Tidbits
Body & Fitness:
Today after a lengthy day at work, Kris and I went to go work out. It is getting a little bit easier now that my body is getting back in shape. It has definitely benefited me more than sitting in front of a PC surfing the web or other blogs. Tomorrow my legs are going to kill.
Entertainment:
I also ordered the Home Media Option which allows you to share photos and music from your PC/Mac, share shows between Tivos, and do remote scheduling from the web. We were charged a one time fee of $99. Tivo was nice enough to provide an SDK which gives specifications and sample code to use to develop your own applications that will work with the Tivo. It's nice to watch shows when I want to and also not miss shows I enjoy due to prior commitments.
Blogging:
The couple who develop MovableType (the software I use to blog) have been working on a competitor to blogspot and other hosted blog solutions called TypePad. They ended up getting funding from Joi Ito. This seems like more of a money-making venture than a social software move. On the other hand, it may lead to the masses becoming more exposed to blogging resulting in more voices out there. There is still much more noise than decent content out there (Hell, I'm mostly noise anyway) but I enjoy reading people like Joi who I don't consider pure noise.
