I'm back

Well - my blog suffered the fate of many - no update for ages.

The poor pathetic excuse - well being a geek gadget guy I HAVE to blame it on technology of course.... I was using the blogger extension for firefox to make updating this blog easy - but I got pissed off with firefox not being very stable on the mac so I got rid of it - and so went my blog client.

But I'm back - using ecto for the moment which seems pretty good - I honestly can't remember why I stopped using it - probably the money they want - I'm such a cheapskate :-)

On the weight loss front - things have been going well - in basically 3 weeks I lost 4 kilos - but I had my birthday recently and put on a kilo in a day (it was a bit of a pigout). Anyway I'm being good again and the kilos are shedding.

Gadget wise - I now have a Palm Zire 72 which is quite funky. I really did miss the palm platform and I can run my favorite app for weight loss - the free EatWatch tool (http://www.fourmilab.ch/hackdiet/palm). It really helps you get past the whole my weight is down today, up tomorrow worries.

I've got the latest ilife 05 and iwork 05 for the mac - they are very cool apps. Most of the bugbears I had with iphoto are gone though I really really really wish I could import the mpeg2 files from my tivo straight into iDVD. Maybe next release...

The only other thing I can think of is that I am seriously thinking of getting a mac mini and ipod shuffle for each of my kids. I should have some cash coming up to pay for it.

Thats all for now !
