Web 2.0 has been killing my blog. Recently I’ve been very active on Twitter and Friendfeed so if your looking for me I’ll be there. I’ll save the blog for my long winded ideas and rants. Bye
Time Well Spent.

Today I was delayed twice on my way back to Charleston from Salt Lake City. While I waited for my plane (it was four hours late) I pulled out Agile Web Development with Rails, put on some Coldplay and started learning. Four hours later I almost missed my flight because I was so into it. Thats what I call time well spent. Oh Even though I left at 9 in morning I still got home at 1AM. I hate Airports.

While I was digging around (on digg!) I came across A Google Youtube ad. I now hate them. First you cant even tell its an add I thought it was an embeded Youtube video. Then I wondered why some one would embed a youtube video about the movie “American Gangster” in a post describing Django? So it turned out to be an ad. Oh well.
