Location

With Facebook and Google both set to release a location-based app soon, here’s a few things I’d like to see. It seems like a combination of Google Latitude/Maps/Places/Navigation/Buzz would be perfect. Always on and tracking your movements Uses record of previous check-ins to suggest venues to visit (types of venues, hours of operation, price of goods) Nudges you to check-in when...

Photo a Day

dkphoto: I’m going to attempt to post one photo here every day in 2010. The three cameras I will be using are my iPhone, Canon SD1100 and Jenae’s Diana Mini. The Diana mini uses film so if I post a photo taken with the Diana in may be a couple days after it was taken and developed. I’ll make a comment with what camera I used to take the photo. That’s it. Enjoy

Finished Projects

A couple projects that Jenae and I finished lately are a credenza that I built and a vintage chair that Jenae and her mom re-upholstered. Jenae’s dad helped me build the box for the credenza. We built it out of MDF and painted it white. The doors are just made out of a thin piece of wood with an Oak (I believe) veneer that we stained. We took the base and legs off of a hutch that we...

Johnny Cash's American VI: Ain't No Grave Due Out...

Very stoked about this twentyfourbit: Johnny Cash’s next posthumous release in the Rick Rubin-helmed “American” series and first official follow-up to American V: A Hundred Highways from his infamous recording sessions in the months between the death of June Carter and his own last days in the fall of 2003 will hit shelves on the week of his birthday in February of next year. According to the...

My Jailbroken iPhone

Earlier this morning I posted a Twitpic of my iPhone home screen. I got many questions asking about the setup. I jailbroke my iPhone months ago and after a few weeks started noticing some stability issues (apps crashing much more often, slower loading times) and I decided to put the bars up again. Last week I saw a new iPhone jailbroke app called qTweeter that made me decide to go for it again....
