Wow, I was wanting to move my Filezilla info from one computer to another and discovered this vulnerability, it seems like a kind of big one to me, doh! This guy in New Zealand seems to have a solution, I might check it out.
Hi all! I spent a long time looking for this solution and thought it might help some other people. If you have an iPhone with an unlocked Gevey Sim chip you need to turn off your location services and your WiFi in order to get the Edge network to work again. I spent a long time rebooting airplane mode etc. like all of the other directions, but then I found a little post on comments on somebody’s YouTube comments after searching for an hour. Once I turned off both the wifi and the location services in settings the edge network which had been conked out for all day started working again, yeah! Thought to put this out there for anyone else who can’t get it to work!
I recently finished a website for a client that was pretty fun. WordPress has come a long way and I love the collaborative nature of it. It’s as if you have a team of co-workers you never met and then you get to pull the best of many worlds together in order to put together a comprehensive data driven website. Fun project to create.
If you ever need a dentist in Bothell, try seeing Dr. David Myaskovsky’s DMG Dental Design. I had work done by him ten years ago and it still seems to be going strong

Loving jQuery and WordPress lately. This post from Nate Armagost shows a great new trend in jQuery and solutions for WordPress Problems.
Sometimes I post these things to give kudos to the people who post so generously their information, sometimes just to remember where I go and what I have seen, this is more than the age of information, it is the age of information overload!
This great tutorial at net.tutsplus.com is an adventure I am going to try this week as I pursue technology just to figure things out. I had heard about how cool HTML 5 is but nobody is really using it yet full on and with complete support in browsers.
I was on Scobelizer today and discovered this really cool company and application called Slideshare. I saw this presentation:
and decided to try it out, it seemed super cool. In fact, I had been trying to figure out a good way to get my Adobe PDF portfolio to go fullscreen and be viewable the way I wanted and their service made it possible and the speed with which their WebApp navigated made me want to learn more about it. You can see the result in an earlier blog from today or here below:
I really like it being viewed in full mode though I discovered that it takes a while for the whole thing to download while embedded.
A bit of a wandering day, but as I continued in my search for technology, I ended up on a website called MiroCommunity.org. This was a really cool site. They have a connected software called Miro Video Player which is sort of Vuze meets the iPod but for video. It’s super cool. What I like best is that you can download videos playing from YouTube locally to your HD without having to deal with in Safari for example Window->Activity and then find the .flv file downloading and then click on it and then use Perian to open it and make the .flv into a .mov or .mp4 or whatever h.264 file format is called. It’s super handy. Especially if you are in the middle of nowhere like in Costa Rica or other places with no internet (Costa Rica is a lot better on the net two years later though I look at my old post with a SpeedTest upload of .34 and download of .64mb/s and laugh being back in the States again).
So, it was a fun day. I decided to create yet another website and created a community video website called nio.mirocommunity.org It’s a really web building application for video. It really leverages other services like YouTube and Vimeo and is quite easy to use.
I also upgraded my WordPress theme as I am going to dive into it big time this week. It totally killed my custom design on the website, but c’est la vie, it’s going to challenge me and I am looking forward to it.
“An anecdotal story: A friend of mine was at meetings at Apple and Microsoft on the same day. And this was in the last year, so this was recently. He went into the Apple meeting (he’s a vendor for Apple), and as soon as the designers walked in the room, everyone stopped talking, because the designers are the most respected people in the organization. Everyone knows the designers speak for Steve because they have direct reporting to him. It is only at Apple where design reports directly to the CEO. Later in the day he was at Microsoft. When he went into the Microsoft meeting, everybody was talking and then the meeting starts and no designers ever walk into the room. All the technical people are sitting there trying to add their ideas of what ought to be in the design. That’s a recipe for disaster.” John Scully on Apple and Steve Jobs in Business Week.

This is why Apple is so up and coming in the world. Why their products are so amazing and functional.
This KAOSSILATOR really rocks it . I have the Kaoss Pad 2 and it is super cool, but wow, seeing this thing rock it makes me think it could be a really great investment in for the studio, maybe next year when there’s more of a cash inflow!
This is a dubstep tutorial that I found on DJTech Tools, a very useful site for DubStep tutorial and while writing this, I just found the following video:
Today was a funny day. Yesterday was an amazing day. The contrast was in what happened. The amazing day felt amazing because of all of the external going everywhere events: Meeting in the valley with a director for composing music on a small film (first time for me) getting Final Cut Pro installed (not working, then later debugged by me (removing the guilty Guitar Rig 2 by Native Instruments FX plug-in), meeting with my friend Janelle and playing the piano, swimming and eating with Didier, and then helping my friend Carly with three errands in the evening. There was so much going on that it just felt great. I also got a phone call and found out that I was going to be curating some art show next weekend and DJing at my friend’s monthly party called Plump put on by Alma Project.
Today was mellower and was just with computers all day long, and it felt strange not as motivating, but less expensive and yet still powerful. Actually made some really easy Craigslist money. Both the internal with the internet and the external with reality have their pros and cons.
I have found it far more fun to post on craigslist then to reply but the two responses that I have received thus far have been interesting as well. It’s amazing what one man with a great idea and a general lack of greed can do to change the advertising landscape in America (though I wish the mobsters at Ebay didn’t own 25% of Craigslist, so tricky, tricky, tricky!).
Posting for the Art exhibit was fun, too, get to see some cool stuff.
Los Angeles is an amazing city for open creative individuals.
