time.
…Jon waxes via Keynote presentation the virtues of clogs. I heartily agree.
A lovely app to add mustaches to any picture. Great way to start the day – especially if starting your day doesn’t involve any work. Maybe more of an afternoon doldrums app.
Amaaaaazing student animation from Gobelins, the incredible French animation school.
Lots of great UI tweaks making the site feel much faster. Nice to see them shed the flash.
