just watched macbreak (a popular podcast with Leo Laporte) live and
turned around to see Sinbad standing next to me! didn't have the nerve
to strike up a conversation but I always knew he was a big mac fan!

on the train in…

here's a cool shot I snapped from the train while watching the live
blog of the keynote with my iPhone.

the motion of the train seems to have skewed this pic in a very cool
way!

hello from Macworld!

hello to my fellow mac travelers… I'm going to be at Macworld San
Francisco for the next two days and thought you might like to follow
along.

it's a journey a long time in the making for me so I want to make the
best of it and remember as much as possible, so I'll be blogging my
discoveries and experiences as they happen so you can share with me
the excitement.

as I write this I'm waiting in Palo Alto for the train to SF. though
it is cold and foggy, my spirits are bright and clear. if you're a
SERIOUS mac fan you are watching one of the many liveblogs of the
keynote right now as I type this. Since I didn't spring the $250 for
the keynote ticket, the one I'm using is the iPhone formatted version
at macrumorslive.com

after the keynote is over, the fun begins. bookmark my maccog blog and
check back for updates over the next two days to get pictures and
commentary on the best booths I find. better yet, subscribe to my RSS
feed with apple mail or safari and leave lots of comments for me to
let me know what you think and that you're paying attention!

WiMAX… would be very cool to have.

This gets me excited about the upcoming maybe-announcement by Apple of the MacBook Mini… I would love to have a cutting edge new standard like WiMax on my laptop!

here I come, Macworld!

Having the best airport salad EVER in the Bob Hope Burbank airport and
getting psyched for the future being bright 🙂

this is going to be the first industry tradeshow I've been to since
I've stopped collecting comics! and that was a long time ago for this
old man!

How to Manage Your Passwords

A Digital Life is rich with lots of great things, but keeping track of the many many passwords you’ve set up over the years is not one of the greatest. 
This article on a cool new search engine called Mahalo.com will provide some great tips and help you weigh the pros and cons related to managing this lifelong challenge…

http://www.mahalo.com/How_to_Manage_Your_Passwords


If you choose the password management software route, I would suggest most people just need to learn how to use Keychain Access (in the Utilities folder of every mac) or 1password, a great third party solution has even more features, and is part of the software package deal called MacHeist which you should check out if you’re at all into extending the usefulness of your computer with 3rd party software… this is a great deal…
