We went to the Gilroy Garlic Festival in Gilroy, CA this year. Lots of Garlic, and Lots of good food too.

Geo Caching!
Yesterday I went on a Geo Cache hunt and found my first one! If you don’t know what GeoCaching is head on over here and read all about it. Basically, it is a treasure hunt with GPS coordinates. When you find the cache, you can take an object and leave something in return.
I used my trusty Nokia N800 and an iBlue 737 and it looks like I had a more productive time than ThoughtFix at Tabletblog.com, which his post was the inspiration to try it.
I found this at the base of a tree with a couple of sticks and leaves on it. I left a Deutsch Mark in return for a coin that was in the container.
A Two Button Mac?
Will it Blend? iPhone.

The iPhone Demo EXCLUSIVE!
Thank to the Typical Mac User Podcast…we have an EXCLUSIVE demonstration of the iPhone! You won’t see this anywhere else!
Heroes Con
Went to Heroes Con in Charlotte, NC this past weekend with my son and Brother-in-law. We had a good time, and again there was plenty to see. Comics, Collectibles, and artists. If you missed it this year, put it on your calendar for next…
Points of Discover(y)
Zooomr, the photo sharing website, has expanded the Discover feature of the site. Discover shows you what pictures are uploaded with in certain time periods from everyone, your friends, or your contacts in order of Awesomeness*. Previously it was limited to 20 images…Now you can view up to 100 in Discover by click in on the column headers. Very impressive, and easy to see what is going on! Check it out!
* Awesomness is an algorithm looking at 28 different criteria of a photo to determine the most interesting photos.
Cones
Went doing a little photowalking at lunch in downtown Charlotte. The heat today was making me question that decision….I had fun non-the-less.
Zooomr is Back!
Here it is after 13 days, lots of frustration, help from generous companies like Sun, Zoho, and Dell, support from the community and friends of theirs, and sleepless nights …It is here!
I like so many others have been following this effort to what was at first just a site upgrade, that turned into a FULL infrastructure overhaul has been fun, and at times frustrating (in the sense lots of us couldn’t help), to watch. Maybe Kris and Thomas can finally get some rest….after all the bugs are squashed. 😛
