Bring on Firefox 3! FF has been getting some major overhauling done, from the sound of things, and I’m stoked to see what the final version is like. Lifehacker has done a great comprehensive breakdown of what’s coming up, and what’s been worked on (less memory hogging, anyone?) for the new release: Link: Lifehacker Top … Read More
For some reason, I’ve never made it to the Sasquatch Brew Fest. But this year, I do believe, that has to change. Just think of it — downtown on a June day (which here, well, might or might not be nice, you never know), and nothing to do but hang and sample some fine Oregon … Read More
Where is this site going? What do I want to write about? What do my 8 readers want to hear about? Questions like these have been on my mind for a while.

This has been out there for a while, but I’m only recently finding this very nice, very simple margarita recipe from renowned Eugene mixologist Jeffrey Morgenthaler.

Now Red Barn owners Dan and Amanda Beilock have … Read More
This past Sunday night, with perfect clear skies and warm temperatures outside, and Jodie and I done after a day of gardening and some indoor project planning, it was time to grill. In addition to some steaks, red onions and thin-sliced fingerling potatoes, we also grilled up a large broccoli head from our Good Food … Read More
As a long-time fan of HomeSite (though on the Mac I currently dabble in Smultron), to me there’s nothing better than source code-focused HTML and CSS editors. There’s plenty more out there though, and the smashing folks at Smashing Magazine have put together a comprehensive list of some of the best: Link: 35 Useful Source … Read More
Online marketing, like any other field, churns out its share of aphorisms and quips. This is a great collection of things that will bring out a big grin on inner online marketing geek (thanks JP for sending it along!): Link: Favorite Online Marketing Quotes. My favorite: “Being #1 on MSN is like being Valedictorian of … Read More
My first encounter with the legendary Jeffrey Morgenthaler was at Eugene’s now-defunct Bamboo (where El Vaquero is now, at 5th Street Market). My friend Lindsay and I would occasionally nip down there for a cocktail, sushi and some conversation. While I’m more of a beer and wine person, Jodie and I have definitely been getting … Read More
