Quoted: There are two types of schedule, which I'll call the manager's schedule and the maker's schedule. The manager's schedule is for bosses. It's embodied in the traditional appointment book, with each day cut into one hour intervals. You can block off several hours for a single task if you need to, but by default you change what you're doing every hour.

Aha, I wanted to convert some old tapes and LPs that I have into CDs and MP3s...and they are based right here in Seattle. Perfect!

Quoted: If you're using a consumer grade point-and-shoot Canon digital camera, you've got hardware in hand that can support advanced features way beyond what shipped in the box. With the help of a free, open source project called CHDK, you can get features like RAW shooting mode, live RGB histograms, motion-detection, time-lapse, and even games on your existing camera. Let's transform your point-and-shoot into a super camera just by adding a little special sauce to its firmware.

VeriSign Personal Identity Portal (PIP) is now fairly interesting for secure site logins since Verisign released their iPhone VIP Access 1-time use token app. Really nice not to carry a physical token around (I already carry two).

They support OpenID as well as most major website using PIP One-Click login (banks, craigslist, Amazon, eBay, Facebook, etc). The have a PIP One-Click bookmarklet that enables you to just 1-Click to login when at a registered site.

This is particularly useful as a traveler who sometimes has to use a suspicious machine...now I don't have to enter my password for more sites, just one password that is paired with a 1-time use credential to avoid compromise.

VeriSign's entire business is around security and trust so they are one of the very few companies I might consider trusting my credentials with.
