Well I really am enjoying these Instagram updates, but I think instead of 1 week intervals I will be doing them every 2 weeks. It makes it easier and I can show you more photos in more of a gallery. So here is the Instagram update for 11-9-11! [nggallery id=2]
Some New Shows…Late 2011 Edition
Since I have been really working my a** off gearing up for the holiday season I really have not gone out that much. Usually at the end of a long day I try to wind down and relax by watch some TV…well Hulu mostly. Through Hulu I have discovered some great new shows, going through…
Steve Jobs 1955 – 2011
I’m sure by now you’ve heard that Steve Jobs passed away yesterday of cancer at the age of 56. This was shocking and sad news to many people, myself included. For those who do not know Steve Jobs co-founded Apple Computers with Steve Wozniak in 1976. Over the years he has been the visionary behind…
The Art of Flight
Back when I was in high school I was really in to skateboarding and snowboard, actually one of my first websites was a skateboarding website! After high school though I really lost interest in both skateboarding and snowboarding. I think the main reason was that I did not have that many people to go with…
Typical Haters…
I think just about everyone has at least one hater. You know someone that has to say something negative about everything that you do, that takes the time out of their day to try and bring you down. We all know one person in our life that does this and if you are in any…
Logging the Hours This Week!
A while back I logged my hours and I came out only working 20 hours a week! This was back in 2007 so how many hours a week and I working now in 2011? Well at the end of the week we will find out! I feel like I am much more productive these days…
Becoming Personal Again…
Well the other night I went back and read every post I’ve ever written on this blog. I think I just wanted to look back over the past 6 years, but I noticed something. Up until a few years ago I was really being personal, talking about what was going on in my life, how…
Kitchen Confidential
I watch a lot of cooking shows, probably because I enjoy cooking so much. Many of the shows I watch for free on Hulu. A few days ago I was watching a show on Hulu and a commercial came on for a show called Kitchen Confidential. The show looked really funny so I decided to…
The I Am Still Music Tour Pittsburgh
A few weeks ago Pittsburgh hosted the I Am Still Music Tour featuring Lloyd, Keri Hilson, Far East Movement, Rick Ross and Lil Wayne. Recently I have been working with a local rapper named Frzy and he was picked to play at the VIP tent so of course he asked me to come along. I…
How I am Using The Cloud
I started using the Cloud a few years ago and now it seems I do everything on the cloud, like right now I am using the cloud to write this blog post using Google Docs. Using the cloud is such a convenience because it makes it so I do not have to have a ton…
Hacking My Sleep – Part 2: Tweaking
A couple of weeks ago I started to plan out how I would hack my sleep. Making it possible to fall asleep faster and easier and being able to wake up refreshed. As I said in my earlier post I’ve always had trouble sleeping, especially falling asleep. After doing some research I found some methods that would help me and I have been testing them over the past couple of weeks. Let’s start with that I am doing…
Google Plus Review – A Week In
It seems the buzz all around the internet for the past couple of weeks has been about Google’s new social platform Google Plus or Google+. We have seen Google social things before like Buzz, which really did not catch on, but it seems many people are embracing Google+. Google+ is a social network, but what makes it different from Facebook? Well first off Google+ does not have games or 3rd party apps at this time. This means you are not getting stupid requests for apps and for people asking you to help them in Mafia Wars or something like that.
5 iPhone Apps July 2011 Edition
If you are anything like me you carry your iPhone with you everywhere and it is more than just a phone. To me it is my way of connecting with the world when I don’t have access to a computer. There are a ton of iPhone Apps out there, but what ones am I using the most and why? Here are the top 5 iPhone Apps I use the most right now.
Hacking My Sleep – Part 1: Planning
One of the biggest problems I’ve faced since I was young was being able to fall asleep. It would take me 1-2 hours or even more to fall asleep after actually going to bed. I think this is because I always have a lot on my mind and I think about what all I have to do the next day. Wasting 1-2 hours falling asleep makes me get less sleep, which is never good. Also for the past month probably I have not had a morning where I woke up and felt refreshed. It seems I wake up and I always still feel tired. This obviously affects my work so I knew I had to do something about it.
Some Hidden Gems in Highland Park
I am lucky enough to live right beside one of the biggest parks in the city of Pittsburgh, Highland Park. If you didn’t know Pittsburgh has many city parks and they are great places to get away from the office. For me living right next to one is very convenient, that way I can just…
