How to Pick a President

Posted by Pete on October 27th, 2008

Scott Berkun wrote a pretty good primer for anyone out there that’s looking for specific ideas on where to go to make an informed decision on who to vote for.

“I couldn’t stop laughing, and crying, about how, despite our solemn patriotic pride, we have no idea what we’re doing. Although we’re often asked to vote, we (myself included) are generally too ignorant and self-centered to have much of a chance of making a good choice.”

The end of the article gives a 30 minute prep to becoming informed.

Not your average wine snob

Posted by Pete on October 5th, 2008

I’ve only watched one or two of these shows but it only takes a few seconds to realize that this guy is not a typical wine conosoire but still very knowledgable on the subject. I really need to watch this more often.

Blue Screen of Death

Posted by Pete on September 28th, 2008

Surprisingly enough, Microsoft released a screen saver that simulates the dreaded blue screen of death. I haven’t tried it out but it sounds interesting.

A camera, a laser pen, and too much time

Posted by Pete on September 2nd, 2008

I saw someone else do this a while back and wanted to give it a try myself. I set my digital camera on a long exposure, set it up on a mini-tripod in my room and turned off the lights. As you can see, having a laser pen made it pretty interesting.

This is the first one I created (that actually looked decent). It took a few practice tries to get it going but I may add this on to my blog header.

Here are a few more:

This one I had to do after showing Amy and she got mad that I hadn’t made one for her yet :-)
