Let's hear it for The HOTSOUP.com team, Republican strategists Matthew Dowd and Mark McKinnon; Democratic strategists Carter Eskew, Joe Lockhart, Michael Feldman, and Chip Smith, Internet gurus Allie Savarino, John deTar, and Bart Barden; and former Associated Press political reporter Ron Fournier. These guys seem unaffected by virtually every development on the internet since 1999.I can

This move is such a killer. I'm not even taking the brunt of it. Poor D. Hopefully the true madness ends today and he can just sleep for 20 hours. Soon comes the garden-variety daily craziness of alighting temporarily in the dwellings of our friends, dispatching stuff to our basecamps and incrementally organizing some of the truly miscellaneous boxes in storage. In short, we look forward to

One of my current challenges is to innovate project management in a system that works pretty well. In other words, products/services deliver pretty predictably, when there is critical path slippage, mitigating strategies are put in place, products and services are regularly rated as satisfactory or better, and, in the big picture, performance is break-even.So, I come to this task with the

So, we're moving. It turns out that ever since we moved in, my friend D. has been thinking of ways to make a pully system work so that we could offload heavy stuff without muscling it down three narrow lights of split staircases..flickr-photo { border: solid 2px #000000; }.flickr-yourcomment { }.flickr-frame { text-align: left; padding: 3px; }.flickr-caption { font-size: 0.8em; margin-top: 0px;

It's got to be the cool pics and the personal journal commuter/transit theme. Oh, and the recipes, and the occasional bhangra sound files. And the fact that it's hip and London-based (which just seems inherently hip from the standpoint of my current location -- Seattle).Oh, and it still has a link to built by microveldt. So if you haven't checked out Route 79 why dontcha see if you like it?

I love design like this. It's wrapping existing technology in such a sensible, real-life app sort of way that I sit up and say, "now why didn't I think of that?" I think it would be cooler if the clock were analog...

Getting into the swing of a new job is a real challenge. New people, new ways of doing things, different challenges, trying to take get a grip on the clients and the mission — it’s a hell of a lot of intake in a compressed time. But it’s fun! And a bit scary!I am working for for an environmental non-profit technology innovations and strategy group as a Project Manager. It’s interesting

But I'm still playing around with this damn blog. What will it cover? -- technology, urbanism, politcs, project management for activists, maybe some other stuff. Will I podcast? -- dunno. Why should you care? -- dunno.

This is a re-purposed blog. Hey now that I've typed it, I like the title. I may have to start saying "ignore the archives" and see what people make of it. It's kind of like "don't look back."
