The Waiting is the Hardest Part







The Waiting is the Hardest Part

The Waiting is the Hardest Part 01/22/2004 02:41 AM

[This is part of a series of posts on the home buying process I'm going thru. To see the full set, visit the house category archives.] I put an offer on a townhouse today. I've supposed to hear back by 9pm, but my realtor just e-mailed me to say she hasn't heard anything yet. Grr. I'll say know more when I know more. Needless to say, it's been a completely insane day. The housing market in the Bay Area is...

Hardest core person so far


Hardest core person so far 02/10/2004 02:44 AM
The hardest core person encountered so far on this trip is Eric Duquenoy (http://eduquenoy.chez.tiscali. fr).  He left France a little more than two years ago in a smallish 4WD diesel Mitsubishi, drove down through French Northwest Africa, shipped his car/home from Togo to Brazil, drove down to Ushuaia, Argentina, then came up the West Coast of South America as far as Ecuador before shipping the car up here to Panama City (there is no road link between Columbia and Panama and it is dangerous to drive through Columbia).  Eric is a 44-year-old former computer programmer who sleeps in a pop-up mattress/tent mounted to his car's roof (similar to what you see at http://www.loftyshelters.com/ ).  Eric and I met in the old city this afternoon and he gave me a lift back to my hotel where I discovered the hardest core element of all in his story:  the Mitsubishi is unairconditioned.

John Lautner's Chemosphere: part
Jetsons, part Bond and vintage L.A.
Modern.
04/07/2005 12:53 PM
The most modern home built in the world. "From the outside it looks like a spaceship you cannot enter. But if you go inside, it feels very cozy… very Zen and calming. Maybe because you are floating above the city, in the sky". John Lautner's Chemosphere residence is the product of a fortuitous union of architect, client, time and place. Leonard Malin was a young aerospace engineer in late-1950s L.A. whose father-in-law had just given him a plot north of Mulholland Drive, near Laurel Canyon. The only catch: at roughly 45 degrees, the slope was all but unbuildable. Lautner sketched a bold vertical line, a cross, and a curve above it. "Draw it up," he told his assistant. Now publisher Benedik t Taschen owns Chemosphere (NSFW), and after 20 years of neglect the house has been beautifully restored (.pdf) by Frank Escher.

My GPS navigation system should arrive today. I forewent all birthday and Chanukah gifts from my family in order to build up a fund for the device, a Garmin 2610. It's a perky little number that sits on your dash and tells you, in a silky voice that forgives all your directional transgressions, how to get from A to B. I'm not a particularly good driver to begin with, but I spend most of almost every trip trying to envision how the road I'm on links up with the road I'm trying to get to. The rest of the...

It's All Over Now but the Waiting


It's All Over Now but the Waiting 06/22/2005 02:19 AM

I’ve finally been able to post a few things because for the first time in about three weeks, I’m not spending my nights working on grants. In Illinois, 2006 LSTA grant submissions were due Friday, June 17, so it’s all over but the waiting now. Which is a killer, because I’m very excited about both of the grants MLS is involved in.

  1. MLS submitted a grant to create an online, statewide book discussion group for audio ebooks called “One State, One Listen” by adding simultaneous use titles from netLibrary/Recorded Books and OverDrive to ListenIllinois. Of course, I think it would be totally cool, but we’ll see what the grant reviewers think.
  2. MLS is also mentioned as a supporting agency in the big gaming grant I mentioned last month. Aaron submitted the grant under the Thomas Ford Memorial Library, and we ended up with 23 participating libraries out of 35 applicants. Response was incredible, and I’m truly sorry we couldn’t take every one of them. Everyone that read the grant loved it, and we have some mighty big plans if we get it. This will truly be something never before seen in the library world.

So now we wait until September to hear back. I don’t want to say much more until then, so light a candle for us!

Oh, and thanks to Su Bochenski for driving all the way to Springfield to make sure they were there on Friday before the deadline!

Waiting for SyndiCon I


Waiting for SyndiCon I 03/06/2004 01:48 AM

So BloggerCon II is scheduled to take place on April 17 this year, again in Boston at Harvard.

Happy: there will be a session on weblogs and libraries!
Sad: I have no budget to attend (although I'm really pushing Steven to go).

I'm glad there's a follow-up and that these folks will continue exploring the impact and potential of blogging, but I'm also ready for SyndiCon (or AggregatorCon or whatever you want to call it). As evidenced by Will Richardson's vision among other things, it's time to take syndication to the next level - make it more user-friendly, integrate it into other tools, figure out what users want, and in general take RSS to the next level. Same types of sessions - education, politics, business, libraries, journalism, etc.

The RSS Winterfest was a good start, but it's difficult to over-emphasize the value of this type of conversation taking place in-person, face-to-face. In addition, how great would it be to include an "RSS Hackfest" (led by Andrew Grumet) to get us BitTorre nt + RSS, authentication, better customization, metadata, and more?!

Waiting for the sunset ... at 9:30 pm 12/27/2004 08:06 PM

I've arrived at the Hotel Fundador in Santiago, Chile (free wireless in the lobby).  It is difficult to fault Chileans in the department of hospitality.  One of this Weblog's readers, Jorge Tambley, picked me up at the airport on Sunday morning and dropped me off at the hotel.  Then he came back a couple of hours later to invite me to lunch with his wife and kids.  Then he took me to the small airport to hunt for flight schools and onward to the various neighborhoods of Santiago.  Jorge provided some insight into the world of the Chilean computer programmer.  Things seem to be done on a somewhat smaller scale than in the U.S.  The programmer needs to be more in contact with the client, with the users, and more aware of business problems and how to solve them.  Consulting rates and real estate prices are in a more favorable ratio than in the U.S.  A top programmer might earn $70/hour and a newly constructed small condo in Santiago sells for $25,000.  A reasonably nice house is $100,000 and a Las Vegas-style McMansion is $225,000.

With some very kind assistance from Cristian Levy of Amity Tours (http://www.amitytours.cl/) I've begun to sketch out a trip to Valparaiso (Dec 30) and La Serena plus environs (Jan 2-8). 

It is 8:30 pm now.  Only about one more hour of daylight...

The company recognizes the challenges associated with trying to break into a market dominated by x86-based servers running Linux or Windows, but Apple's strategy, says product line manager for...

I'm tired of waiting. The iPhoto book printing service never did arrived in Singapore, and I doubt the iTunes Music Store will ever materialise here either. So, I'm throwing this out, instead, to the Scobleizer: when will Microsoft bring its Media Center PC to Singapore?

P.S: Sheal Israel: Scoble is an evangelist for Microsoft and is totally enthused about its technology. What is news is that Scoble, at times, is among Microsoft's toughest critics... He's the most honest company evangelist youwill find, anywhere.

And should IT managers delay server purchases until Madison is released?
