At Minicon
Mar. 22nd, 2008 07:30 pmI finally got my ass to Minicon at 6:30pm, sadly too late to visit the dealers room and artshow. I spent too much time today playing with the new TiVo's. The Comcast installer finally showed up around 2pm, and then spent 1.5 hours working with the TiVos to get the working with the new multistream cablecards.
Then I started playing with coverting a downloaded Torchwood divx file to play on the TiVo. This required converting the file to mpeg 2, and the triggering the trandfer of thefile from the PC to TiVo, which appears to take a long time. I wonder if that can be sped up.
Now I'm sitting in the a Deconstructing Identity in the Future panel wit Elise Matthesen and Eleanor Arnason. Hense the picture.

We're docked back in Fort Lauderdale. It was a great week of hanging out with our friends Sam & Andrew and Jeff & Jeff, who were also our table-mates this cruise.
Bruce Valanch was our group entertainment, and he was very fun. Now we have to get our butts off the boat.
Cya back home.

Docked at Key West
Nov. 26th, 2007 10:28 amWe arrived at Key West at 7am. We slept in a bit longer and then caught a trolly tour of the town. Just got done with that and now we're walking around.
In Ft Lauderdale
Nov. 24th, 2007 03:10 pmWe've landed and are now in the mass waiting for our luggage.
Plane to Fort Lauderdale
Nov. 24th, 2007 01:11 pmThis plane is the biggest that I've been on for a while. Not quite as big as our international flights, but larger than any of our domestic flight in the last seven years.
Is it just because we're flying on Delta and not Northwest? Maybe we should try flying on other airlines more often. I can get over my dislike of extra stops.

I finally figured out how to get my Cingular 8125 to work as modem for my laptop, via a bluetooth tether connection.
Now, the real question is this something that I want to do, and is it worth the cost?
My friends out there who use Cingular and tether your laptop. Have you been charged for it? I have the Media Max package for $19.99, which has given me unlimited net acces on my PDA phone for the last year.
BTW: Here is the web page where I found the directions to set up the tethering.
