New year coverage for 24 hours

on http://live.twit.tv I am seeing Leo up already doing the Australian new year. TWiT.tv has many good tech programs, there is a large archive of them there.

Happy new year!

Jibjab has a pretty fun collection of year end videos: 2013 2012 2011 2010 2009 2008 2007 2006 2005 just watched them all :)

up all night, small dnoations welcome in lte, bit or dogecoin so I can see how this works

I hate it when I have a big day ahead of me and I am so excited that I am up all night before. Tomorrow is filled with driving to the airport for a drop off, than visiting my second favorite office, the first being in Vancouver and looking forward to, what I hope is as good a lunch as last week, after doing a deployment. next I will do some changes to another landscape and drive home for a late night deployment, meanwhile I am getting another wallet installed and it is syncing with network, 235 weeks behind, wow, should have done this long ago.  Anyhow since I converted all my holdings to a Casascius oin, 175N62LZSPXJMXPXJZrRr6PgqKGLdt3N6n is empty so I can't play with it, now I need a way to earn some bitcoin to start playing with it as I won't rip off the hologram from the coin. Feel free to opine what wallet to use or cryptocurrency, LiteCoin sounds interesting to me.
 I also created a wallet at blockchain.info with this address: 14xu7az3NgJLku2KVV3QidCZBnzXRJxn85 next I need to find some coin so I can start experimenting. I have many questions I need to answer, however if I am to give a talk at SCALE12X I got to figure this out soon. I have been reading about http://dogecoin.com/ and it sounds like a joke gone viral so I also setup a https://dogewallet.com
DNPqN9wcTk37HrWgnLebz2FZ7PiXnZ5NDk would be cool to play with these.
 It is late and I better catch up on my zzzzZZZs, like its namesake, this blog is updated when I have too much time on my hands, usually in the middle of the night.
 I willl have to check and see in the next days if anything shows up in these accounts.  I am still trying to catch up on the block chain with bitcoin, 3 weeks to go, it has taken a very long time to sync.

Amiga

"The Amiga was so far ahead of its time that almost nobody—including Commodore's marketing department—could fully articulate what it was all about. Today, it's obvious the Amiga was the first multimedia computer, but in those days it was derided as a game machine because few people grasped the importance of advanced graphics, sound, and video. Nine years later, vendors are still struggling to make systems that work like 1985 Amigas.

— Byte Magazine, August 1994"

For those who wax nostalgic over the Amiga, you can run it in your favourite browser now!

Market down

Seeing that market is a bit jumpy today, shorts are doing OK finally I read up on sleeping better, while I was trying to find a way to keep warm since someone here doesn't believe in setting the thermostat at a reasonable temperature, rather simply overheating before going to bed, not a great strategy. I might need to find some kind of blanket tent, however that baby toy is a bit expensive.
