It’s always worthwhile to consider what you want to learn.  There are certain ways to learn all of these things.  The typical paths are defined educations through a university or vocational school.  I’ve been through a few schools now and I can say that they are very good at churning out the same type of [...]

I’ll be transitioning into a new role here in a pretty short amount of time and it’s gotten me thinking about meeting and working with new people a lot.
Trust in an incredibly important piece of teamwork and any relationships in general.  I have a professor who has spent the majority of his recent work on [...]

My output has been relatively low for March and April, but the time has gone incredibly quickly.  I can’t really promise anything different over the next few months as school is wrapping up, I may be taking a trip for a bit and it’s summer time.  Additionally, depending on the time and landing, I’ll be [...]

The good reason for intentionally doing it is that Apple is slightly worried about the new Verizon Android phones (the incredible especially) [...]

It has been six years since television was functional in my home.  Being a time and cash crunched student most of those years, it just seemed like a luxury that I could give up.  Most television shows don’t really catch my attention (with some choice exceptions) so it really worked well.
The biggest issue for me [...]

Marketing music online should not be hard at all.  Way too many times though, bands and labels don’t do a good job.  Quick lesson:  put it out there free, not as a download but as a stream.  Don’t make people sign up for anything or work in any way other than going to a site [...]
