Jobster
Yes, I thought so. That is a woman with a mustache on Jobster:
Just for fun, by the way, here’s my profile on Jobster. I don’t quite like the results as much as my resume, but hey - fun to try.

New Netscape: Doomed
I’m going to go out on a limb here and say the New Netscape is doomed.
It won’t be successful, people won’t do what Netscape wants them to do, and Netscape will revert back to something more like what it used to be within 6 months.
Netscape is not a Digg-ish site: people can “vote” for their […]
Why I don’t have HDTV
I love gadgets and technology and cool new stuff, but I don’t have HDTV.
Why?
This is why.
But the biggest problem is now we have 17 different boxes to power on to watch TV, and they have to be powered on in a certain order and with a certain remote control. And running Windows as the core […]
Jason Fried on Collaboration
I tried to watch Jason’s presentation at Collaboration Loop tonight.
Unfortunately Collaboration Loop uses Windows Media player, and it’s driving me nuts.
it keeps stopping part way
the play head is not scrubbable, so I can’t restart it partway
and when I try to give them some feedback, the feedback form is braindead
I’ve noticed that others are having trouble […]
Darl McBride is the guy everyone loves to hate.
Current chief executive officer of SCO, the company that’s suing IBM over its support of Linux (and will, if successful, sue just about anyone else using Linux), Darl used to work for the FranklinCovey Company. So did I.
FranklinCovey is a personal and organizational effectiveness company. If […]
Check this out.
It reminds me of Apple’s Piles concept, which never really saw the light of day. But this is much cooler, and may be a significant step forward in UI design … if some big company takes the hint.

Niko Nyman disagrees with the idea that Bumptop has possibilities. Some good […]
War of the spiders
What’s up with Yahoo!’s Slurp?
That’s the question I was asking myself last week as I was peering at my blog stats. More specifically, the stats for which robots had been visiting, sucking, spidering my sites.
Yahoo! Slurp is visiting my sites almost constantly … in this 7-day period it requested a file (image, page, you name […]
I am not a person who likes to try new core applications just for the heck of it. I seriously value aesthetics in all my core applications. And a web browser is, to me, a core application. Maybe about as core as you can get.
Which explains why I have never switched to Firefox.
But I’m trying […]
Passion in work and life
I had lunch with a colleague today. He’s young, smart, and creative … and in a job where he cannot possibly exercise all his talents.
(Kind of the way I like to think of myself!)
But he has a good-paying job. And a mortgage. And 3 kids. And a wife.
So it’s hard. Hard to take the plunge. […]
Google calendar on Safari
Good news - Google Calendar now supports Safari.
I have been using Firefox only for Google Calendar the last couple months … now I can go back to Safari as my only browser.

Although, I have been tempted to try out Flock …
