Lucid Points

I spent the best part of the day working on deploying a project to a Windows CE device, specifically a Windows CE 4.2 Symbol scanner with Visual Studio 2003 .Net. It is amazing how primitive the tools are to make the device work with the PC. Microsoft should be ashamed for forcing developers to Google [...]

I spent most of the morning with those attempting to convince the US Marshals to select Fort Smith, Arkansas as their museum location. I played a very small part in this, and hopefully elucidated (it pays to enrich your wordpower, y’all) the points and passion that I feel for the project. The representatives from the [...]

ProphetLine, a pos software company I used to work for, has released a new version of their software that has what many specialty retailers need, but previously could not afford – a retail stock ledger.  With this report and others built into the system, retailers can make incredibly well-informed buying decisions based upon inventory turn [...]

In another case of traditional media starting to “get it”, Gannett is moving to what Wired magazine calls “Crowdsourcing”, but what is more important, Gannett is an old-world tree-killing newspaper finally realizing that to keep readers, they must engage them, and the push-it-and-tell-em-to-like-it days are over.  2007 will be when Web 2.0 hits the mainstream.

Robert Scoble has another excellent 3-part Photowalking post with Thomas Hawk.  I thought the first 3 were better, but it is still an interesting viewing because of the way they make you think about your surroundings to find interesting subjects.  The series (so far) is somewhat light on technical pointers, but good nonetheless.

We visited the new Mount Magazine State Park in July, but forgot to post the photos.  The lodge is quite excellent, although the lunch was not as good as the surroundings would suggest.  Not to say that it was a bad lunch, just nothing spectacular. The scenic photos do not do it justice, since it [...]

I know this is a duplicate post, but I just uploaded this to Google Video to see what would happen.[googlevideo]5695375508804566262[/googlevideo]
