Since signing up for Twitter I had used Twhirl as my client. I really prefer using a desktop client over Twitter’s website or other sites. It is nice since I’m running dual displays so I can have Twitter and other related clients on 1 screen and my work on the main screen. When using Twhirl…
Experiencing Conferences on the Web

I guess after 21 this is the next big birthday…Well I turn 25 today! Thinking back on the last 25 years of my life is crazy, just thinking that I’ve been alive for 25 years is crazy in itself. When you are young you always imagine what you will be doing when you are 25…
Getting Into Tea
Surprisingly enough I had never had any type of tea up until last year. The first tea I had was at Pho Minh, a Vietnamese place here in Pittsburgh. I really enjoyed it and started looking into tea, and since I watch Diggnation and follow Kevin Rose on twitter, I learned about loose tea. So…
