FanExpo Toronto 2013 – Friday Fun
Annie and I are going to go to FanExpo Toronto 2013. We are only planning on attending on Friday, the 23rd of August. It should be interesting. Tickets for the single day were $35 per person, which is fairly reasonable. I will, of course, be bringing my fully charged camera.…

Working Without My Laptop
So the last ten days, I’ve been without my laptop, and I’ve had to work from an iPad and my cell phone. I forgot my laptop at my place, all packed up and ready to go, before we went to Annie’s brother’s place. I did the best I could during…

Where Am I Now?
I recently did an interview with Jeff Chandler of WPTavern, and had a great time answering some questions about where I’ve been in the last three to four years. I can’t believe it has been so long since I was last working purely online. I have done a year and…

Motorola X – Not the Cheaper Nexus
So, I am listening to the Motorola X announcement, and while it looks like a great mid-range phone, I’m sad at the separation that Motorola has said they have between themselves and their owners, Google. I knew the specifications of the phone for a while, and it seemed pretty decent.…

Sigma Mount Conversion
One of the most interesting things that any third party lens developer has ever done was just announced. I didn’t think this was possible, but Sigma has decided to create a program that allows you to send in your lens, and have them change which lens mount it is using.…

Holding a Baby
Since my mid-twenties, I’ve wanted to be a father. Yesterday, I got to hold a baby for almost twenty minutes, and I’m not ashamed to say that it really kicked things up a notch when it comes to my emotions regarding a child of my own. You hear about women…

Watching My Weight
So, despite not eating the best over the weekend, I’m still, albeit slowly, trending downwards. My goal, right now, is to lose the weight I’ve gained over the last year, and get back into the 260’s. I am currently sitting around 283 pounds, which is a drop of around five…

Quick Second Class Supers Update
So Annie and I have just put the twenty-second “page” online for everyone to read, and I’ve copied all of our content to a single document to see how long it would be, and it extends outwards to seventy-six twelve point font, 1.5 line height pages. For those that are…

Kingston and Back with a Cousin in Tow
So, this past weekend, Annie and I made the trip up to Kingston where we visited some family, and then returned back to Georgetown, but not without bringing my cousin, Kyle, back with us. He will be staying with me for two weeks in my little bachelor apartment. It is…

Working on Documentation
I have started to shift away from doing support to working on the documentation refresh for Gravity Forms. My first step was to look at the documentation as it exists today. I went through many of the different sections, and tried out some searches that I thought would be common.…

Distributel Internet Tech Support Review
Recently, my Distributel cable Internet connection went down. I called the tech support phone number as quickly as I could and was connected to a support person within five minutes. I was really impressed at how quickly I was connected to a real person, but their usefulness was super limited.…

What Will the Canon 7D Mark II Feature?
Now that the Canon 70D has been announced and set to release at the end of the month, people are getting excited about the Canon 7D II, which I think should be announced early in 2014. That will give plenty of time for people to purchase the Canon 70D, and…
