This is the last day I spent out at the cabin I had rented at Sleeping Dog Farm so I could make some serious progress on my book. I’ll be back tomorrow with two fresh posts, but I’ll leave you today with this post from the Tumblr archives which goes into my decision to make […]
Today isn’t Pi Day for me. Never has been, never will be. That’s because today is my father’s birthday. I don’t get to see or talk to my Dad much these days. I think we’ve had a bit of a “cat’s in the cradle” thing happening since I left Ontario over 13 years ago. He
I’m still cabin-bound working on my book, so here’s another post from my old Tumblr archives. I think this one is pretty fitting considering what I’m doing right now.

Back when I was doing the Work Awesome podcast, I had the pleasure of interviewing Jesse Jacobs for one of the episodes. He is the founder of Samovar Tea Lounge (based in San Francisco), and occasionally writes over at his weblog, RealRitual. One of the things that we chatted about after the recording was how
In this installment of the Goodbye Google series, I tackle one of the more daunting missions: finding a way to read my RSS feeds on all my platforms without having to use Google Reader as the ultimate source. It’s important to note that I do almost all of my RSS reading on my iPad, and
