About Me

The Out Campaign: Scarlet Letter of Atheism

Let’s see.  I’m a 40ish year old living in Reno, NV.  I’m married and have two young daughters who are gymnasts.

I’m in a Bachelor’s degree program pursuing a computer science degree and I hope to be done by November, 2010.

I’m not a prolific blogger.  I just like to jot stuff down as it comes to me.  I enjoy engaging in conversations with others who can teach me things.

I’m a computer fanatic.  I’ve been in Windows systems since 1991 when they were rolling out Windows 3.0.  I run a Macbook Pro now that runs the latest build of OS X Leopard and Windows Vista Ultimate.

I’m also addicted to podcasts.  Some of my favorites are Buzz Out Loud, The Apple Byte, CNET Tricks and Tips, various news sites like MSNBC’s Rachel Maddow and Keith Olbermann and many others.

I’ve learned how to do podcasting, but I probably won’t jump off that bridge until I’m ready to make a conscious decision to dedicate significant time in research and production.  I need to make sure I have a subject of interest that will provide a steady flow of topics to allow for a consistent schedule of production.

    Greetings! And welcome to the blogosphere. Just wanted to say hi, since we share a blog name. I’ve also got a blog called The Daily Upload, hosted over on Blogger. Good choice for a name. I’m also glad to see that you’re started to appreciate the Mac as well. Like you, I’ve got lots of computers, but I switched to Macs pretty much full time a few years ago and I”ve never regretted it. And now that Macs can run Windows so nicely, there’s really no reason not to switch over completely.

    Dave, thanks for posting a comment. Our common blog name is even more funny than you think. I just moved to wordpress a couple of days ago. I was on blogger and my blog address was dailyupload.blogspot.com. I never thought to check for *the*dailyupload.blogspot.com.

    Yes, I’ve been in Windows for so long and was so completely ignorant of the Mac OS, that I was reluctant to buy Mac. I just decided it was time. I figured if I can keep a PC running despite the fact that they run Windows, I should be able to handle a Mac.

    You posted on 43folders, asking about web gtd apps so you could switch between Windows & Mac.

    Tracks is one web app. There are some others as well.

    I heard people hear in US are helping those in Iran by letting them use thier computers here in US as servers to get around the crack down by the government.
    I’d like to help. Is there any way I could?
