Freshly rumpled.

No, I didn’t forget about you. I’m back from what turned out to be a substantially relaxing break in Victoria. Four days of inhaling volumes of the spring-like air on Vancouver Island, walking through blocks of antique shops and used book stores, listening to robins twittering songs that won’t be heard in Calgary for at least another eight weeks, and just generally hanging out with good friends. Back in the saddle, I’ve discovered that a number of interesting developments merit some attention. Some are work related, and as per usual, some aren’t. The Veer design team ponied up for a couple boxes of Jaguar and are now knee-deep in dabbling with OS X. Cripes. This means I’ll need to make the official switch sooner than later. And if that wasn’t enough to make me miss my chair whilst negotiating a sit, Getty Images has finally made the announcement that they’re pulling the plug on eyewire.com, and rather sloppily if you ask me. However, stay tuned for further developments along this particular theme. Wink, wink. Nudge, nudge. Oh, I’m such a tease. Last of all, I found that you can now run Linux on your iPod. Why? It doesn’t matter. Just be happy that you can.
