  723. Checking in at answer sites: Questionville, Askville, Yahoo! Answers... No, you don't need a passport to visit Hawaii. AskMetaFilter is still my favorite. Jan 23, 07:22 2007
  724.  
  725. Don't think a backup over the network took. Trying again. Jan 23, 10:52 2007

  810.  
  811. Though I know nothing about sports, found something small to blog for the Superbowl. Go Bears! Feb 4, 00:07 2007

  864.  
  865. Grr. Google's got the hiccups. Google Reader's giving me the "Oops..." error, Google Video is choking (YouTube convergence work?). Fix it! Feb 13, 12:35 2007
  866.  
  867. Falling for the $1.50 Costco combo again. Quarter pound all beef dog with fixings and 20 oz. drink... Can't resist! Feb 13, 14:37 2007
  868.

  872.  
  873. Email woes. Researching locally-hosted TinyURL alternatives. How's Shorty (http://www.get-shorty.com)? Feb 14, 11:58 2007

  902.

  1104.

  1106.  
  1107. After a 5 a.m. call, tweaking an HTML-ified e-mail campaign for a client. I'm so not a marketer. Mar 13, 10:22 2007

  1211. Yes, Apple TV is awesome. In a house with only interference-ridden analog cable service, it's serving the best looking video we've ever had. Mar 24, 00:07 2007
  1212.  
  1213. Posted first impressions of the Apple TV. No, it's not all gushing praise, thank you! http://urltea.com/1s9 Mar 24, 02:35 2007
  1214.  
  1215. Wow, how'd it get to be 1:30 a.m. all of a sudden? Sleepy time. Mar 24, 04:26 2007
  1216.  
  1217. Hmm. Apparently Alex wasn't clear on the basic concept behind chewing gum. Lesson learned! Mar 24, 10:46 2007
  1218.  
  1219. Just met Donna (Champuru) at the Apple Store... of course. Psst... Get the MacBook. Mar 24, 18:11 2007
  1220.  
  1221. Checked out Tropical Smoothie Cafe on Piikoi. Local franchisee is "LOST" extra Timothy "Teddy" Wells. See Flickr! Mar 24, 18:25 2007
  1222.  
  1223. Failed to nap ("Dirty Jobs" was on, the taro farm one). Made spaghetti and salad for dinner. Netflix, Amazon Unbox or Apple TV tonight? Mar 24, 22:56 2007
  1224.  
  1225. Amazon Unbox on TiVo won. Jet Li's "Fearless." Was it dubbed poorly on purpose? Mar 25, 01:07 2007
  1226.  
  1227. Finally checked out Justin.TV. He's talking to a girl in a bar in SF right now. It's surreal. This write-up is cool: http://urltea.com/20r Mar 25, 01:46 2007
  1228.  
  1229. Family's up. Making breakfast. Early Mass again today, then, the First Hawaiian International Auto Show at the Convention Center. Mar 25, 10:13 2007
  1230.  
  1231. At the Hawaii Convention Center for the Auto Show. I'm so uncool, I'm checking out minivans. Mar 25, 12:42 2007
  1232.  
  1233. All auto'd out! Now at Makai Marketplace at Ala Moana for lunch. Pizza for the kids, curry for us. Mar 25, 15:12 2007
  1234.  
  1235. Back home, relaxing. Catching up on e-mail, with Justin.TV in the background. He's getting lunch. Dull yet interesting at the same time. Mar 25, 17:00 2007
  1236.  
  1237. Jen went to see "Zodiac" at Pearlridge with mom. My mission? Keep kids from killing themselves. Mar 25, 18:20 2007
  1238.  
  1239. Posting from Twitterrific. Snazzy. Mar 25, 19:03 2007
  1240.  
  1241. Justin.TV got bumped from Zeitgeist? It's their call, but in "Web 2.0" San Fran, lots of places would pay to have Camera Hat in the house. Mar 25, 20:48 2007
  1242.  
  1243. What a great season finale for BSG. (Could've been a series finale. Glad it wasn't.) So, who's the fifth? Tune in in 2008. Mar 26, 00:22 2007
  1244.  
  1245. Had a good Google Talk chat with Mitchell. Heading up to bed. No holiday for me tomorrow! Mar 26, 01:16 2007

  1248.  
  1249. Happy Kuhio Day. A holiday for some, but not all, in Hawaii. Do you know Prince Kuhio? http://urltea.com/28s Mar 26, 12:06 2007
  1250.  
  1251. Why can't I stop buying domain names? I must be stopped. Until then... what would you do with de.sperate.com? Mar 26, 15:58 2007
  1252.  
  1253. Scobel's on strike. Is silence the answer? Maybe if the void sparks a separate conversation. Troubling. http://tinyurl.com/2f83og Mar 26, 17:04 2007
  1254.  
  1255. Mmm. Content. More later. Home now. Mar 26, 20:46 2007
  1256.  
  1257. Catching up on feeds with Justin.TV in the background. They're trying to talk about site stats without talking about site stats. Funny. Mar 27, 01:02 2007
  1258.  
  1259. Couldn't resist blogging Justin.TV any longer. http://urltea.com/2cw Mar 27, 04:11 2007
  1260.  
  1261. Yawn. Awake and groggy. Stayed up to late blogging, methinks. Mar 27, 08:20 2007

  1264.  
  1265. Posted a "Simpsons" clip to de.sperate.com. What else is a tumble log for but little nothings? Joining a coworker for lunch. Mar 27, 15:04 2007
  1266.  
  1267. Some guy named Mike enlisted Justin.TV to propose to his girlfriend Holly. He's on his knees at a mirror, improving groggily. Mar 27, 20:35 2007

  1272.  
  1273. Time flies when you're brainstorming with brilliant people. Heading home with a million ideas. Mar 28, 00:23 2007
  1274.  
  1275. Seeking Justin.TV fans with more to say than, "Yeah, that guy's gay." Send me a direct message... let's share Justin-watching duties. Mar 28, 01:27 2007
  1276.  
  1277. Heading to Wahoo's Fish Tacos for lunch with a coworker. Mar 28, 14:55 2007

  1284.  
  1285. Blogged "LOST" (http://www.hawaiiup.com/lost) and Justin.TV (http://justintvguide.blogspot.com). Time for bed. Mar 29, 02:44 2007
  1286.  
  1287. Time to make the donuts. Man. This week seems extra long. Might have something to do with the big deadline next week. Mar 29, 08:59 2007
  1288.  
  1289. @davewiner Absolutely you can use XP. I'd recommend it. Vista is only partially supported anyway. But yes, no rebooting. It's seamless. Mar 29, 11:25 2007
  1290.  
  1291. More WordPress and map tool fun. Company orientation in half an hour. Mar 29, 12:23 2007

  1300.

  1302.  
  1303. D'oh. Made it all the way into town without my office keys, flash drive, wallet... Going back. Mar 30, 09:39 2007
  1304.

  1306.
