Thoughts and things I care to share

Christmas Vacation…

I’ve taken two weeks off for the Christmas & New Years holidays, starting today. Okay, that acutally adds up to 15 days out of the office, but who’s counting ๐Ÿ˜‰ ! Aside from celebrating, resting, relaxing and snowmobiling, I’m going to work on a number of ideas related to blogging. As strange as it may be for me, I’m finding this new medium (I know its been around awhile – I’m slow) interesting, with the possibilities of a great future.

Merry Christmas & Happy New Year!

Exclusive Preview of Opera Mini!

Opera is offering an exclusive preview of their Opera Mini browser for mobile phones – note that this is not targeted just at smartphones, but at regular “cell” phones! I’ve tested the new mini-browser on a Nokia 6600 on the T-Mobile network, and it works great. To download the browser directly to your phone, point your existing browser to http://mini.opera.com.

Blogging

Hmmm, an interesting idea struck me while at work today – actually an idea for a new opportunity. This requires an in-depth understanding of the blogging culture and what drives it, feeds it, interests it. This is kind of strange for me as I’ve historically been focused on hardware, operating systems, etc…

BlogRolling

Just got done setting up a BlogRoll over at BlogRolling to manage my link list. Works pretty well! I’ll be working to keep the link list up to date – the current list is a number of sites that I’ve been reading for quite a long time. I highly recommend checking them all out, as they have fantastic information that is always up to date. Also, many of these site have friendly, helpful forums as well. Check them out!

Technorati

OK, I’ve “claimed” my blog over at Technorati, don’t know if it will generate much traffic, but thought it may be interesting to do (I’m ranked 1,033,836th by the way). Interesting feature being able to search a blog directly from the Technorati site.
