Thanks Bill

Posted by Howard | January 30, 2006 .

Bill, as in Billmusic.net, has offered up a free copy of their album “Birthday Suit” for download to interested listeners. I heard about this on the Daily Source Code from the other day. Downloaded and enjoying it – the song “Sound Scientist” is the ‘hit single’ in my opinion, the other songs are good but [...]

Outlook, Clear Context and MindManager Pro GTD

Posted by Howard | January 30, 2006 .

I’ve been using the excellent “Clear Context” plugin for Outlook to help me organize my incoming mail stream into tasks in Outlook. I like the way you can almost instantly turn mail into a task. I also use ActiveWords to copy the body of a mail message into a task if I want to do more [...]

Userland - thanks for nothing

Posted by Howard | January 30, 2006 .

Userland software took down all the old weblogs - no notice. My howardgr.editthispage.com is gone - including my tale of my experience on 9/11.
An email asking for a fee or offering a download of the data would have been nice.
No, I haven’t touched it for a while. Yes, I would have liked to have it. [...]

more thoughts on Web 2.0

Posted by Howard | January 27, 2006 .

Interesting discussion of Web 2.0 over at http://infotangle.blogsome.com/2006/01/13/the-hype-and-the-hullabaloo-of-web-20/
Very similar thoughts to what I said at the NYSIA meeting the other night, probably because we both used the Tim O’Reilly bullet points as a place to start the discussion. Tim has the advantage of having framed this conversation very well, and we’re playing in his model. [...]

Posted by Howard | January 26, 2006 .

Interesting piece in the Int. herald Tribune on Google’s decision to work with China’s censorship machine. Similar to MS and Yahoo, of course. Submitted for your consideration without comment.

NYSIA Panel on Web 2.0

Posted by Howard | January 24, 2006 .

I was happy to create and moderate the NYSIA panel on Web 2.0 last night. As I was up on the podium it was tough to tell how it went, but I got some very positive feedback afterwards, as well as in email, which makes me feel like people got value and knowledge by attending. [...]

Ok, it was too hot, and I complained. Now the air system is set to “air conditioning” and it is 20 degrees outside.
Hence it is 55 in my office.
News flash, since I took this shot it is up to 59.
I’m sure they’ll get it up to 78 again right in [...]

The other day at work, it was too hot. In fact, 78 in my office I believe understated how hot the office was last week.

R.I.P. EJ’s Luncheonette

Originally uploaded by HowardGr.

The long-standing EJ’s, always good for breakfast or a quick lunch, has closed.
I haven’t been there for a while, which, if multiplied by a lot of people who knew it was there and didn’t go probably contributed to it’s demise.
I had scheduled breakfast there this am, but we had to go elsewhere.
